Narita Bahra KC and Catherine Collins Mitigate Sentencing for Sean and Shiza Harper in High-Profile Case


Narita Bahra KC and Catherine Collins were instructed by ZMS Solicitors to mitigate sentencing on behalf of Sean and Shiza Harper, who were convicted of conspiracy to kidnap and conspiracy to falsely imprison a Senior Coroner.


About The Case


This case attracted significant media coverage from the BBC, Sky News, The Times, and The Independent.


Appearing before Mr. Justice Goss at the sentencing hearing, Bahra KC and Collins represented the Harpers, who had initially defended themselves as litigants in person during their trial. Through comprehensive written and oral advocacy, they advanced arguments demonstrating that the Harpers had been groomed by the primary defendant, who exploited their respective vulnerabilities.


The Court acknowledged this mitigating evidence, recognising the Harpers as victims of manipulation. This was reflected in the sentencing remarks, which were televised due to the case’s gravity and highlighted the defence team’s successful mitigation efforts.
