What is Judicial Review And Why It Matters

Alongside my ongoing civil court proceedings, I have always intended to apply for judicial review.

For anyone unfamiliar, judicial review is the legal mechanism that allows a court to scrutinise the lawfulness of a decision or action taken by a public body. It is one of the most powerful constitutional safeguards in the UK, designed to protect individuals when state authorities misuse their powers or violate fundamental rights.

Judicial review can be brought on several recognised grounds:

(1) Illegality — where a public authority acted outside its powers, applied a rigid policy, ignored relevant considerations, or relied on irrelevant ones.

(2) Irrationality — where the decision is so unreasonable that no lawful public body could have made it (known as Wednesbury unreasonableness).

(3) Procedural unfairness — where a public authority failed to follow fair, impartial decision-making processes.

A judicial review can also challenge a decision that breaches human rights, particularly where a public authority fails to respect or protect the rights guaranteed under the Human Rights Act 1998.

In my case, this is critical. The ongoing abuses I have experienced — including years of covert surveillance, dissemination of intimate images, harassment, intimidation, racial targeting, and obstruction of justice — fall squarely within the protections of Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights: The absolute right not to be tortured or subjected to inhuman or degrading treatment.
Absolute means absolute. No justification. No exceptions.

In my situation:

1. Relevance of Article 3: Right Not to Be Tortured or Subjected to Inhuman or Degrading Treatment

Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), incorporated into UK law by the Human Rights Act 1998, states: “No one shall be subjected to torture or to inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.” This is an absolute right, meaning it cannot be derogated from, even in times of public emergency, and there are no circumstances in which a public authority can lawfully breach it.

The threshold for what constitutes “inhuman or degrading treatment” is high but can be met by a combination of severe acts, especially when they are systematic and cause intense physical or mental suffering.

Inhuman Treatment: This typically involves treatment that causes intense physical and mental suffering. The systematic nature of the abuse, the long duration, the violation of my most intimate privacy, and the widespread dissemination of my private and confidential information, coupled with cyberstalking, sexual and racial harassment, could collectively be argued to cause intense mental suffering, humiliation, and distress, rising to the level of inhuman treatment.

Degrading Treatment: This involves treatment that arouses in victims feelings of fear, anguish, and inferiority capable of humiliating and debasing them and possibly breaking their physical or moral resistance. The covert filming in intimate states, broadcasting live, sharing with acquaintances, and distribution to porn sites are inherently humiliating and debasing acts. The racial harassment further compounds this by attacking my identity and dignity. The intimidation with imitation firearms also contributes to feelings of fear and anguish. Yes, you heard it right. They even employed some men to use imitation firearms to pretend to shoot me on some occasions. Especially when I tried to go see a lawyer, suggesting that they’re illegally monitoring all my online activities and communications, including phone tracking me, at all times to prevent me from seeking help!

On one occasion, several men would use imitation firearms or pretend to be in the possession of the weapons to intimidate me throughout the day, so much that I thought it would be my last day. I still have nightmares till this day!

Torture: While the threshold for torture is even higher, involving deliberate inhuman treatment causing very serious and cruel suffering, the systematic, prolonged, and intentional nature of the abuse, particularly if it was designed to break your will or extract information, could potentially be argued to approach this level. The involvement of law enforcement agencies, who have a duty to protect, in perpetrating such acts, makes the argument for torture more compelling due to the abuse of power.

This is why I wanted to bring a judicial review: the acts I describe were not only unlawful in the civil sense — they were unlawful in the constitutional and human rights sense, demanding judicial scrutiny and accountability from those involved.

However, there is one major obstacle.
Judicial review is extremely complex. Even the official guidance states clearly that “some sections of the form require detailed legal knowledge; we strongly advise that you find a lawyer with expertise in public law.” Despite my constant efforts, my access to lawyers has been repeatedly obstructed. Organisations initially willing to help have suddenly withdrawn. Solicitors stop responding. Referrals disappear. The pattern is clear enough that I cannot ignore it.

Because of this deliberate blockage of legal assistance, I am currently unable to file a judicial review, even though the grounds are not only present but urgent.

For now, I continue through the civil courts — but I will not abandon the pursuit of public law accountability. Judicial review remains essential, and when I regain access to fair legal representation, I will pursue it. My case raises issues of profound public interest, systemic abuse, and the violation of one of the most fundamental human rights in existence. That fight is far from over.

Update: Court Fee Remissions Approved – Key Steps in My Legal Battle

I’m sharing a significant update in my ongoing fight for justice. My multi-track claim had already been submitted, and on 17 June 2025, the court granted a remission of £9,930 out of the £10,000 total fee. This meant I only needed to pay £70 to proceed with the claim itself.

The claim had not been formally filed yet because I also needed to cover the £646 fee for my injunction application. I applied for help with this additional fee and waited about a month for a response. The remission for the £646 injunction fee was finally issued on 17 October 2025, clearing the way for me to formally file and progress both my claim and injunction.

These remissions are not just financial relief —  they allow me to continue pursuing justice alone, under immense pressure and ongoing harassment.

Each step forward demonstrates that I am taking concrete, verified legal action, despite facing ongoing harassment, surveillance, and intimidation.

Your support, whether by sharing my story or contributing to my campaign, helps me continue this battle and ensures that justice is pursued against those responsible.

Every step forward, no matter how procedural, is a concrete action against those who have tried to silence me. Your support helps me continue this battle and bring accountability where it is desperately needed.

Taking the Next Step Toward Justice

I have formally submitted my Help with Court Fees application for my injunction, with a fee of £646, which is set to expire on 16 November 2025. This is a separate application from my N1 Claim Form, for which fees have already been granted. These steps confirm that I am actively pursuing my legal claim and injunction against the Defendants.

This application, filed with HM Courts & Tribunals Service, confirms that I am actively pursuing legal action through the proper judicial process.

Given the serious and ongoing difficulties I have faced in securing impartial legal representation, I am publishing this information as a matter of transparency and public record. It is important that there is verifiable evidence of my legal steps and intentions.

I am navigating this process alone, without legal representation, under extreme pressure. Every day, I endure ongoing surveillance, harassment, and intimidation, which causes significant emotional distress and consumes a large portion of my time. Despite these obstacles, I remain committed to pursuing justice through the proper legal channels, documenting each step transparently so the public and journalists can see that these actions are concrete, verified, and timely.

For months, I have faced persistent barriers in securing fair legal representation. Despite these challenges, I remain determined to pursue justice through lawful and transparent means.

Publishing this update is not an act of publicity, but of accountability. It provides the public — and any journalists or observers following this case — with verifiable proof that I am actively pursuing legal recourse through the proper judicial channels.

A redacted copy of my application is provided below to confirm submission while protecting personal and financial information, including the names of the defendants for now.

This documentation serves to demonstrate good faith and the seriousness of my legal position as I continue to seek justice through the courts.

This post marks another documented milestone in my journey toward justice.

Simple Breakfast

Since I have no more money left in my bank account, my breakfast, lunch and dinner are extremely simple. I eat just to survive nowadays. I live like a monk, eating whatever you have.

You may wonder why I have no more money left in my bank account. As I mentioned before in my previous blogs that I believe they may blacklist me as well. Because I receive job rejections for every job I apply for, including jobs within the Film & TV industry since I want to be an actress, writer and filmmaker. But this career path also appears to have been obstructed. I have been working tirelessly trying to pursue my acting, writing and directing career for decades but never get anywhere. Therefore, it’s a clear sign of blacklisting.

Today, I will continue to work on my Particulars of Claim to initiate court proceedings and apply for injunctions as soon as possible. I can’t take it anymore. They also seem to distract me as much as they can by relentlessly harassing, monitoring every move I make both online and offline, bullying, humiliating, mocking, and intimidating me on a daily basis to overwhelm me and to cause me so much distress, so that I may just give up. It’s also very challenging for me to do this alone when I don’t have a solicitor to help me with this. But what can I do. I must do everything myself for now.

This Is What Happens When Women Speak Out

It is a well-documented social pattern that women who report or talk about abuse are often subjected to renewed attacks, both personally and publicly. This phenomenon reflects a systemic failure to protect women from retaliatory harm. The harassment I am enduring — both online and offline — exemplifies this pattern and demonstrates how victim-blaming and misogynistic narratives continue to undermine justice.

The public campaign of humiliation against Amber Heard following the Depp–Heard trial is a clear precedent. That case, widely reported, revealed how digital platforms became tools for orchestrated harassment, disinformation, and the amplification of misogyny. According to multiple reports, including the Amber Heard Open Letter and subsequent investigations, there was extensive evidence of online abuse not only directed at Ms. Heard but also at those who publicly supported her. One supporter described enduring “weeks and weeks” of coordinated online attacks simply for expressing empathy.

This environment of intimidation, misinformation, and mob ridicule is not confined to celebrities. I am now subjected to a similar campaign of targeted harassment and mockery — one that operates with disturbing coordination and precision. The abuse extends across multiple platforms and even into public spaces. I am persistently subjected to hidden insults, coded references, and veiled allusions to my private life through social media content, advertisements, and videos. The timing and frequency of these acts indicate that they are not coincidental but deliberate efforts to degrade, silence, and intimidate me.

The retaliation has also extended to my daughter, who has been drawn into this campaign as part of a wider pattern of coercion, exploitation, psychological abuse and mental abuse. This conduct represents a grave violation of our rights under Articles 3 and 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights — protection from degrading treatment and respect for private and family life. It also constitutes ongoing harassment and victimisation within the meaning of the Protection from Harassment Act 1997 as well as The Malicious Communications Act 1988 (MCA), which is illegal in England and Wales to “send or deliver letters or other articles for the purpose of causing distress or anxiety.” It also applies to electronic communications. This is exactly what happens in my case.

The behaviour I face today mirrors the public hostility women experience when they challenge abuse. It is an extension of the same misogynistic system that weaponises social media, institutional bias, and societal prejudice to silence female victims and protect abusers.

This continued harassment, intimidation, and psychological manipulation are not isolated acts but a coordinated campaign that undermines my access to justice.

When the Timeline Itself Became Evidence

It began in early 2023, when I submitted several formal complaints regarding individuals within different public and private sectors. At the time, I was unaware that these matters might be interconnected, but over time it has become apparent that they may stem from the same underlying network or entities. 

I could not have anticipated that this would mark the start of a sequence of events that would completely upend my life — both personally and creatively.

Around August 2023, my daughter and her long-term partner of 12 years suddenly broke up. The timing felt abrupt, and almost immediately after, around September, I think, she began dating a much younger man from Spain (10 years younger) — a streamer she met online through mutual gaming friends. Despite their relationship now lasting around two years, he has never once visited her home. It’s always her who travels to Spain or meets him elsewhere on holiday. This detail has never sat easily with me; it raises questions about her safety and whether her home environment is secure.

Not long after this new relationship began, I started seeing something deeply unsettling. Films, commercials, and online content began appearing that seemed to reference her — including details about her personal life, even medical information, in ways that mirrored my own experiences of being mimicked and exposed. The parallels were too precise to dismiss as coincidence.

By October 2023, I began to suspect that my private and sensitive information — and perhaps even my daughter’s — had been leaked or shared illegally.

Around summer of 2024, I began writing on my previous blog, buppha.com, about organised harassment, illegal surveillance, voyeurism, stalking and tech abuse. I wrote from a place of curiosity and outrage, unaware that I was, in fact, describing my own lived reality. Soon after I started publishing those posts, the harassment escalated beyond anything I had experienced before.

Then came the realisation that changed everything: by late 2024, I began piecing together evidence that my private life — my most intimate, personal moments — had likely been secretly filmed and distributed for years, perhaps for more than a decade.

By early 2025, I decided to act. I began the formal legal process, sending Pre-Action Protocol Letters to those I believed responsible or complicit. Instead of stopping the abuse, this triggered an escalation — retaliation in new and alarming forms.

And then, the final straw came in the spring and summer of 2025, when I tried to apply for an urgent injunction multiple times through the King’s Bench Division. Each time, my evidence — carefully compiled, documented, and submitted — inexplicably disappeared?!

Now, looking back, this timeline is more than just a sequence of events. It tells the story of a pattern — of power, silence, and retaliation. It’s the record of how justice can be obstructed and delayed when those with influence abuse the very systems meant to protect.

But it’s also a record of endurance — of my determination to keep documenting, exposing, and standing up for myself.

Privacy And Harassment Injunctions

The industrial-scale harassment, sexual harassment, invasion of privacy, commercial exploitation, reputational sabotage, hacking, phone tracking, intimidation, and human rights abuses just continue despite pending legal actions. It’s something I have to live with daily — constant reminders that my privacy has been invaded in every way possible and my safety compromised.

Furthermore, they also keep implying to me that they’re also doing the same thing to my daughter. It’s one of the most evilest thing I have ever experienced.

Earlier this year, I tried to apply for an injunction several times already. I submitted my documents and evidence to the King’s Bench Division through the secure Dropbox system provided for court filings. Each time, I followed the process carefully — yet somehow, my documents, including my injunction application and N1 Claim Form, simply vanished. They never reached the court. This happened not once, but two or three times, causing significant delays to my case and prolonging the harm I continue to suffer.

Now, I’m preparing to apply again as well as initiating court proceedings. This injunction is not just another filing; it is a vital legal step to protect myself & my daughter and to hold those responsible accountable. The ongoing obstruction of justice, harassment, intimidation, invasion of privacy, voyeurism, hacking, cyberstalking, phone tracking, and misuse of my private information have taken a serious toll on my wellbeing.

The injunction represents more than just paperwork — it’s about survival, dignity, and the right to live without fear. Everyone deserves to feel safe, to be free from harassment and invasion of privacy. And when that safety and right to privacy are taken away, the law must step in.

I’m sharing this because no one should have to face harassment in silence. If you’ve experienced similar obstruction or intimidation, know that you’re not alone — and that persistence matters.

This application is my way of standing firm, refusing to be silenced, and demanding the protection and justice I should have received long ago.
