Facts of the Case

Background

The applicants sought leave to execute a judgment ordering release of their seized trucks pending appeal. The trucks had been seized under a court order in August 2022 during criminal investigations for money laundering and fraud. After criminal charges were withdrawn in February 2023, the applicants successfully applied for release of the trucks in May 2024 (HH 165/24). Both respondents noted appeals to the Supreme Court against this release order.
