Doughty Street Chambers has an excellent reputation as ‘one of the best criminal sets in the UK’ with ‘quality across the board.’ Kate O’Raghallaigh stands out for her varied practice and experience in recent high-profile cases – she defended infamous Islamist preacher Anjem Choudary at the Old Bailey in relation to allegations concerning his support of and involvement in a proscribed terrorist organisation, namely Al-Muhajiroun, and is currently representing one of the five Bulgarian nationals charged under the Official Secrets Act 1911 with conspiring to commit espionage in the UK on behalf of Russia – a case involving issues of the contemporary application of the Act and the range of admissible evidence under it. Rabah Kherbane is regularly involved in major cases at the Old Bailey – James Wood KC recently led him in the defence of one of the individuals charged with the abduction, torture and murder of Turkish radio DJ Koray Alpergin, who was kidnapped in Tottenham alongside his girlfriend in an empty bar over an alleged debt.
