No, I'll save that for breaking the story about the politician & the sheep ( the sheep denies everything and is claiming defamation) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furry Mongoose Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Haha! Makes you wonder how some people think they'll get away with it! I just don't see the point - I mean even 5 million of his own funds would have kept him in champagne for the rest of his life surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gladys Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Trevor Baines, who'd have thought it, one time member of the Sangster set. According to MR, his passport has been taken, Africa House is now security for his bail and he must report to police HQ every day. Heavy shit, but innocent until proven guilty and all that.

Whimsy Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 I doubt if the Phantom FlanFlinger is guilty of anything. See him walk free, to Pie again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebees Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Hmmm people generally do not have stupid amounts of money by living within the law - there are many who will never get caught and those that do can afford the legal circus. I heard once that they made all their money selling bikes to the Africans (hence the name of the house) who cares? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeky boy Posted December 4, 2007 Author Share Posted December 4, 2007 Aren't we shortly due a visit by the IMF or OECD or some similar financial regulatory body ? Then there was a seminar on money laundering today in Douglas Trevs gets nicked for handling money which had originally been invested in a yank dotcom company All at the same time..... Burning martyrs anyone ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gladys Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Okay, get your point, but the usual concern is becoming an unwitting accomplice to money laundering, hence the AML talk (which is to consider the new AML regs). Interesting if the source is the dot.com boom (very quickly followed by the dot.com collapse). Also interesting if the currency is USD as word has it that the US will pursue anyone money laundering in USD, no matter where the actual offence took place as all USD has to pass through US banks and so the offence can be deemed to have occured in the US. Not arguing for or against, just very interested in this one from a number of perspectives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
