Nick Beechey and Nasreen Shah, instructed by Sunil Lakhani of Dalton Holmes Gray solicitors, succeeded in a submission of no case to answer in relation to their lay client’s alleged involvement in a £40 million plus organised crime group money laundering scheme that was centred on the removal of suitcases of cash, the proceeds of crime, to Dubai.
Nick and Nasreen’s client was indicted along with fifteen other defendants, whose cases were split across two trials. The case involved in excess of 27,000 pages of evidence, CCTV footage, ANPR and cell site evidence, and a covert surveillance operation.
Nick and Nasreen’s client was one of only two to be acquitted of money laundering, and the only defendant whom the jury were directed by the judge to acquit.
