The first is an application by the Bank for the appointment of a receiver over Mr. Ablyazov’s assets in support of the Freezing Order (‘the receivership application’). The second is an application by Mr. Ablyazov for clarification as to the ambit of the Angel Bell liberty to deal with assets in the ordinary course of business (‘the clarification application’). The third is an application by Mr. Ablyazov for the return of his passport (‘the passport application’).’
