Held on remand for 13 months, Farah Damji's story exposes the brutal reality of how Britain's legal system can become an instrument of violence against women. With no evidence beyond the claims of her former partner, Nigel Gould-Davies, Farah has been denied bail repeatedly despite battling stage three breast cancer and suffering from untreated PTSD.

The Crown Prosecution Service's case has been riddled with errors. First, they claimed Farrah sent harassing emails. Now they've pivoted to claim she "forced others" to send them. Meanwhile, they consistently ignore court orders to produce crucial evidence like Nigel's bank statements and medical records that could reveal the truth. The prosecution's barrister continues to spin tales while judges at Wood Green Crown Court refuse to grant bail under any conditions.

We bring you the suppressed testimony of Holly Bright, who has known Farah for 40 years. Her shocking statement details a disturbing pattern of abuse, manipulation, and control by Nigel Gould-Davies—evidence the court refuses to hear. She describes how Nigel isolated Farah from friends, monitored her communications and made cruel comments about her body during cancer treatment. Despite multiple witnesses ready to testify about these behaviours, their voices are being silenced.

This episode reveals how institutions meant to protect the vulnerable can instead become weapons against them. As Holly states in her testimony: "I believe Nigel Gould-Davies has been a perpetrator of violence against women for many years." Yet it's Farah who sits in a cell while her health deteriorates.
