Money laundering 2020 - Suspended Sentence Imposed
Mr Pretesh Chauhan represented SA who was charged with money laundering. SA was stopped by police in central London carrying £100,000 cash which was unaccounted for. After skilful negotiation and a favourable basis of plea being accepted by the prosecution, SA was sentenced to a suspended term of imprisonment by Harrow Crown Court. Almost completely unheard of when such a large quantity of unaccounted or ‘dirty’ cash is concerned. An exceptional outcome.
