Notes

  1. Raymondip Bedi’s date of birth is 09 October 1989.
  2. Patrick Mavanga’s date of birth is 24 November 1984.
  3. The FCA has attempted to contact investors who lost out. Anyone who was scammed by Bedi and Mavanga and has not heard from the FCA should call 0800 111 6768 or email [email protected]. They operated companies including CCX Capital and Astaria Group LLP.
  4. The FCA’s ScamSmart campaign provides advice on how to spot and avoid investment scams.
  5. The successful prosecution of Bedi and Mavanga follows several other positive results for the FCA in court. In June, it secured convictions against Redinel Korfuzi and Oerta Korfuzi. The Upper Tribunal upheld three FCA decisions against Jes Staley, Craig Donaldson and David Arden, and Diego Urra, Jorge Lopez Gonzalez and Poojan Sheth. It also follows recent successful criminal prosecutions for insider dealing against Matthew and Nikolas West, and a guilty plea from John Burford for a £1m investor fraud scheme.
  6. Mr Bedi had previously pleaded guilty to 4 charges on 2 May 2023. He pleaded guilty to conspiracy to defraud, conspiracy to breach the general prohibition under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 and money laundering offences at an earlier hearing.
  7. Mr Mavanga pleaded guilty to 3 charges on 9 June 2023. He pleaded guilty to conspiracy to defraud, conspiracy to breach the general prohibition under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 and possession of false identification documents with an improper intention at an earlier hearing. Mr Mavanga was also convicted of perverting the course of justice on 7 November 2024 for the deletion of phone call recordings following the arrest of Raymondip Bedi in March 2019.
  8. The sentencing was made up as follows:
    – Bedi was sentenced to 5 years for conspiracy to commit fraud, 4 months for conspiracy to breach the general prohibition, to run consecutive to the 5 years, and 2 years for each of possession of criminal property and conversion of criminal property – both to run at the same time as the 5 years and 4 months.
    – Mavanga was sentenced to 5 years and 8 months for conspiracy to commit fraud and then 6 months of a previous suspended sentence was activated to run consecutive to that, 4 months for conspiracy to breach the general prohibition, to run consecutive to the 6 years 2 months, and 12 months for possession of false identification documents with an improper intent and 9 months for perverting the course of justice – both to run at the same time as the 6 years and 6 months.
