Tory donor's cash links to properties in High Court money laundering probe

Javad Marandi, who also owns the Emilia Wickstead fashion brand and has a stake in the Anya Hindmarch handbag retailer, is shown in charts submitted to the High Court as making payments to the Azeri businessman and MP Javanshir Feyziyev that were used in the buying of 13 homes in London.

The properties — in Colindale — are among 22 homes in a £50 million London property empire built by Mr Feyziyev and his wife Parvana, now under a High Court freezing order. It is alleged that the properties were bought using funds moved into Britain via a money laundering operation.

But when I think of Samyukta Nair, sometimes I hear Jack Nicholson's mutterings in The Departed, Martin Scorsese's Boston gangster flick. \"I don't want to be a product of my environment,\" Nichol- son says. \"I want my environment to be a product of me.\"
