This is a gross miscarriage of justice for the Bello family. The Academic College of Education was a bonafied college in early 1990s, before the premises were turned into bedsits. The forged documentation linked to this trial was predominantly found in a resident's room. There was absolutely no evidence of financial gain to the Bellos for their alleged involvement in this case, and in short they have been victims, or dare I say, scape goats for a policitally charged agenda, namely student based immigration. The trial itself should be deemed as a mis-trial and from what I know about the case, the Bellos were treated as guilty before they were even tried. It is all very well for authorities to go after an elderly retired couple and accuse them of things that have supposingly taken place over 15 years ago knowing full well they are now old & defensless and the people who use to work around them can no longer vouch for them by giving evidence because they are now deceased or no longer around.  Now attach these poor elderly couple with a false conspiracy charge to a solicitor that is well known but unliked by the authorities you get your verdict. At this present time, a 75 year old Grandfather and 67 year old wheelchair bound Grandmother of 10, who needs 24 care, has been taken from their family into prison. Where is the justice in this?
