A solicitor who specialises in representing terror suspects and tells them not to cooperate with police was paid almost £1 million in legal aid last year.Muddassar Arani's firm represented Abu Hamza, dirty bomb plotter Dhirin Barot and three of the 21/7 bombers in recent years.
She has raked in £3.5 million in taxpayer-funded support to help defend extremist suspects in recent years, according to new figures.....The 44-year-old mum of two once boasted in a magazine that those accused of terrorism come to her first.
In the same interview just 10 months before London's July 7 suicide bombs, she claimed the terror threat in the UK was 'deliberately hyped' and said the Government were 'probably guilty of promoting Islamaphobia'.....Mrs Arani, who styles herself a human rights expert, said in a recent lecture: 'The rule of thumb in a terrorist case is: Do not answer any questions put to you.'Directing her remarks at suspects arrested under the Terrorism Act 2000 she added: 'You have a right to silence. Use it. Use that right to protect yourself and others who may be arrested with you.'
