Rocco Galati: The Canadian Press

Federal Court Dept: TORONTO - A lawyer who represented two men branded as threats to national security said Wednesday he was stunned to discover confirmation of his long-held suspicions that government agents had listened in on his phone calls with his clients, according to Winnipeg Free Press. "I couldn't believe the degree to which the judicial process had been corrupted," Galati told The Canadian Press outside Federal Court and lawyer Rocco Galati is seen outside Federal Court in Toronto on Wednesday, Aug. 8, 2012, after testifying in the national-security case of Mohamed Mahjoub. Galati was stunned to get confirmation of his long-held suspicions that Canada's spy agency had been listening in on his calls with his clients. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Colin Perkel Federal lawyers had heaped scorn on him when he first raised the issue a decade ago, Rocco Galati said, and it was only recently he learned he'd been right all along.
