Maya Devani, a solicitor from Harrow, was sentenced to 12 months in prison this week after being convicted of conspiracy to pervert the course of justice at the Old Bailey earlier this year. Her client, Timothy Shaun Merchant, received an 18-year sentence after being found guilty of attempting to pervert the course of justice and two counts of attempted murder. Brian Spiro, a partner at Burton Copeland who represented Devani, said: 'We will be pursuing her appeal as a matter of urgency.'
