Insolvency Service prosecutes fireworks trader for fraud and insolvency offences

The Insolvency Service has successfully prosecuted the director of Ikandy Wholesale Ltd, Raashid Khan, resulting in a four-year prison sentence for fraud, forgery, and insolvency offences. Khan, a Birmingham fireworks trader, forged multiple documents to evade a £75,000 payment for fireworks and to circumvent bank account restrictions. He fraudulently obtained a £50,000 Covid Bounce Back Loan and withdrew £62,158 after his company entered liquidation. Khan has been disqualified as a company director for 12 years and was convicted of using a false instrument, fraud in anticipation of winding-up, and fraud by false representation. This case underscores the Insolvency Service's commitment to maintaining the integrity of the insolvency regime and protecting public.
