Ouajjou & anr (defendants/appellants) v Ahmad (claimant/respondent)

Wednesday 27 November 2024

These Appellants have both been committed to prison for contempt for a total of 9 months each.

Both Appellants admitted breaches of a worldwide freezing orders (“the WFO”) which were first made on an ex parte basis on 18 March 2022 and continued by consent by order of 30 March 2022. There were two WFOs, one against each defendant, in identical terms.

The defendants accept that as a result of the breaches, they are in contempt of court. The hearing on 25 April 2024 was therefore for the purposes of determining the sentence for the admitted contempt.
