TikTok double murder trial update

Published: 8th August 2023

Adam Kane KC acted for Mohammed Patel, the only defendant acquitted of all murder and manslaughter charges in the TikTok double murder trial. Social media influencer Mahek Bukhari and 6 others were convicted after a 12 week retrial, of double homicides involving a blackmailer threatening to expose his affair with her mother.

Mr Patel, instructing Ibrahim Hussain at Londinium solicitors, ran a cut-throat defence against those convicted.
