Formal referral connects UK and Antigua & Barbuda legal cases, alleging misconduct by lawyer
In a surprising turn of events, UK solicitor Rebecca Hume of Howard Kennedy LLP has found herself embroiled in a formal criminal referral due to numerous allegations, including assault, conspiracy, and harassment, as well as wrongful arrests. The referral was initiated by Alkiviades David, the defendant in the ongoing case Mahim Khan v. Alkiviades David (KB-2025-001991) and an Ambassador-at-Large for the Green Economy in Antigua & Barbuda.
The referral has been addressed to several key authorities including the Metropolitan Police Service, Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA), the Commissioner of the Antigua & Barbuda Police Force, and the Attorney General of Antigua & Barbuda. The allegations range from a physical assault that reportedly occurred inside the Royal Courts of Justice on July 25, 2025, to deliberate obstruction of evidence submissions, economic coercion, and wrongful arrests linked to an ongoing legal feud.
“This is not an isolated incident — it’s a coordinated pattern of abuse that undermines the rule of law in both the UK and Antigua & Barbuda,” asserted Alkiviades David, demanding an urgent investigation and accountability. Both the High Court case in the UK and the Supreme Court case in Antigua ultimately connect to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, highlighting a significant legal relationship across the two jurisdictions.
The referral not only calls for a prompt police investigation, capturing CCTV and security logs from relevant court venues, and securing witness statements, but also urges the SRA to take regulatory actions against Hume and her firm. Additionally, the Antigua & Barbuda Police have been requested to conduct a parallel inquiry in coordination with UK authorities.
The referral documents contain a comprehensive timeline of alleged misconduct occurring since the events of July 25 and provide an evidence schedule detailing court materials and witness testimonies relevant to the case.
