High Court rules trio can be quizzed about business affairs of failed language school
Summary
In a High Court ruling on 18 December 2015, the liquidator of the closed Dublin‑based Irish Business School (IBS) obtained orders to examine three men—Fakir Hossain, Golam Shohan, and Mehedi Hasan—about the school's affairs. The liquidator, Declan De Lacy, argued that the men were suspected of holding company records and that the school's books and bank statements were missing. Hossain, owner of Irish Education Business and Research Ltd, denied any management role; Shohan, a part‑time bookkeeper, and Hasan, a marketing manager, also denied involvement. The court found the orders necessary for the winding‑up, noting that the men could provide information on the trade, dealings and affairs of IBS. The judge scheduled a further hearing for January to allow both sides to consider the judgment. The decision was made by Mr Justice David Keane.
