A jury heard the plot was partly a result of a 'grudge' against two barristers.
A wealthy businessman who recruited a group of men to plant fake bombs in a London legal area over a "grudge" has been found guilty of various offences.
Prosecutor Catherine Farrelly told the jury it was "clear that Jonathan Nuttall perceived the NCA case as causing him and his family public embarrassment and ruining their reputation and he was not willing to accept that". Police later seized a laptop from Michael Broddle's home containing a surveillance report and three photographs of Mr Sutcliffe's home.
A receptionist in Gray's Inn also told the court how she saw a man dressed all in black with a face mask walk past and then heard the sound of a thump and smoke rising before the figure walked past her again."This was Michael Broddle depositing the other device," said the prosecutor Catherine Farrelly, telling the jury that the smoke grenade was let off to ensure the device did not go unnoticed and "maximum alarm" was caused.
