Statement re. Court of Session Decision of 9 September 2014
The Company confirms that the Court of Session in Edinburgh has granted the Company Leave to Appeal the Court's decision to grant an order allowing Mr Ahmad to arrest funds in Rangers bank account or the accounts of others who may be due to pay sums to Rangers. He sought this order in connection with a claim against the Rangers Football Club Limited for alleged unpaid bonuses in the amount of £500,000.
This is a procedural step in the appeal process and the court has not yet considered the merits of the appeal. If the appeal is successful, the Court's decision of 5 September 2014 will be overturned and the funds arrested will be released.
