Warrant issued for arrest and imprisonment of high-flying businessman in Milton Keynes

Imraan Ladak is the former owner of Kettering Football Club and has been a director of several MK recruitment companies.

He was once named in the Sunday Times Young Rich List.

He was sentenced to prison for six months at the High Court last week after being found guilty of two counts of contempt of court.

Mr Ladak failed to surrender himself to the conditions imposed and a warrant for his immediate arrest and incarceration was issued.

It is understood police have been provided with photography, passport details and a warrant forbidding him from leaving the country. All airports, ports and the Eurotunnel have been alerted.

The High Court judgement was made by His Honour Judge Rajeev Shetty following the case of Pertemps

Medical Group (PMG) versus Imraan Ladak.

A hearing the previous month heard Ladak committed contempt of court by breaching an interim judgement granted on in July 2019, and a renewal of the same injunction on January 2020.

The interim injunction arose in an action by Pertemps Medical Group Limited in which it claims Ladak, its former Chief Executive Officer, had breached contract and pursued a campaign of harassment against the company and its senior directors.

In his judgement, Judge Shetty said: “For his contempt in respect of the First Contempt Application the Defendant stand committed to HM Prison Birmingham for a period of three months, and for his contempt in respect of the Second Contempt Application the Defendant stand committed to HM Prison Birmingham for a further period of three months.

"The said sentences are to be served consecutively from the date of the Defendant’s Surrender, or in

default of his Surrender, his apprehension.”

The judge also ordered Mr Ladak to pay £70,000 costs to Pertemps Medical Group.

The businessman, who has lived in Milton Keynes since 1984, is currently listed as a CEO of OOH Medical, which is based in MK.

He once owned a 33 per cent stake in Milton Keynes-based DRC Locums, and has worked in medical recruitment since 1998, including at director and CEO level for several agencies based in Milton Keynes.

If anybody sees Mr Ladak or has any information about his whereabouts, they should contact police on 101.
