Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher, along with the Republic of Djibouti, has been ordered by a British high court judge to pay Abdourahman Boreh the equivalent of $1.3 million in fees after the firm’s Dubai partner Peter Gray was found to have knowingly provided false information regarding the Djibouti businessman’s alleged involvement in a 2009 grenade attack.
The fine follows a late March judgment from Justice Julian Flaux that lifted a 2013 order to freeze a reported $100 million in Boreh’s assets. Gray sought permission to appeal the judge’s finding that he misled the court, but in mid-April Flaux denied Gray’s request.
