SFO big-ticket prosecutions

At the end 2019, the SFO  announced charges against two former Serco executives for fraud and false accounting months after reaching a deal not to prosecute the security outsourcing giant over its prison tagging contract with the UK’s Ministry of Justice.

“We shall see if this investigation has any teeth to secure a conviction,” says Bambos Tsiattalou, founding partner at specialist fraud and white collar crime firm Stokoe Partnership Solicitors (www.stokoepartnership.com).

“The SFO has already spent a number of years investigating Serco and the individuals have cooperated throughout.”
