Two Dubai Courts instruments issued 24 October 2024, thirty-three minutes apart.
The 14:08 paper, SN2024/0000439284, names Farideh Kavesh as principal and Hooman Ali as attorney. The printed powers are inquiry: ask the Central Bank and UAE banks about her accounts, loans, murabaha, facilities, deposits; obtain statements and discharge certificates; sign what is needed to inspect. The printed powers are not withdrawal and not a redirect.
The 14:40 paper, SN2024/0000438514, names Marwan Mohamed Ahmed Noor Al-Mazmi and Ammar Ali Ahmed Ali Al-Mulla. That grant is general in lawsuits, settlement, and estate banking.
Public listings print Marwan Mohamed Al Maazmi as head of litigation at Fotis International Law Firm. They do not print him as CEO. AMCO Law Firm’s public page styles itself Ammar Almulla Advocates and Legal Consultants and still describes Fotis International. A directory still for Ammar Almulla Advocates uses the Business Bay tower and office number also printed for Fotis. Those are directory faces. They are not a finding that either advocate was her retained counsel, or that she chose the 14:40 grant.
Dubai Islamic Bank’s legal department wrote on 6 January 2025 that a 9 December 2024 notice did not match its records. A 17 December 2024 recovery contract names him as agent. A 12 December draft invoice is addressed to her. The originals, the DIB letter, the invoice, and the wire are on the 2024 Dubai power of attorney.
On 18 February 2026 Kavan Bakhda of Mishcon de Reya wrote that he and Chris had spoken that morning with Mr Drahmoune of Fotis Law. Mishcon’s stated reading on that call was that the power of attorney is investigative. Bakhda recorded Drahmoune as saying the Fotis instrument gave Hooman access and full authority to operate the accounts, and that Drahmoune would send that paper and mark the clause. Bakhda also wrote that Drahmoune said Fotis contacted DIB, FAB and ADIB and only DIB replied. The copy Drahmoune said he would send is not in this file. No later writing from Fotis Law or from Drahmoune is in this file. The 14:08 Courts paper still prints inquiry.
A 10 February 2025 Horizons & Co invoice billed to her prints the matter as POA revocation. It does not name the 14:08 paper or the 14:40 paper.
