Episode 160 hosts Jahan Kalantar from Sydney, Australia.

Originally qualifiying as a barrister,  Jahan is a Criminal Lawyer and the principal of 'Executive Legal', a law firm that specializes in criminal and medicolegal law. 

Jahan also has an incredibly popular Tik Tok account where he provides entertaining and concise explanations about legal concepts. 

Having discussed some of the legal principles that injectors need to be aware of in previous episodes (episodes 51, 66 & 114), we now explore things from a prosecuting solicitor's perspective.
