Police say £1.9M was recovered in a fraud case.

As one of the victims — that’s not the full story.

Over $3M was lost, only a portion recovered, and victims remain significantly out of pocket — including legal costs.

The court also found false representations and misappropriation of funds.

No criminal prosecution outcome at this stage.

We’ve now published the full court judgment from our £1.9m case.
It highlights fraud findings, partial recovery, and the challenges victims face recovering funds under the current system.

@LeedsNews3 Not the full story

@DanNeidle @UKGTE In our case they were caught red handed, assets removed via POCA but no conviction so they continue

[Jennifer Baker @bJennab]

@thetimes Similar case to ours though there has been no ban so far and individuals seem to be allowed to continue

[Jennifer Baker @bJennab]

@BBCScotlandNews Cases like this raise an important question — why do some fraud cases lead to clear consequences, while others with confirmed court findings do not?

In a recent UK case I was involved in, victims remain out of pocket despite findings of false representations and misuse of funds.

[Jennifer Baker @bJennab]

Cases like this highlight how outcomes can differ.
I’ve recently been involved in a West Yorkshire case where a court confirmed findings of false representations and misappropriation of funds affecting a group of investors.
Losses exceeded 3M, only partial recovery achieved, and victims remain out of pocket — with no criminal prosecution outcome at this stage.

It raises important questions about consistency in how these cases are handled.

[Jennifer Baker @bJennab]

@BBCNewsNI @BBCSpotlightNI This really resonates.

I’ve been involved in a UK case where a court confirmed findings of false representations and misappropriation of funds, yet victims are still out of pocket and no criminal prosecution has followed.

It raises important questions.

@BBCMorningLive I’ve been involved in a UK case where a court confirmed findings of false representations and misappropriation of funds.

Over $3M lost, partial recovery only, and victims still out of pocket — with no criminal prosecution outcome.

Happy to share more.

[Jennifer Baker @bJennab]

This is exactly the issue.
In a recent UK case I was involved in, the court confirmed findings of false representations and misappropriation of funds — yet victims are still out of pocket and no criminal prosecution has followed.
There seems to be a real gap between findings and accountability

[Jennifer Baker @bJennab]

@LeedsNews3 The judgment references individuals including Sohail Hashmi and Brett Bennett.

Happy to share the court judgment if helpful.

[Jennifer Baker @bJennab]

If a court finds false representations and misappropriation of funds…

but there’s no criminal prosecution and victims are still out of pocket —

what does justice actually look like?

@LeedsNews3 As one of the victims this is only part of the story.
$3M lost, partial recovery, victims still out of pocket.
The court found false representations & misappropriation of funds. There has been no criminal prosecution, and ongoing concerns about whether similar could continue.

[Jennifer Baker @bJennab]

As one of the victims in this case, I can confirm this isn’t the full picture.

Over $3M was lost, only part recovered, and victims remain out of pocket — including legal costs.

The court also made findings of false representations and misappropriation of funds.
