'People have been in touch and said we’d like to help you but we can’t', Adoboli told a court on his fourth day of testimony. 'Across the industry, there is no one who’s been willing to stand up to the machine'.
Bloomberg reports that Adoboli, 32, pointed to the area in the London courtroom next to prosecutors that has been reserved for UBS officials. Nine lawyers and two public relations officials were present Wedneday on behalf of the bank. Some have passed notes to the prosecutors during the trial, he said.
'You see the machine that is amassed against me', Adoboli said, pointing at them. 'All of these people, along with the police, along with the Crown Prosecution Service'.
