On 2 December 2021 a district judge at Westminster Magistrates’ Court discharged George’s client and refused the extradition request from the Kingdom of Thailand.

This was the culmination of months of work and an extradition hearing lasting 5 days earlier in the year. George and his team had gathered and refined 1,000’s of pages of evidence to challenge the Thai extradition request.

The client, a British citizen, had been accused of providing financial advice without a licence over a period of several years.

The Thai Government later confirmed that it was not appealing the judgment.
