Sorry, need to correct that.On the Stephen Martin case, the court case never progressed as prior to conclusion of the extradition process, BSAC pressure forced the authorities to drop the case, which probably came on account on that it would be damaging for the industry.
BSAC threw Stephen Martin under the bus. They were of no use whatsoever until a massive furore kicked off and Stephen was lucky enough to have many people back him from the FALSE extradition claim by Malta -- which they pulled the day before the hearing whilst Stephen was held under curfew, ankle tagged and arrested.
BSAC had silently removed the "criminal legal cover" from their insurance.
