These issues shouldn't be conflated. Her initial conviction may or may not be correct. Hopefully we will find out in due course. The support for her is regarding that she should not be struck off because she is a good and safe doctor following the conviction.

I accept there may be some people out there who think she shouldn't have been convicted. My own stance is to be more open minded and get all the evidence available before making unjustified assertions.

Having read Dr Cusack's interview - and I think he is a true hero for the work he has put in to remediate Hadiza - I think very deep questions need to be asked, especially with regards to expert witnesses.
