Oliver Kirk was instructed by Richard Graham of Graham and Co to represent a Polish national charged in connection with an alleged £2 million money-laundering operation involving the alleged use of a network of Bitcoin ATMs by criminals to launder the proceeds of their crimes.
The cash deposited into the machines was subsequently deposited into the bank accounts of others before being transferred abroad in an effort to avoid detection by the authorities.
After a trial at the Canterbury Crown Court lasting over 3 weeks, Oliver's client was acquitted of the charge.
Oliver is an experienced criminal advocate. He represents clients in the most serious and complex criminal cases. Prior to being called to the Bar, Oliver was a solicitor for 22 years and a Higher Courts Advocate for the last 10. As a result, Oliver has gained a wealth of experience that means he is ideally placed to advise solicitors on case preparation in order to achieve the best possible outcomes for his clients.
