Lady judge is guest speaker at Dundee University

Judge Anuja Dhir QC is one of UK’s leading legal experts and will be guest speaker at Dundee University, on 14th April, for the Saturday Series of the university.

Judge Anuja was appointed the first non-white judge to join the Old Bailey. She will talk about the challenges she faced to get there, having been told once while at school to consider a hair-dressing career. She will talk about her career, having tried cases involving murder and terrorism.

The judge said she wanted to give an insight into her work ad also about her own life, from the time she was a pupil at Harris Academy, to becoming a judge at the Old Bailey. She remarked that since she attended school, there has been tremendous progress in society and wanted to encourage the coming generation to fulfil their potential.

The guest lecture will be held at the university, from 6pm to 7pm, on Saturday, followed by a drinks reception. Free tickets are available to be booked online at the university website – dundee.ac.uk/saturdayseries.
