I think a similar situation you can look into is the sanctions on Carrie Lam. While they are sanctions instead of a lawsuit, they did result in her losing access to all banking facilities in HK and China regardless of the fact they probably didn't think she didn't anything wrong. I think for most countries, keeping their banks working trumps almost all other considerations.
