Lanarkshire

The court heard Sahroudi, 41, and Brown, 48, did "acquire, use and possess" a total of £5,719,244 of "criminal property" paid by NHS Lothian, NHS Grampian, NHS Lanarkshire, NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde as well as NHS Ayrshire and Arran.

Sharoudi, of Motherwell, Lanarkshire, told his KC Brian McConnachie that Hush repaid for anything Oricom had purchased for him.

Cox, of Cathcart, Glasgow was head of IT and infrastructure at NHS Lanarkshire.

He denied being "bribed" by Oricom and that any contract with NHS Lanarkshire was won "fair and square".

Brown also knew another NHS Lanarkshire telecoms official who has since died.
