A car mechanic with a grocery off-licence business run by his wife, had amassed nearly £250,000 held in bank/building society. Unfortunately, he could not prove the source of the majority of this. The allegation was that he had been moonlighting or not declaring the full extent of the business takings. Our client’s contention was that the bulk of the money had come from his family in India, particularly his father’s Estate, but these funds had not come through official channels Link put forward a convincing case on his behalf and reached a very acceptable overall settlement with the Inland Revenue. The inquiry covered 8 years and very complex personal circumstances.
