Re: Lawyers
Here is the first thing that came to mind (story about three bankers handed over when the treaty first came into force):
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/5174902.stm
However, although the alleged perpetrators and victims are based in the UK, the Crown Prosecution Service has not brought any charges against the three.We have requested British authorities to bring a case against us if there is one to answer.
The men have called on the UK's Financial Services Authority (FSA) to bring charges against them, but say the FSA has not done so.
They have also written to NatWest asking them to bring civil proceedings against them "if you consider we have committed an offence", but say there has been no action and the bank is still providing financial services to them.
Instead, the US Department of Justice has brought seven indictments of "wire fraud" relating to the deal, covering emails and faxes sent between Houston, London and the Cayman Islands four years ago.
