Mr Khalil Mr Khalil was Peter Barlow ' s solicitor when he was formally charged and tried for the murder of Tina McIntyre in 2014 . In August of that year , Ken Barlow returned from a year away in Canada and heard for the first time about Peter ' s predicament . He visited his son in Highfield Prison where he saw that he had given up hope of anyone believing in his innocence and had sacked his duty solicitor . Ken met Mr Khalil at Nick ' s Bistro and asked him to take up his son ' s case . He said that he was only happy to do so if Peter instructed him himself but otherwise he was unable to do so . Ken pleaded with him but to no avail as it would be breaking the rules . Peter told Ken he was intending to plead guilty in the hope of a reduced sentence but unexpectedly it was Jim McDonald who persuaded him not to for Simon Barlow ’ s sake . The case went to trial in October with Mr Khalil duly appointed and instructing the defence barrister Miss Jones . Whilst waiting for proceedings to begin the second day , he told Peter to try and look relaxed so that the jury didn ’ t interpret his nervous state as being guilty , though Miss Jones countered that he shouldn ' t look " too " relaxed as it looked like a sign of arrogance . While waiting for the verdict on the fourth day , he told a desperately nervous Peter to try and stay positive . When they were advised that the jury had reached their decision , he told Peter that there were no hard and fast rules on a case like this as regards what the verdict might be as they made their way to the courtroom . Peter was found guilty and sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum of fifteen years but just a few weeks later Rob Donovan was unmasked as the real murderer and Peter was released .
