Hypothetically, if you were to leave the country (legally initially, but perhaps overstay a visa), to evade the criminal justice system on (fairly minor) charges unrelated to fraud or anything corporate or monetary, could the state freeze your business operations (LTD company/s) in the UK? E.g. seize/freeze assets, freeze bank accounts, that sort of thing? Taking into account that the hypothetical charges have nothing to do with that business, but that you are the sole director of the company/s.
