Following a hearing before His Honour Judge Tomlinson in Southwark Crown Court, the FCA has secured a confiscation order, under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002, against Ian James Hudson who had been convicted of criminal charges in relation to fraudulent trading and carrying on regulated activities without authorisation.
Ian Hudson was convicted and sentenced to a term of imprisonment totalling 4 years following the FCA’s prosecution.
The court made a confiscation order against Ian Hudson in the sum of £220,710.14. The court also ordered this amount be paid as compensation to the victims of Ian Hudson’s illegal activities.
The FCA has carried out extensive inquiries to identify all victims who are eligible for compensation. The FCA is now making a final call for any remaining victims to come forward.
