Kevin Metzger, instructed by Mr. T Salhan of Salhans Solicitors, secured acquittals for his client on two counts of conspiracy to commit aggravated burglary at the Wolverhampton Crown Court. Having deliberated for 2 days, the jury returned not guilty verdicts following a trial of nearly seven weeks. The prosecution case was that the defendants had conspired to burgle two cannabis farms and intended to use the tools used to enter the prenatal sea as weapons of offence, should the need arise. Two men lost their lives as a result of the actions of the proprietors of the second ‘farm’. The defendant pleaded to two counts of conspiracy to burgle before the trial and will be sentenced next year.
