<p>LAM Trade Finance Group II applied for the injunction against Radiant World and founder Pinkesh Nahar. Singapore’s High Court will hear the application on September 9, according to the judiciary’s hearing list. The filing follows a worldwide freezing order secured from a United Kingdom court.</p>
<p>The Singapore case names Radiant World’s Hong Kong parent and main Singapore operating entity. It also names Sapphire Minmetals Corporation and chairman Rakesh Sethi as defendants. <a href="https://blockonomi.com/jefferies-highlights-three-leading-nuclear-energy-stocks-for-september-2026/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Jefferies</a> holds a minority interest in the fund, while Point Bonita manages it within the bank’s asset management business.</p>
<p>Bloomberg reported that Point Bonita financed invoices linked to Radiant World and Sapphire Minmetals. Trading counterparties later questioned some supporting documents, according to the report. The dispute has since widened into legal action across several jurisdictions.</p>

<p>Radiant World now faces several legal and financial challenges in Singapore and elsewhere. Some banks have frozen accounts, while trading firms have cut ties with the iron ore trader. Concerns focus on whether invoices used in trade-finance deals were valid and properly supported.</p>
<p>Radiant World has denied wrongdoing and says its operations meet commercial and legal standards. Sethi has rejected claims linking Sapphire Minmetals and Radiant World as one corporate group. Glencore chief executive Gary Nagle previously said the company viewed both traders as part of the same group.</p>
<p>Other lenders have also taken legal action tied to Radiant World’s Singapore business. Incomlend has sued Radiant World and Nahar in <a href="https://blockonomi.com/visa-v-stock-payment-giant-partners-with-nium-for-singapores-stablecoin-settlement-test/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Singapore</a> over separate claims. Mizuho Bank has pursued measures involving management of Radiant World’s Singapore unit.</p>
<h2 id="jefferies-fund-expands-cross-border-enforcement">Jefferies Fund Expands Cross-Border Enforcement</h2>
<p>The Singapore application follows the fund’s earlier <a href="https://blockonomi.com/uber-uber-stock-gains-as-autonomous-taxis-hit-london-streets-with-wayve-partnership/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">London</a> claims against the same five parties. A United Kingdom court then granted a worldwide freezing order covering assets linked to those defendants. The order strengthened the fund’s position while it pursued recovery tied to disputed financing.</p>
<p>Singapore police also began reviewing Radiant World after receiving reports about the company last month. Authorities disclosed the investigation but did not provide detailed allegations or findings. The review adds scrutiny alongside civil claims and banking restrictions.</p>
<p>A separate Singapore lawsuit accused Radiant World of using previously paid Glencore invoices to secure new financing. The lender also alleged that fake contracts supported a $31.7 million funding request. Radiant World denied wrongdoing as the latest Jefferies-linked case moved through Singapore’s High Court.</p>
