前英国工党议员沙希德·马利克因其在RT诊断公司中的角色被宣判无罪1。该公司在2021年3月英国第三次全国封锁结束时成立，在随后的三周内获得667万英镑收入1。法院查明该公司在哈利法克斯的运营设施条件恶劣，员工培训不足，且未提供个人防护装备1。
同案被告菲萨尔·沙卡特被判三项罪名均成立1，而保罗·摩尔、琳恩·康内尔和亚历山大·扎尔内赫被判妨害公众安全罪和欺诈性贸易罪不成立1。审判于去年10月开始，因陪审团干扰指控，4月陪审团被撤销，由法官独自进行判决1。
现年58岁的马利克曾于2005年至2010年担任德伯郡议员，并在戈登·布朗政府中任职三个部门的部长1。他是英国首位英国出生的穆斯林议员和首位穆斯林内阁部长1。
Shahid Malik, a former Labour MP and former justice minister, has been cleared of charges related to his involvement with RT Diagnostics, a company that operated irregularly while handling Covid-19 testing contracts 1. The company generated £6.67 million in revenue over a three-week period in March 2021 when the UK government expanded its testing and tracing system following the end of the third national lockdown 1.
The case revealed serious operational failures at RT Diagnostics' Halifax facility, where staff received inadequate training and were not provided with personal protective equipment 1. Of the five defendants, Faisal Shakat was convicted on three counts, while Malik, Paul Moore, Lynn Cornell, and Alexander Zarneh were acquitted of charges including public nuisance and fraudulent trading 1. The trial began in October of the previous year but proceeded without a jury from April onwards after allegations of jury interference, with the judge delivering the verdict alone 1.
Malik, 58, represented Derbyshire as a Member of Parliament from 2005 to 2010 and served as a minister in three departments during Gordon Brown's government 1. He holds the distinction of being Britain's first British-born Muslim MP and the first Muslim cabinet minister 1.
