A man by the name of Mr. Khan has found himself in quite the predicament. He has been accused of stealing a large sum of money, specifically more than £1 million. How did this come about? Well, it turns out that Mr. Khan was working as an accountant for a company called North of England Coachworks. However, things took a turn when his former bosses filed a lawsuit against him for fraud. They claimed that he had used tens of thousands of pounds of company money to pay for escorts.
It was revealed that Mr. Khan had been spending money on various escorts, including one named Gemma Massey, who was once known as Britain's highest paid porn star. The total amount spent on these escorts was estimated to be around £160,000. While Mr. Khan admitted to using company money for this purpose, he argued that his bosses were aware of how he was spending the money and had no issue with it. He believed that he had done nothing wrong, but he has now agreed to pay the company £500,000 as part of the civil court case.
During the trial, it was revealed that Mr. Khan had been working for North of England Coachworks as their accountant until 2019. However, his resignation came about when serious discrepancies were found in the company's finances. It was discovered that Mr. Khan had been using company cheques and transfers for his own personal use, resulting in a net loss of £1.1 million for the company. Out of this amount, around £160,000 was spent on the escorts, with a large portion going to Gemma Massey.
As the trial continued, it was brought to light that Gemma Massey was not only a former dental nurse and beautician, but also a high class escort. This information was revealed through a web page presented as evidence. Miss Massey, who was once in a relationship with TOWIE star Kirk Norcross, was also known as an Only Fans model and boasted of being the UK's highest paid porn queen on the BBC.
Mr. Khan, in his defense, stated that his employers were aware of his actions and had given him permission to spend money on escorts. He admitted to paying for their services, but argued that he was also repaying loans he had previously made to the company during financial hardships. However, the company's barrister, Sam Neaman, pointed out that even with the amount Mr. Khan had put into the company, there was still a loss of £1.1 million.
The judge questioned Mr. Khan, asking him why a company would allow such extravagant spending on escorts. Mr. Khan responded by stating that it was his money and the company didn't care how he spent it. He claimed that there was an agreement between him and his employers, allowing him to spend the money as he pleased. The company was aware of where the money was going, and they didn't have any objections.
This legal battle has been ongoing since 2019, with the trial finally beginning last month. However, before a ruling could be made, the two sides reached an agreement to end the case. Mr. Khan has agreed to pay the company £500,000 as part of the settlement, which he must do by August 6, 2024. He also agreed to cover the company's legal costs, which will be determined through assessment. Until the payment is made, a freezing order will remain on Mr. Khan's assets.
