Sardar Rassa was given a six-month suspended prison sentence after Islington Council identified serious safety issues with his imported e-scooters and bikes. After initial tests in November 2021, it was evident that a significant quantity of the 600 children's scooters, adult scooters, e-scooters, and e-bikes did not meet safety standards, leading to their seizure. The council criticized Rassa for not conducting required safety tests, leading to findings of improper labeling and critical component failures. The council’s actions reflect the growing concern over fire risks linked to poorly designed lithium battery-powered vehicles in London.
The shipment of e-scooters and bikes, flagged non-compliant, led to Sardar Rassa facing legal action due to serious safety risks associated with their lithium batteries.
Islington Council's investigation found that Mr Rassa failed to conduct necessary safety tests, resulting in a six-month suspended prison sentence for product safety offences.
