View Full Version : City magistrate charged with forgery owdlad 15-02-2005, 18:28 A city magistrate has been charged with forgery today, it seems as if even those in supposed positions of trust are abusing them (allegedly) http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/south_yorkshire/4268219.stm Lickszz 15-02-2005, 18:33 Interesting. The details seem a bit sketchy. I'd like to know more about the 12 charges. owdlad 15-02-2005, 18:40 Originally posted by Lickszz Interesting. The details seem a bit sketchy. I'd like to know more about the 12 charges. I wonder why there was so little information on what they have been charged with, but the bit that got me wondering was this. Also appearing on Tuesday was Tariq Lone, 44, of Archer Lane, Sheffield, who faced 12 charges of having a false instrument with intent to deceive. What's a false instrument? Where's Spook when you need him :rolleyes: Twiglet 15-02-2005, 23:10 Originally posted by owdlad What's a false instrument?

Ya can bet your bottom bippy. Kristian 16-02-2005, 00:17 Why were they both tried at Wakefield also? Is this for them to get a fair trial, or to escape the wrath of a jury who knew what was going on? K x tab1 17-02-2005, 18:09 Tariq Lone 44 of Archer Lane is I believe the guy acting as a solicitor providing some imigrant workers with paperwork and advice etc. on their visa applications. I remember he was arrested last year with some of his mates after a News of the World investigation into his shadey dealings. The word is that the magistrate referred to here, became an unwitting participant in some kind of a scam that the crooked solicitor was running at the time of his arrest. Just goes to show don't trust anyone, especially if they happen to be in the legal profession and particularly if they ask you to sign anything on trust. Will post more as I learn about it. saxon51 17-02-2005, 18:12 Originally posted by owdlad What's a false instrument?
