An estranged former business partner of the biotech chairman recently petitioned a Dutch court in a last-ditch attempt to ensnare the wealthy businessman in a criminal probe.

A Dutch Court of Appeal has rejected a request by a former business partner of Clinuvel Pharmaceutical chairman Willem Blijdorp to order the public prosecutors’ office to start a criminal investigation into Mr Blijdorp.

The media-shy Dutch businessman provided €75.35 million across 12 unsecured loans to Mr Mahyari, an Iranian-Dutch marble trader, to help facilitate the purchase of licences and other “business activities” of nine Iranian quarries in 2015 and 2016. The pair had plans to set up a joint venture but the relationship soured.

“It is very much unsure whether further research will still produce useful and reliable [supporting] evidence four years after the fact.”The court did order the Dutch public prosecution service to start a criminal case against another man, Emad Moursy. The court said Mr Moursy confessed to taking part in a smear campaign against Mr Mahyari, and Mr Moursy was the “driving force” of that campaign.Mr Mahyari had filed two so-called Article 12 proceedings against Mr Blijdorp and Mr Moursy.
