Alkan, 40, is currently part-way through a prison sentence of 4 years and 3 months that was imposed after a joint investigation by Enfield Trading Standards Team and the Insolvency Service into his company Kiki Builders Ltd which was also know as Kiki Construction Ltd.
The teams established that he had operated as a rogue builder who took on contracts for extensions and loft conversions he did not complete and pressured victims into handing over large sums of money in advance of commencing any work.
He was originally convicted at Wood Green Crown Court on 14 counts in February 2019.
Following his conviction, the last order was issued following an investigation, the investigation was complicated by the fact that Alkan was declared bankrupt in 2017, prior to which he had transferred property out of his own name.
The Court heard that the sum of £68,090 represents the total sum of Alkan’s remaining financial assets.
