Car wash at Oxford football ground employed illegal workers

JJ’s Car Wash, based at Oxford United‘s Kassam Stadium in Grenoble Road, was caught with illegal immigrants working at its site.

According to date from Immigration Enforcement, which published details on the car wash, said JJ’s had been fined £90,000 for who it employed.

Elegent Car Wash Ltd is now liable to pay for the fine, but there is an active proposal to strike off the company on Companies House.

No details about how many illegal workers were employed there, the circumstances or where they are from have been revealed by Immigration Enforcement.

Three men resigned as directors between July and October last year, including Rebaz Kaisar Saied, Noah Kailo and Alan Ali.

JJ’s Car Wash was approached for a comment, but it declined. Oxford United has been approached for a comment.

JJ’s Car Wash, which is still listed on Google as open, boasts about washing high-end and expensive luxury cars, including once a £200k Mercedes G63 AMG, a £190k Aston Martin DB12 and a £90k BMW M4 coupe on its social media.

UK employers face severe penalties for employing individuals without the legal right to work, with civil fines increasing to up to £45,000 per illegal worker for a first breach and up to £60,000 for repeat offences as of February 2024.

Companies may also face public naming, license revocation and criminal prosecution, including custodial sentences.

Although JJ’s Car Wash is based at the Kassam Stadium, there is no suggestion that Oxford United had anything to do with the car wash’s illegal practices.
