A WEMBLEY accountant accused of throwing acid over lawyers and calling them Nazis claims he was the victim of a national conspiracy.

Ashok Mahajan denies trying to blind barristers and a solicitor with hydrochloric acid powerful enough to melt a brick, during a case at the Royal Courts of Justice on October 15 last year.

It is alleged he was asked about his intentions shortly after it happened and said “good, I wanted to blind them – they are crooks and racist,” and “you are all Nazis, there are no Nazis in Germany they are all over here”.

The 54-year-old, of Pempath Place, claims government agencies, the legal system and the police have a “memorandum of understanding” designed to undermine all citizens who seek to challenge the system.

Throughout his trial at Southwark Crown Court he has accused numerous witnesses, including lawyers, a judge, police officers, a court clerk and a court security guard of falsifying evidence.

He also claims the trial judge, Mr Loraine-Smith, is biased against him.

Summing up his defence, the former Belmont Lions Club treasurer said: “This case is a perfect example of how the system frames people and how they murder people.

“We all believe that we are living in a democratic society but do we? We are all controlled by a bunch of politicians, judges, lawyers and bureaucrats.”

The prosecution alleges Mr Mahajan planned the attack, hiding the corrosive substance in a plastic bottle with a sticker taken from his medicine stuck to the front so he could smuggle it into court.

It is claimed he anticipated losing the case and was so furious he decided to exact his revenge by throwing the acid on barrister Richard Liddell, solicitor Clare White and pupil barrister Lucy Colter.

The court heard how the two terrified woman looked down to see each other's tights dissolving due to the acid, while at the same time toxic fumes filled the court room.

Some of the substance got into Ms Colter's eye and she made frantic efforts to clean off the liquid in the minutes that followed the attack.

The jury were today played audio recordings of the incident and the chaos that followed, in which Mr Mahajan can be heard shouting and swearing at those in the court room.

He admits throwing a liquid on the lawyers but says it was water rather than acid and claims evidence allegedly collected in the aftermath was faked by people determined to frame him.

Police officers called to the scene say he told them the substance was salt, acid and drain cleaner and claimed he said “I wish somebody would blow their brains out”.

But Mr Mahajan, who describes himself as a litigating person, told the court one of the officers was a “crook” and was demoted after flogging cigarettes.

He also claims evidence from doctors notes about the nature of the injuries were faked and demonstrated the ability of those who follow the memorandum to invent evidence.

He claims the recording from court was doctored to leave out evidence that would support his case.

The jury will be sent out tomorrow to consider three counts of attempted grievous bodily harm (GBH) with intent.
