here is an excerpt of an email from Detective Sergeant Peter Stewart

"This e-mail has been marked OFFICIAL [PUBLIC];

XXX,


Thank you.

 

If I get as many people on board as I can, we have a strong case.

 

In simple terms, I believe that Yaqub told lies to get money and then did whatever he wanted with it. These were funds invested in his company to develop DeOS; not to spend as if it was his own money.

 

Yaqub is still living in Northern Ireland and we have £935,000 restrained (effectively frozen) that he has not got access to.

 

If we get him convicted, his victims will be compensated.

 

Kind regards

 

Pete"
