Papakonstantinou’s cousins prosecuted for «money laundering by profession»

Yorgos Papakonstantinou’s relatives, whose names were deleted from the original Lagarde list, were eventually summoned by the economic prosecutors investigating the case on suspicion of four felonies, including black money laundering, and one misdemeanor, even though all three are beneficiaries of a bank account in HSBC Switzerland at the amount of 1.222 million dollars. Through their lawyers, all three requested and received a deadline for next week by public prosecutors Grigoris Peponis and Spyros Mouzakitis, to be informed about the case file and prepare their pleas accordingly.

In particular, Papakonstantinou’s cousin Heleni Papakonstantinou, Simeon Sikiaridis and Andreas Rossonis are summoned to testify on: Incitement to distort a public document based on the law on embezzlers of the State, incitement to embezzle a public document and tax fraud over 150,000 euros consisting of violations of income tax provisions.
