14 th November, Ms Gaisford and arrests
14th November, Ms Gaisford and arrests
DC Baker said that DLA Piper knew in advance about the Police search as they were on site putting labels on materials with the words “legal privilege”. He also became aware after the event that the press had been tipped off about the arrests, something which he considered “disgraceful”.
DC Baker did not believe that Ms Gaisford volunteered information about Mr Deveney’s computer. It was a very busy day and he was overseeing matters and nobody reported the issue to him.
DC Baker said that he did not remember a conversation with Ms Gaisford when she asked where the investigation was going; but said that he did not say that the “powers that be want a result”.
