Crime investigators in Panama remove bags of shredded documents from Mossack Fonseca building

Organised-crime investigators in Panama yesterday removed as evidence bags full of shredded documents from a building in Panama City which they raided – not offices – used by the law firm Mossack Fonseca.

“We have secured a large amount of evidence found in the location,” one investigator told the press.

Mossack Fonseca later released a statement saying that it had digitised all its documents and that the shredded papers taken from its premises were bound for recycling.

And that is exactly what Nexia BT said when asked about the large number of bags full of shredded documents removed from its San Gwann premises and collected by a Kasco van.

Meanwhile, Malta’s Commissioner of Police, who was very quick to order a magisterial inquiry into the Opposition Leader’s fuel gauge when prompted to do so by the Speaker of the House, who is his former colleague in the police force, refuses to investigate the Prime Minister who appointed him.
