Credit Suisse Ignored Murders while Laundering Cocaine Cash – Banker Testifies
Credit Suisse reportedly knew of murders and cocaine smuggling allegedly connected to a Bulgarian gang but continued to manage cash that is now the focus of a criminal trial – a former female banker, accused of laundering more than a 146mn Swiss francs, told a court this week.
The indictment centres on relationships that Credit Suisse and its ex-employee had with former Bulgarian wrestler Evelin Banev and multiple associates, two of whom are also charged in the case.
Credit Suisse has denied any wrongdoing and stood by its former bankers accused. The trial began last week and is scheduled to end in early March.
