Former HSBC Bank employee Hervé Falciani gave a USB stick with eight names of alleged tax evaders to the four Greek prosecutors who took his testimony at the Greek Embassy in Paris.
According to information from an anonymous source at the Public Prosecutor’s office, the list of names includes two businessmen and one lawyer who are being investigated for forming a criminal organization and money laundering, along with five other names who are suspected as accomplices of the first three.
The USB stick contains money transfers of suspect accounts, links with other banks and links with names of account holders who are suspected of tax evasion and money laundering.
Falciani has more information on his hands and reportedly will give a new testimony to the prosecutors after the elections. Greek authorities will send requests for legal assistance to pertinent foreign authorities in order to cross-check the findings. They also sent requests to Switzerland and France for the opening of the accounts of the first three suspects on the list.
In 2008, Hervé Falciani stole data from around 130,000 bank customers in order to give them to another bank.
