Solicitor Frank Buttimer says decision of French judges to find Ian Bailey guilty of murder of Sophie Toscan du Plantier is grotesque miscarriage of justice | Read more:

Speaking on RTÉ’s Six One news, Mr Buttimer said that people should understand that this was not a criminal trial or proceeding in the way that we would understand in Ireland, but it was no more than a rubber-stamping exercise of the pre-determined guilt of Ian Bailey as far as the French criminal justice system is concerned.

He said there is no such similar supervision under the French jurisdiction. He said that the investigative system in France involves the supervision of their police by their judges and that did not happen in this case. He said that the Director of Public Prosecutions here has long held the view that the so-called evidence on Ian Bailey was gathered in a thoroughly flawed and prejudiced manner.

Mr Buttimer said that in Ireland we will have to examine this case very carefully and establish how this could have happened in the first place.
