       @JonathanMBR "advocate of the High Court", do you mean "advocate AT the High Court", or what kind of role is an advocate of the High Court?

       @JonathanMBR Then, if he won all the cases, why arrest him? OK OK don't get me wrong. I understand why. He committed a crime. However, why not just keep a good thing going? I suppose if he lost one case they'd be looking into him though.
