SHOCKING: #MissionariesOfCharity funded through a Panama based firm named in Pandora Papers leaks! Who is the actual donor?
MoC's gigantic foreign funding:
250+ bank a/c
₹1099Cr in 15yrs,
₹426Cr in 5yrs
₹75Cr this FY, from 347 individual & 59 inst donors. #TheHawkEyeThread 1/
While analyzing this freaking 76pg high-magnitude FCRA report, I found something catchy. Out of 75Cr (FY20-21), MoC, India has received 44Cr from MoC, USA. Usually, u may see names of other NGO/corporate as donors. However, 2nd highest donor (13.5Cr) here is Kriti Finance SA, 2/
which is a Panama-based asset mgmt firm. In the last 4yrs , either this firm (Kriti Fin) or something named 'Simi Foundation' (having same c/o address) has routed 32Cr to MoC. By all means, this is very unusual to receive funds directly from a Tax heaven country's finance firm 3/
Now interestingly Kriti Finance SA's president & director Edgardo E. Diaz is incidentally holding a similar position in many such cos including one Furwood Investment whose other two directors are Martinez & Gil. This is the same firm named in the recently released tax evasion 4/
& money laundering report Pandora Papers in context of Wockhardt's tax evasions case. Another catch is both these Panama firms are managed by the same law firm (Alemen, Cordero, Galindo & Lee).
The question is
- How come NO media, including Indian Express which was part of
5/
Pandora Papers have not highlighted this peculiar 18% donation of the total in FY20-21?
- Who is the actual donor?
- Is it a case of money laundering (black>>white)?
- Why such Tax heaven country finance firm would donate to a Christian missionary org in India?
6/
- Why a lobby defending MoC which is already facing conversion FIR in Guj & trafficking case in Ranchi?
- Can a Nobel laurel name grant you immunity from laws?

GOTCHA! MoC has accepted 26.5Cr in the last 5yrs from “Hinustan UNILIVER Ltd” having same address as the famous “Hinustan UNILEVER Ltd.” Typo mistake every year or a trick to launder money in the name of big corporate? @HUL_News@Unilever Check this & come clean. @dir_ed 8/
Just like most of didn't notice the spelling of Hindustan* at both place, that's how typo works 😄
The spelling of UNILIVER and UNILEVER is the catch anyway. 9/

FACT CHECK:
@IndianExpress published an article citing a 'fact check' for the fact which was never said!
Entire left cabal jumped on the news, in a very coordinated manner, misleading everyone.
Let's check it one by one.
1/
To start with, it was clear to everyone that said $21mn funds for India were CANCELLED by DOGE. i.e. it was funnelled but halted before it could released or received by anyone.
So, the headline "did not go to" itself is blatantly wrong by all means.
2/
This one line doesn't stop here but carries a hidden agenda and fake narrative crafting that "it was a big misunderstanding that USAID funds India to influence elections". Vicious!
3/
It looks like there is a big tussle going on between Fantasy Gaming and Opinion Trading (OT). There are links to the involvement of USAID, Ford Foundation etc in influencing policy makers against the OT.
Unmissable Thread🧵

This is a relatively new subject at large so understand the basics first.
Fantasy Gaming 🏏 : apps like Dream11, My11Circle etc. which let users create virtual teams (like IPL). If chosen players do well, you win real money!
2/
Opinion Trading 📊: This is something new & rising platform like Probo. Here, users predict outcomes of real-world events like elections, matches, stock etc. Right prediction = earn money. Its like a stock market for opinions.

The newly formed @DOGE cancelled $21M funding for NGO CEPPS for a program 'voter turnout in India'.
CEPPS website is defunct now.
Was it the first attempt at electoral interference in India by USAID? The answer is - NO.
IMPORTANT THREAD🧵

USAID program "Elections and Political Processes", to "Promote legitimate contestation for ideas and political power through democratic political processes that reflect the will of the people".
Gimmicks! The real agenda is influencing the elections.

In 2013, USAID pledged half a million dollars for India under the same category.
Funding Agency - Deptt of State
Managing agency - USAID
Implementing Parter - Consortium for Elections and Political Process Strengthening (CEPPS).
In May'24 US State Deptt hosted an event bringing 22 young rappers, singers, DJs etc across the world, including India, aiming to promote "art as activism" in their home countries.
Do you know who was invited from India and Why?

. @MikeBenzCyber , who is on a spree of exposing USAID and State Deptt for their funding flood to establish 'assets', just posted about a program organised by US State Deptt where they invited young artists for a two weeks workshop in May'24.

Deepa Unnikrishnan (Dee MC) was invited from India. The rapper then had a moderate 96K followers on Insta, 66K subs on YT.
I wondered then what made her profile so special to be invited by US St Deptt?
I went through her public profiles and it seems I've an answer.
Its been one year of pran-pratishtha of Ram Mandir and what has been achieved after spending a whopping Rs 1800 crores on a temple instead of 15 hospitals of 200 beds capacity?🤷♂️
Let's take a deep dive.
