Superdry

James Holder, co-founder of Superdry, was sentenced to eight years in prison after a jury found him guilty of raping a woman at her Cheltenham flat following a night out in May 2022. The court heard the victim was intoxicated and repeatedly asked Holder to stop; Holder accepted sexual activity occurred but denied assault, claiming consent. His application for bail was dismissed due to being considered a flight risk with significant resources. Superdry said Holder had no role at the company at the time of the offence. » Plus sur theguardian.com

Grant Phillips was jailed for 26 months after admitting fraudulent trading for taking £30,000 from 12 customers between April 2021 and October 2023, leaving victims more than £22,000 out of pocket and causing unsafe, unfinished work. He operated under the trading names Superdry Plumbing & Drainage, Rhino Plumb and Plumb Fix, and was caught after complaints to Citizens Advice and Action Fraud led to an investigation by Suffolk Trading Standards. Judge Nicola Fitches condemned his dishonest conduct and the harm caused to vulnerable customers, some of whom required costly remedial work. » Plus sur yahoo.com
