Hill Street Police Raid


When Skies Are Grey

Recommended Posts

Ffs do you really believe that a request for assistance was made and the assister did not know about it? Do you not think this has been fully planned and co-ordinated well in advance?

 

1) correct 2) yes well co-ordinated, and for reasons cited above .. et al..

Laundering is the process of disguising the proceeds of crime as something legitimate

That part of your post is correct at least.
Im really curious now as to what your definition is of VAT fraud. Enlighten us.
I think he may be insinuating that perhaps VAT fraud is not the original crime here.
His wording is "Its not a tax avoidance/evasion issue" indicating that whatever is being laundered is not the result of the VAT investigation mentioned and thus has come from a different criminal source, either within the entity or from outside.

What are you suggesting? As a hypothesis that doesn't really work. In reality you would have to be a particularly stupid person to launder money from bottom line illegal activities through an abusive VAT and tax planning business that generates even more money, becomes very high profile as a tax dodge in its own right, and which subsequently attracts too much attention from HMRC for its activities. Conventional money laundering is designed to de-risk your exposure to claims of illegal activity and legitimise your cash - not ramp it up to the max and get more attention from the tax man and law enforcement agencies for the end business than the source activity you wished to conceal.

So the clues on here to date.

 

I've seen mention of property, eggs, bones and laundry.

 

Is there a Chinese butcher who owns his own house in Hill Street?

 

Ta Dah

 

How did you get Chinese from that?

Quite.

 

And they may have needed a Work Permit to execute the warrant if our boys weren't 'in the know'.

 

TBT.

Any information on this seems to be restricted to the tax dodging establishment.

You mean FSC license holders and others who have seen the list which stipulates that they cannot release any information to the public by the Police? Everything will be out soon enough and the reasons for the care being demonstrated on here will be very clear to all.
