Mr. Abbas recalled joining Instagram in 2012 to share his style online, and he described the growth of his business into "luxury fashion, real estate, automobile sales, and entertainment deals."

"Your honour, I totally recognise the seriousness of my offence, and no amount of sorry can write my wrong in the hearts of the victims, and this is why have decided to use my personal money to offset all of the entire $1,700,000 restitution even though only benefited a fraction of $300,000," Mr Abbas penned.
