Partner Amjid Jabbar comments on the increasing prominence of UK drill music videos being submitted as ‘admissible evidence’ in court cases.

Amjid’s comments were published in The Evening Standard, 10 November 2023, and can be found here.

“If this type of evidence is going to be used, there really should be some form of oversight in relation to how it’s adopted.

The use of language is “a constantly changing area.. as most kids do, a lot of it is simply about rebellion for rebellion’s sake, people don’t actually mean what they say.”
