The anti-corruption NGO Transparency International announced Tuesday that it filed a complaint in Paris for “money laundering” against “businessmen and senior officials close to Vladimir Putin.”
The non-governmental organization filed a complaint against unspecified persons for money laundering, non-justification of resources, concealment and complicity, it detailed in a statement.
The objective is “to denounce the system of capture of the Russian state and national wealth by businessmen and high-ranking officials close to Vladimir Putin,” he added in the note.
This system has “ramifications even in France, especially in the real estate sector,” he said.
The complaint was filed on Thursday with the National Financial Prosecutor’s Office.
The NGO did not give the names of the people involved to “avoid retaliation.”
