Danish woman remanded for 21 days over laundering of $4.5b through Danske Bank's Estonian Branch.
She had been extradited to Denmark from England where she was held in custody & has ties to Russia, prosecution said. reuters.com/article/denmar…
Police went to her house in England July 2020, confiscating computers, phones & apparently she was 'shocked' they were there!!
“I was in shock, because I know with 100%, 200% (certainty) that I have done nothing wrong”
3 people have now been charged into Danske's $230b laundromat
It was Howard Wilkinson who blew the whistle on Danske's Estonian branch laundromat, after looking at a UK LLP Lantana Trade, a 'dormant' company depositing £Millions a day, connected to Putin's cousin, Igor.
Last year, @EvaJung_ from Berlingske Newspaper revealed the 3 people being investigated over ML through LPs at Danske's Estonian branch as Camilla Christiansen, Arunas Masenas & lastly Irene Ellert, named as the person extradited from England Dec 21 berlingske.dk/virksomheder/p…
Camilla Christiansen has already been sent to prison for nearly 4 years for another money laundering case & according to berlingske.dk/virksomheder/p… she could face jail for a total of 9 years if found guilty for her part in this.
Some of the focus on the charges to all 3 involve a company called CPH Consulting. Irene Ellert, who claims with "200% (certainty) that I have done nothing wrong" was a partner of CPH selling 'tax solutions' to wealthy Russians

Graham Bonham-Carter arrested today for conspiracy to violate U.S. sanctions imposed on Oleg Deripaska & wire fraud in connection to funding of Deripaska's properties in the U.S. justice.gov/opa/pr/uk-busi…
Bonham-Carter had 5 bank accounts frozen for 6Mth containing £110k at the end of March 22 under suspicion of money laundering & helping Deripaska evade U.S. sanctions.
A further £797k has flown though the accounts btw Nov-Jan22.
New. Graham Bonham-Carter's UK company GBCM Ltd enters into voluntary liquidation owing creditors £112k
Bonham-Carter, is also accused of money laundering on behalf of & helping Oleg Deripaska evade US Sanctions. …te.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/114675…
Bonham-Carter has decided to use a C.V.L. - a Creditors Voluntary Liquidation rather than a Members Voluntary Liquidation. The CVL route appears to be the easiest, cheapest, most common way to shut down your business, keeping creditors at bay, as a liquidator controls the process
Here's something I don't understand.
GBCM Ltd's book value for assets subject to floating charge shows it had 'cash at bank' of £647k, yet will realise only £8k of all it's assets. Is it just too early to say yet? Who understands this? Creditors include HMRC for paye/vat/corp tax
Deripaska's 5 Belgrave Sq mansion occupied by squatters. Another of Deripaska's mansions handed over to his family/associates in order to avoid U.S. sanctions.
It is owned by B.V.I. entity Ravellot & Deripaska's 'property manager' Graham Bonham Carter is listed as its contact.
Deripaska's 'property manager' Graham Bonham Carter, had 5 bank accounts (£110k) frozen the other week suspected of being laundered on behalf of Deripaska. A further £800k has flowed through them since Nov 2020
Another house on Belgrave Mews together with 5 Belgrave Square are valued at £50M and both registered to Ravellot, the company registered in the B.V.I. that Bonham Carter is the contact for.
All countries are listed as attending including Britain, but Barker is listed as representing the Russian Federation (as then Exec Chair of EN+)
He appears to be the only Briton representing Russia. unfccc.int/sites/default/… (pdf)
I managed to catch a bit of Lord Barker at Cop26 talking about carbon pricing which you can see here. He admits that it can have unintended consequences like pushing up people's bills.

'Keith Schembri wanted Daphne dead' - 'Keith Schembri told me [Fenech] to find someone to kill Daphne'
Yorgen Fenech claimed Keith Schrembri was the mastermind behind Daphne's murder timesofmalta.com/articles/view/…
Fenech paid middleman Melvin Theuma €150k to give to Vince Muscat & brothers Alfred & George Degiorgio to murder Daphne
And this is how they did it. it's sickening. Vince Muscat claimed they originally planned to shoot Daphne though a window at her home. The 3 men settled on a different plan, buying a bomb instead from maltese gangsters, supplied by Italian mafia.
