Mehmet was a manager of Globalactive Technologies L.T.D, which returned products bought from EU Union states. The products were acquired by false firms and then returned. Globalactive then submitted VAT returns to HM Cash and Customs reclaiming the tax, which had not been paid.
The investigation - codenamed Operation Devout -ran for five years and was one of the most complex investigations headed by customs investigators, who had to unravel a web of fraud and forgery.
