The Financial Crime Unit has welcomed the conviction of a Manx advocate.

A jury found 30 year old Jenny Dee Holt guilty of money laundering and creating false records.

The charges were in relation to the theft of £400,000 by Trevor and Wendy Baines, who pleaded guilty at the start of the trial.

The FCU says the convictions send out a strong message to the international financial community.

All three will be sentenced next month
