SFO to prosecute its own employee

FMI ran another Bribery Act corporate hospitality seminar at the IET, Savoy Place recently. The big news is that the first ‘intention to prosecute’ has just been approved and of all people it appears to be an employee of the Ministry of Justice based at Reading Crown Court. You couldn’t make it up, could you? Having trailered the intention by the Serious Fraud Office to make an example of a particular industry with a high profile case, prosecuting one of their own employees is hardly the best way to make the point that they mean business. But legal insiders tell us that there is a much bigger, more meaningful prosecution in the pipeline before Christmas…so watch out  all those who sell The Big Issue on street corners, your days are numbered.
