Looks like Ron and Geoff King are in court tomorrow at Westminster magistrates, all of this is in the public domain in the court website. Looks like it’s something to do with financial or a tax issue given the info available. Hearing is tomorrow morning
 
No wonder he looks like a sack of **** tonight! You couldn't make it up with him.
 
The Specialist Fraud Division is a dedicated prosecuting team within the CPS which deals with the most serious, complex and difficult economic crime cases, including bribery and corruption.

Oof....
 
Specialist Fraud Division. ...? It just gets worse and worse......
From their website:


"The Specialist Fraud Division is a dedicated prosecuting team within the CPS which deals with the most serious, complex and difficult economic crime cases, including bribery and corruption. It has a national remit and the specialist expertise to prosecute cases investigated by police and a range of other investigative agencies throughout England and Wales.

The Division primarily takes economic crime from specialist units in the City of London Police and the Metropolitan Police Service, but has a number of cases investigated by other forces and has arrangements in place to work with the National Crime Agency (NCA) and regional police fraud units.

SFD also prosecutes serious and complex criminal tax, excise and strategic export cases, which are subject to criminal investigations by Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC), in England and Wales.

In addition, SFD prosecutes all criminal cases relating to NHS fraud investigated by NHS Protect and criminal matters investigated by the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA)."

They sound a bit scary.
 
Could be tax related:

Our work with HM Revenue & Customs​

HMRC has responsibility for investigating all fiscal crimes, which involve activities such as direct and indirect tax evasion
 
A Magistrates Court will only deal with lesser offences OR prelimary hearings of more serious ones.
Given there are other matters listed in the same court room tomorrow and it is ‘specialist fraud division’ involved I presume this will be a prelim hearing to decide if there is a case to answer (eg to be heard later in the crown court).

This is almost word for word what I was about to type.
 
Are we totally sure it is our Ron Martin and not someone else with the same name?
