But in a statement Photon Publishing downplayed the gravity of court proceedings, claiming they had been instigated upon the request of a third party over claims of an outstanding payment.

Photon Publishing said in a statement on Wednesday that it had “safely exited” insolvency proceedings, which have now been officially stopped.
