The CBI, which is probing receipt of alleged kickbacks in the Rs. 3,600
crore VVIP AgustaWestland deal, is likely to send Letters Rogatory (LR)
to authorities in Singapore and Seychelles to seek details regarding
certain monetary transactions under its scanner. The Seychelles and
Singapore connections have emerged in the probe for the first time.
“The probe has taken under its scanner certain transactions from
an accused Tunisian firm to an intermediary firm in Mauritius, which in
turn, routed the funds to a few other firms based in the same country as
well as in Singapore and Seychelles,” said a CBI source. The alleged
transactions were done through banks located in Port Louis in Mauritius,
Victoria in Seychelles and in Singapore, said the source.
The details, once procured, would help in determining the nature of the transactions, said the source. The CBI has already requested, via LRs, authorities in United Kingdom, Italy, Tunisia and Mauritius details on the money-trail but is yet to get a response.
An Italian court recently handed out a two-year jail term to former Finmeccanica CEO Giuseppe Orsi and its UK-based subsidiary AgustaWestland’s former boss Bruno Spagnolini for falsifying invoices, but cleared them of the more serious corruption charges in the deal.

ReplyDeleteWhile l all countries concern are investigating the case, Pl/FUI is failing to even comment and to open a priminary investigation in this casethough all ividence so far shows that money was transferred in banks in Seychelles?Pl and Fui might tell us that they have not received any demand from Indain Governement yet ,so there is no need for investigation,But since ,it seems there are Banks operating on our soil allegedly invovled.should it be a normal process for FUI and the justice department look into whether these banks allegded in this case are really involved regardless if the government has been asked by Indian/Italian courts or not,especially after Seychelles has been on several occasions been blamed Internationally a Haven for International financial crimes etc...?Or is it that Pl government is directly involved that it is afraid that by coorpating too many high pl official would be unmasked ,name and shame?WHy is Pl/FUI silent on the issue,Tell us Partilpep?
Jeanne D'Arc
No probes by Pl or FUI in regardless to these banks involved?
ReplyDeleteSeychelles is supposed to have anti-corruption body Pl.So far we have seen desktop calendar of the ETHICS cOMMISISIOON WITH LOTS OF SLOGANS BUT NO ACTIONS.We seen slogans such as NO TO CORRUPTION,äätheslogan must have been conceived to fool public and at the same time disguise the government lack of actions in regards to corruption.The Ethics Commission must not printed nice looking posters with nice slogans or desktop calendar ,but it needs of amending laws to give the Commsion reeal teeth.
ReplyDeleteItalian court has presented a hand written list that explains how bribe money was to be divived up byMr Hashke.The alter is coorporating with presecutors as part of a plea deal reached with the court.In a secretly recorded conversation by Itlaian Intelligent service,mr Hashke was heard telling a Business partner that TYAGIS were not a risk of being caught because they were paid in Cash and there was no money trail,accroding to a transcript contained in the arrest warrant.He goes on to say that "they will be able to say that they paid a lot for engineering"Saif Hashke.
ReplyDeleteIf Pl,FUi does not act on themselves to save their already tarnished image,then the Indain Court when time comes will enveil the fact and name Pl collaborators.If I would be Pl ,I would have long taken the iniative and start investigating now.
When it comes to pressuring Pl government in this case,i think the Indian government would avoid that.Instead it would use the situation to pressure Pl differently,e.g ensuring that deals with China are blocked /stop and other geopolitics issues.For the Indain government the case has provided India with a pressuring tool to control Pl foreign polcies towards China etc....
ReplyDeleteThere is simply more long-term benefit for India than forcing Pl to explain itself in the extual money launderying scandal.That getting Seychelles distancing itself from China favore Indian interests.
Has Seychelles become an ISLAMIC State or it is still christain?So what is FAURE doing in an ISlaimc Economic forum for Islamic nations?Who sent him Seychellois Or Atheist Michel who thinks Seychelles should be aprt of the Islaimc world.a dream of Khalifa.
ReplyDeleteHee! Hee! Did you see the black guy called Faure and the small white one called Morgan in our sand city Saeed? Well Sahib is supreme and Allah is great! All Sisels ministers have to attend indoctrination meetings in Dubai from now on. And Sisels Airlines will make stop over in Dubai or no license will be approved.

ReplyDeleteWhat a rip-off! another increase for electricity, water and sewage has just been announced by that sucker at PUC when the world price of oil is at its lowest in 4 years! The public has to pay for the government wastage, overseas travel and pension for useless politicians! And the Seychellois is still dancing, drinking and making festivals whilst the country is going bankrupt one more time!
ReplyDeleteHistory told us that the Emperor played the violin whilst Rome was burning, are we repeating history?
Today, Protesters angry at plans to allow Burkina Faso's President Blaise Compaore to extend his 27-year-rule set fire to parliament in the capital. Another page of history for Seychelles?

ReplyDeleteiT WAS LONG EXPECTED. there is more to come hike of taxes,healthcare would have to be paid by citizen for partilepep has empetied our coffer,parents might be asked to pay for education fo their kids ,hfor housing paid by tax payers money paretilepep is now asking Seychellois tax payers to pay more for their houses though their tax money is used to built public houses.but what partilepep failed to d is reduce or cancel their illegal self-given pension for life which is unconstitutional and criminal.Michel and his ministers continue to travel first calss around the world to conferences they have nothing to do in it like FAure atrtending Islamic Economic forum,or Michel travel to UN,Foreign Ambassadors continue to illegal control our Ambassies and being paid high salary in dollars ,ministers continue to drive big car which fuel and cost are paid by tax payers money when they could use Public transports,bicycle,or simply walk.Foreigners continue to bank all their revenues aborad,thousdans fo Expats continue to send their money aborad without paying tax,being given free public houses,eecltrcitiy fre healthcare paid by seychellois tax money.Partilepe continue to open Ambassy in many countires which have no connection with Seychellois people ,Sepec money still unaccountable for ,just as money generated for foreign fishing vessels are undeclared,.Partilepep must go or die in 2016.they have the choice.
FAure is a donkey,morgan the monkey.Two incompetwent thieves enjoying themselves with stolen tax payers money.We awaiting for Dr FAURE to tell us what his qualification.We know we study in a Tobacco plantation in Cuba but he has failed todate to tell us what he achieved as qualification------Hole digger,Chief cigar roller,we donot know to date and strangely this tobobcco plantation worker wants to be president by appointment.Morgan has to answer Seychellois on these illegal deals he unilaterally made with Khalfia regarding Airseychelles, the $4,5 millions he stolen in a fake contract deal,the death of the Muaritius prominent hotel expert butchered at Port Claud,Michel illegal OFFSHORE company,RENE mango plantation in Australia,etc..etc..etc..
ReplyDeleteWe awaiting for those NGOS like LUGO which has just changed name to hide itself to act).Speak out ,name and shame the rogue paritlepep system and criminals ,and organized protests when necessary like NGOS should and must do.Sitting with Michel like Pierre at State house to drinking tea and eat cakes is not the role of NGOS.We need pro-active and effective NGOS that acts.
ReplyDeletePartilepep is destroying Seychelles on all front--our history by destroaing archival documents,selling out our patrimony,illegally allowing Indain to march in Hindu religious procession of our Christian streets,building illegal hindu temple on our Christian soil,allowing Khalfia to paln and deice how Seychelles should look,etc,,etc,,etf,,
there is one solution to stop partilepep criminals -execution.
Th diea of displaying Sechelles culture and tradition is an idea coming from SFp supporters and blogers not Partilepep who has always been trying and still trying (with illegal Hindus religious procession to destroy our history ,culture and traditions).
ReplyDeleteTraditional wedding,but also traditons customs as part of a creoel carnival could be developed .There arexstill amyn details missing in the tradtion wedding ---that coules are driven in Carte ,accompanied by traditional ROMANS song ,or CAMTOLE music(no triangle but guitar,violine,tamborring)that followers of the serenade are also dressed in traditional wedding customs,etc..etc..etc..

I donot want Seychellois to set fire in buildings paid with their money but rather execute these donkeys to the likes of Morgan,Govenden,Pierre,RAm,Pter Simon,Rene Michel,Gurkas,Scully,and all these criminals and foreing collaborators raping Seychellois people rights,dignity and freedom.
St Ange go to support Indain illegal religious procession of our streets as if Hinduism is part of Seychellois culture,tradtion and religion and Indains are Seychelleois.wHAT YOU DO9NG sT aNGE IS ILLEGAL,DISTURBING FOR iNDAIN ARE NOT Seychellois AND NO FOREING RELIGIOUS CEREMONY SHOULD BE TAKEN ON THE STREETS OF OUR SOVEREIGN LAND.
ReplyDeleteiNDAIN SHOULD CELLEBRATE THEIR RELIGIOUS CELREMONY IN India NOT IN SEYCHELLES.hAVE YOU EVER SEEN Seychellois CHRISTINA GOING ON iNDAIN STREETS TO CELEBRATE CHRSITAINITY,OR Pakistani ON iNDAIN STREETS TO CELEBRATE iSALAM RELIGIOUS CEREMONY,OR Tibetan GOING TO iNDAI TO CELETB^RATE buHDDISM DONKEY.
iNDAIN RELIGIOUS CEREMONY,PROCCESSION HAVE NOTHING TO DO IN OUR LAND AND ON OUR STREETS.iNDAI IS A SOVERIEGN COUNTRY AND ITS PEOPLE MUST CELEBRATE THEIR RELIGIOUS CEREMONY IN iNDAI ,NOT ON THE STRRETS OF ueA,usa,uk,paRIS,euROPE,rUSSIA,sOUTH America--BUT IN THEIR COUNTRY AND DITO TO iNDAIN WOREKRS IN Seychelles.
