A contestant from The Apprentice ripped off a government Covid support scheme to the tune of £50,000.
The Bounce Back loan scheme was meant to help businesses struggling through lockdown by allowing them to claim a single loan of up to 25% of turnover.
Riyonn Farsad’s cookery company Middle Eastern Kitchen applied for and received a £25,000 loan in July 2020 and two months later got a second one for the same amount.
