Riffat Hussain

Findings — machine-extracted (anthropic-batch:claude-opus-4-8); verify against the decision

The SRA alleged that Ms Riffat Hussain, an immigration solicitor at the University of Liverpool Law Clinic, sought to mislead her employer by deleting a self-task and blank template letter from the case management system (Allegation 1.1) and attempted to mislead colleague Ms Carter about her knowledge of a June 2023 Home Office decision (Allegation 1.2). The Tribunal found the deletions occurred but was not satisfied she intended to mislead, noting she retained other June entries, did not alter the decision, contacted the client, and raised the matter herself. On Allegation 1.2, the Tribunal could not rely on Ms Carter's recollection of precise words given the influence of subsequent discussions and CMS review. Both allegations were dismissed with no order as to costs.
