ALLEGED BRIBERY
By Nicola Laver
Mishcon de Reya partner Mike Stubbs has been accused of relaying to police what amounted to a bribe as part of an investigation in 2013, according to The Guardian. Transcripts in which Stubbs mentions an SAS officer willing to pay a proportion of 'CIA funds' into a police pension fund, emerged in relation to the trial of French banker Othman Louanjli. No action was taken against Stubbs by the trial judge however he did describe the exchange as 'extraordinary' and 'harebrained'. 24 July 2020
