A UWO can be secured by several bodies, such as the NCA or Serious Fraud Office, and compels an individual to reveal the source of their unexplained wealth. They are designed to tackle economic crime like money laundering, cybercrime and fraud. The agency alleged that Hussain, reported to have no criminal convictions, "has links to a murderer jailed for 26 years, an armed robber and a convicted fraudster who acted as his accountant," and used threats of violence and blackmail to buy his properties.
Various U.K. media report that Hussain's social media accounts showed him "living a luxury lifestyle, with high-performance cars, executive jets, super-yachts and appearances at VIP events attended by celebrities," although there is no suggestion that any of celebrities he posed with knew who he was."This case is a milestone, demonstrating the power of Unexplained Wealth Orders, with significant implications for how we pursue illicit finance in the U.K.
