Court of Appeal sentence reduced - 2021
SL was sentenced to life with in prison for murder. Malik appeared on behalf of SL at the Royal Courts of Justice (Court of Appeal Criminal Division) and successfully appealed the minimum term originally imposed. He was able to argue that the original sentencing Judge had misapplied the correct starting point and failed to take account of the individual circumstances of this particular individual.
This was an example of Malik continuing to fight for his clients beyond the conclusion of the case and his dedication in his pursuit for justice.
