The south believe these kind of stuff i might down in his knowledge and full of chance that says the kings. During the uprising kievs musicians headed to Independence Square alongside thousands of protesters among them was all for trade tatianas a chip stuck to the foam on the phone book it was a pull out there in the feeling you. Get a lot of play out of the most show yet be it up there national for me from the case channel here kids at the National Mall my book. I. Think the president had refused to sign an agreement to bring ukraine closer to europe. The goal of revolution was not only striving towards the end it god was also to how the set play and the fair rules of the game and the evolution was against corruption. The three months kievs Independence Square became a battlefield over a hundred people lost their lives. I found then one february night ukraines president began to move house. I president Viktor Yushchenko vich fled his country with help from Russian Special forces he was flown by helicopter to moscow i i was overly complex in the wishful will behappen that a bad first death in the subash little for the watchful eye. For tatyana ukraines leaders like villains in a comic opera. Will cry in the risky pistols in the uk on. To fuck to show. The day should run away from the country anti ukrainian treasury and its accounts had a few thousand dollars so the point is that entire treasury was dropped. Thank you. Soon after the revolution ukraines people discovered how their president had been living. Of socialism isnt that iraq is not that we should look to me now to dover. The extent to sort of absurdity of descriptions amazing its a six story log cabin i think the biggest one coming in the world set in from the amazing est. If you can award it you know how to get around in a day. Last. Fall behind still. I have no question. In the. Only little bit of bush. Previously the palace was he didnt from view even on satellite maps. But now a nationalist group runs guy did tools of this monument to corruption. Mr booker a city of ninety one thats four dollars when these nollywood for a liver see you receive program this was sudden it was all the month of the month bush was up what they would. Probably kill the ninos to make new starts remember them botched this wattles keep those stalled the gears need to educate the ballot no this is just saw it seem so. Sternly. For draw. Said do we.

The power is still gods a secrecy them with the name of its real owner yeah so this is the buick you young of which are in a quote which did not keep money on his name even though shes main house where she spent the last years of shes life in ukraine it was registered on the charity fund not on the in goshen stuff behind the charity the dizzying web of Companies Based in tax havens around the world. Im will jordan come to kiev ukrainian capital. Aljazeera is Investigative Unit has obtained a drive filled with hundreds of documents about yana covert his network. Bank statements contracts and emails from twenty eleven through the revolution until twenty fifteen. They place Viktor Yushchenko vage the ultimate Eastern European all agog at the helm of a global corruption network. This investigation is about how that Network Still operates today and through one crooked contract we see how all the dogs do business often with the unwitting assistance of Western Banks weve called it the quick pace deal. Unbelievable. It sounds like an agreement between criminal busts it kind of side it was your blood. By most estimates yet a code which stole billions of ukrainian investigators traced and froze one point five billion a cyprus based Company Called quick pace limited holds one hundred sixty Million Dollars of that in cash and forms but prosecutors froze this money because its stolen it cant be legally bought nor sold them straight its just its the point of this is attached to a country that. As a lawyer i read this document or that or said that its not illegal i wouldnt expect any court to enforce chalk it. Just shows the. The way these guys do business i mean the genius of it really. The quick pace deal involves to all agog sigrid to buy the company and its one hundred sixty million in frozen assets from a mysterious. The contract is unsigned but our evidence indicates the deal went ahead they treat quick pace like buying a bankrupt company and agree a knock down price of just thirty Million Dollars. They throw in a private jets as part of the payment this is really interesting discovery this is distressed debt basically you get these companies in the city of london who if someone refused to pay their debt they buy it for you know twenty pay on the pound and then do their utmost to get it back and make a profit on it. The oligarchs would make a clean up one hundred thirty Million Dollars profit they believe they can unfreeze the assets or as they call it remove the arrest and pocket the money. They just need to persuade a judge to lift the freeze. And. If you have influence over the course which you do in a corrupt jurisdiction like ukraine you can then use that influence to try and release the assets and make your money out of it. As a majority of judges you claim they are themselves the corruption they asked those accord to get off each. Weve got that evidence that establishes which all of dogs are trying to make illicit profits from the quick pace deal. As weve shown this to investigators including john benton the former head of the International Corruption unit at Britains National crime agency these are really really complex investigations youve got to go through thousands and thousands and thousands. Doctors its following the money and working out essentially the route the money takes. It appears the quick pace limited was part of a massive embezzlement and Money Laundering network under the yana covert regime. Is it legal to be trading frozen assets its very planning for them moving its a criminal offense all ideas are frozen yes exist think its the proceeds of crime its like trading in stolen goods that have been taken by the place you know put in a cache in the getaway car yet. All documents revealed by one in the quick pace deal is alexandra on a shankar who operates behind offshore company fast a low Trading Limited fuel typical ukrainian oligarch. Oligarchy is a term that most people didnt know twenty years ago its kind of come out of the russian system that of the russian Privatization Program these are extremely rich people. Just with the old enough horses is a flamboyant oligarchy like spending money on expensive things like the old. He sponsored the miss ukraine contest and partied with the stars coming around us and paris hilton John Claude Van damme. A nation coach like a lot of ukrainians made money in the gas business. And. I started to produce. In ukraine actually at the. Biggest company that too was sold. Thirty years ago. On a shank or was seeking asylum in europe and agreed to be interviewed because he believed it would help clear his name but first we didnt say that we knew about the secret quick pace deal he was happy to talk about his famous friends. You know donald trump yeah shes doing of course competition in a niche also she was no longer of this compassed Miss Universe in the end was this and most mentioned there was a relationship was. All documented revealed by a two in the quick pace deal pavel folks his company which is to International Incorporated. Is a real estate tycoon whos featured in a russian business program. Team at pfizer for the combine you must see to see mean if shes not going to teach could get by she thinks in austin on the easy. Folks promotes a hard man image you know all the boom boom boom the food in the world over. Like by a one folks is friends with now u. S. President donald trump has negotiated with him several times since two thousand and four but never completed a deal to build a trump hotel in moscow. President putin has all meant folks for his contribution to the russian economy focus on several Prestigious Properties in the russian capital. He built this complex in partnership with the powerful son in law of former russian president boris yeltsin. Another parno was a cosmic businessman later sentenced to jail over a multibillion dollar fraud. Because. Hes a tough boss. Oh she knew that we were going to win this one she can go to them do it in one court a few of the one hundred you put in here that was a go to do good initial push on the good doc i never equated it with. The idea that you discuss. It but im going to spoil it wouldnt. Mr and mrs fox publish social media snaps with a high profile jeweler and his wife. Jacob arab it was jailed for two years in two thousand and eight in a us Money Laundering case. Folks socializes with influential politicians a russian m. P. From president putins posse now a senior banker the mayor of ukraines second city kharkiv left in a wheelchair after a mafia style assassination attempt. Was interesting about him is that the extent to which he shows that the separation between ukraine and russia can be a bit skindeep the elites of both ukraine and russia for that is basically the same country the money flows backwards and forwards the business deals going backwards and forwards. A recent leak of offshore Company Documents the Panama Papers establishes folks at the helm of a huge Global Business empire. It begins with his offshore company which is their International Incorporated registered incident kitts and nevis. It has holdings in companies all over the globe in directly in Golden Eagle Trust in new jersey. Owned by billionaire v. J. Maleo today facing extradition to india on fraud charges which he denies another link mining in tanzania and cameroon to palm Oil Billionaires in malaysia even state run pharmaceuticals in cuba where they will operate as a kind of. Transnational clan have the lawyers and scientists that have that money in up here its an International Structure which theyve created since the fall of the soviet union which is very very resilient and very hard to penetrate. Since the collapse of the soviet union a quarter century ago ukraines been caught between russia and the west. After the twenty fourteen revolution a pro western governments been in place. When you look at its launched a war on corruption fooled by a National Anti Corruption Bureau built on american and european money. But it may have folded up still with it up and yet. This indian also thought. That in the moment it got the volume or sounds like it was the bureaus well known for arresting low level judges and Civil Servants and counting out that cash on camera. But it hasnt gotten any high level convictions supposed to be able to. Put in the. Deed to the police it shows nothing was or wasnt his motion which was put to him in june wasnt going to go in doing which im a shame im supposed to. It appears that the revolution that toppled yana cove it did not remove the oligarchs who served him across the pond in modoc book both of shows of the process that would push and post. At the casket im going to do this this. But i had so clean the screen and i said that but it was not suppose shed look. At the flock. By a one in the quick pace deal alexander i want to show is on the run in western europe with his riches. The ukraine government says he swindled them out of a hundred Million Dollars on a gas deal on a shango says the president. Told him to bribe m. P. s and has now turned against him. More to do in a hurry and thats why. Now in europe. Actually does he case is political motivation case. When you say youre against corruption there but you pay bribes youve been corrupt or have been not corrupt i did just so actually what the president say and in the whole country. That is not the other way there is a lot of we. Want to go is the Anti Corruption bureaus most wanted fugitive. Theyre hunting him for the gas window. They raided his office in march twenty sixth dean even had his mother arrested in madrid during that raid we understand they picked up a copy of our document the quick pace deal. Despite this they seem to be doing little to bring the oligarchs involved to justice. Misters so this is can businessmen a foursome who could get it to some. Over all of the corners of the. Justice then you would do it. For you mrs and them do what it is to. Buy it to have all folks a man whose Business Empire spans the globe. We traced some of his property assets. This is folks is a social media stock regularly in london the photographer always takes pictures in the same place the market belgravia neighborhood near the spanish embassy. And at home sweet home. We located the building property records show it was purchased in twenty twelve for twenty five Million Pounds or around forty Million Dollars by another company by. Based in the British Virgin islands called Latina Associates ltd using a mortgage from barclays bank. The Panama Papers leak reveals that Latina Associates is owned by mrs folks and mr folks whose company to which is the international. London is a favorite destination for many oligarchs their money. On the International Front you said. We dont just turn. To professional services that can be hijacked and you used. We also have all the trimmings where you might want to spend money. In london you buy anything you buy yourself a mansion it comes into you buy yourself a lot of fun out of the base you buy yourself a yacht a lot but. This building in Central London houses a Company Called Chesterfield Group. Its whats called a Company Formation agent a crucial tool for any oligarchs such as pavel folks. For a small fee theyll set up a company for you and you can remain anonymous it can be off shore with an address thats not yours the names direct it wont be you the name secretary wont be you you simply control it in the background or you will know many cutouts protect your identity. If anyone ever comes to ask the question they just are throw their hands up in the air and say i dont know i was just nominee director and i was this just a field group. And i came to ask you some questions about how to folks as effectively you have these cut out characters then depersonalize and distance the money from any of the real perpetrators of the situation we mailed in cool to you but you didnt respond you can create a company in the next thirteen pounds and it takes you have done it in the in minutes alone. No one checks the information that you provide it. And there are three hundred fifty thousand companies created by Company Formation agents in the u. K. Actually here. This office and Chesterfield Group a closely linked to folks. Just a fields building is owned by a Company Based in the British Virgin islands gober a group bought in twenty fifteen for around five Million Dollars with a barclays mortgage. Gerbera group is owned by fox his company to just an International Just a field has branches in cyprus i love my island the bahamas and of course london in many cases Dorchester International is the names director. If you could a Company Formation agent register that Company Formation agent is fully companies see you there and. Us media really suspicious huge huge a lot about. Just the field appears to be a captive Company Formation agent in other words creating companies for its owner. Expects perfect sense i mean if i was not up to that i mean your own Company Fresh why dont sell them to your mates give them a. Christmas present and get his a London Company or the bank account. In part two we confront alexander on a shankar one of the buyers of quick pace. Theres like trend of business that you can buy cheaper in the car tool to fix the program to make the money. And we reveal the man believed to be the seller of the frozen assets. The is unbalanced and an inch is a vengeful person a principled and ruthless. China has a serious shortage of women and a lot of. One on one used meets those desperately seeking low anyway the care at this time on aljazeera. Began life this was our foundation. I tried to do Something Different when i met daisy it was the best day of my life. I wish that they could have gone on forever. But my past caught up with me. And made us all pay the price d. C. M. Back at this time on aljazeera. Oh im in london heres a quick look at your headlines on aljazeera germany france and britain a gene u. S. President donald trump to back the Iran Nuclear Deal a day before hes expected to decide on whether to reimpose sanctions the three european powers made the call after a meeting with irans foreign minister Mohammad Javad zarif and brussels iran has warned that it could return to producing enrich uranium if sanctions are reimposed the European Union has had and expressed a very clear position on the nuclear deal as it was stated. By the twenty eight European Union Member States ministers already told her that for the past year and repeated again today the deal is working it is the living on its main goal which remains keeping the Iranian Nuclear program in check when the last hour weve been hearing from the u. S. Treasury secretary Steve Minucci who indicated that more sanctions are on the way. I am expecting new sanctions on iran we continue to look at them weve rolled them out and i think. You can expect there will be more sanctions come and our other top stories the father of an eight year old pakistani girl who was raped and murdered last week has accused the police of not acting quickly enough when she went missing protests have been taking place in eastern Punjab Province was a knob and sari lived her body was found in a waste dump on tuesday the local police chief has been sacked of the negligence related to zainab scase. More than six hundred people have been arrested during five days of and hell stare at the protests in tunisia with the Army Deployed in several cities the demonstrators are angry about the governments proposed price and tax hikes which they want scrapped israel has approved more than eleven hundred new illegal settlement homes in the occupied west bank their approval could further strain relations between israel and palestine following the u. S. Decision to recognize jerusalem as israels capital. A mass burial has taken place in nigeria for seventy one People Killed in fighting between for lonny herdsmen and farmers the two communities have been locked in conflict for decades over the use of land to graze their cattle those are headlines do stay with us our special report on the shadowy world of Eastern European on the guard now continues after that for the news hour. Im. In part one now former ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych stole billions one point five billion dollars was frozen we have obtained documents that expose a plot in twenty fifteen to steal again one hundred sixty Million Dollars of that money is held in a Company Called quick pace limited. Is involved to all agog pavel folks and alexander on a shank are planning to buy quick pacers frozen assets at a knockdown price. And. It sounds like an agreement between a criminal boss is going to sign it with your blood. Now we reveal where the stolen money is destined and the identity of the reclusive third all agog believed to be selling the frozen assets. Is a vengeful person unprincipled and ruthless. The story about documents takes us back to the heyday of the corruption of ukraines former president yana code which. Deep into one network of his offshore companies. It traces the path of hundreds of millions of dollars out of ukraine from twenty eleven to his a scape in twenty forty. Three Foreign Bank Accounts and into the pockets of young and covert and his cronies. Since ukraine that came into town until ninety nine to one. It has been essentially looted by its elites again and again and again and didnt tactics they use are essentially always identical. Faceless lawyers accountants and bankers helped pass hundreds of millions of dollars around the network. Some as loans referenced redistribution of means some as payments for Building Materials oh mellotron ics some for cars motorbikes even pocky flooring. The philosophy of money launderers is to create a situation where the money has moved to so many Different Companies in so many Different Countries and in so many different accounts thereby effectively laundering it because nobody has the resources to figure it out. While he was still in power the young courage network used quick pace to launder money sometimes moving relatively small amounts fire complex with the help of Western Banks. One document showed a payment of four point four Million Dollars made by quick pace from its nominal home as a cyprus registered company. The money was held in a quick pace account in vienna with austria as mine all bank. It was wired to an account in frankfurt with commerce back. On to do each a bank in new york. It ended up at Bolton International bank in latvia the account of a Shell Company folks trying Networks Limited folks strong like quick pace is registered in cyprus. None of the banks appear to have raised a red flag whats called a suspicious activity report. Its very easy for a bank to throw out a suspicious activity as a to present but the trouble is whos digesting this this is sent to your courts and the answer is in many cases nobody. The documents linking quick pace to folks trying networks internal and quick pace to one of the worlds highest profile Money Laundering scandals it was discovered by russian accountants surrogate magnitsky he was working for an Investment Firm based in ma. And run by bill browder. Surrogate supposed to he was then arrested tortured and killed in prison. The russian government says magnitsky died of Natural Causes and accuses browder of the fraud browder claims russian officials stole two hundred thirty Million Dollars in state folks here which quarter billion dollar russian government embezzlement synonymous with justice and corruption in russia frightening reminder of how quickly money can disappear. Cubans reveal that folks draw networks have been wired money by quick pace in march twenty fourth. We then discovered that folks strong was owned by one of the companies at the heart of the magnitsky affair final limited. Final limited is one of the central. Parts of the apparatus like the. Spigot on the i. Final is effectively a Nominee Company that is the director for a number of very crucial. Points in this Money Laundering network. Both quick pace and the company it would money to folks trying networks are registered in cyprus. Which ukrainians funnel their money offshore to cyprus and then on boards beyond and then bring it back again so it looks like Foreign Investments you cant really tell it lends it. In the quick pace deal another side First Company prone to Service Limited is named as the seller of the one hundred sixty Million Dollars in frozen assets. But prone to Services Just to cut out a nominee shareholder it owns the assets on paper but the real owner is hiding behind it. Christina cyrus is the name secretary of prone to service to cyberspace. Lawyer and offshore expert. Cyrus refused our request for an interview or to divulge the name of the person behind produce service but we tracked it down in a secretly recorded conversation she confirmed to that quick pace had been sold. Looking at a company quick. Yes. I remember because it was a currency and it was an act that. The Cyprus Company registry shows quick pace was transferred to one of the couple books says Many Companies and the more Property Holdings with the help of his Company Formation agent just a feel. The leaked documents also provide evidence that the quick pace deal was done or at least that is first phase began. Folks apparently made a payment from a london Bank Transfer two Million Dollars from Barclays Canary wharf ga back in new york was used to move the money they passed it to an offshore company with an account in latvia and a mystery owner the money went through no red flags. Western banks have had a hard time making money over the last few years so when somebody shows up and says i like to set up an account one hundred Million Dollars then you have to look for a pretty good reason not to set up that account. All the documents in the link lead us to a british Village North of london under british law this type of company that allows foreigners to avoid tax and scrutiny its called a limited liability partnership. Companies for it some people call them getaway cars for corrupt money i have heard a better described as on the plate. One of the companies is registered here this is the official office of a Company Worth hundreds of millions of dollars resources l. L. P. According to Bank Statements leaked to us finkel made three hundred twenty eight Million Dollars in just six months of twenty fifteen. But in public accounts filed with u. K. Authorities can call claimed it made less than seven thousand it looks like fraud so we came to ask about it. The managers of the address of the registered office had refused our request for an interview. One is well jeweled my work without is there are. We doing a an investigation into. Ukraine. This hard future office has registered over fifteen hundred companies so the people who work here just run a post box service. With the director secretary and address all being proxies finding out who really owns a company can be almost impossible. If you own something in your own name then you can just look on the Company Register on the property register and said that he got all of his house. But if i own that house in a company a British Company and if my British Company is owned by thats a separate company that my Cypriot Companies are owned by lets say Panamanian Company and if my plan your company is owned by a nevus company. Then if you want to find out who owns this house you have to go to every one of those jurisdictions and asked them. Who owns that company. Hello. Hello i wanted to ask about a couple of companies. Think o. Resources. Think all resources features in the files. Its know many directors were also involved in the magnitsky scandal. A lot being citizen called your event and signs the papers for the fin co is just a cutout for the person who really owns and controls the company. Another director is stan goren again a cutout whose name is regularly used as a front man by money launderers these name directors may be paid for the nominee role but are likely ignorant of any fraud. Information youve presented is what i call the pipe this is the pipe through which dirty money from Russia Ukraine and other countries in that part of the world all flow through is wrong effectively part of the same criminal operation. The pipeline leads to moscow. As well as the links with the magnitsky affair the documents feature hundreds of emails from lawyers based in. S. So concerned to conceal the name of that client they write in cryptic language. Good evening. February twenty sixth twenty fifteen put the book on the top shelf. Technical glass read the book and give a positive review of the. Council decision of three flows to leave in force the decision of wanting to flows. Sincerely is agreed in my supervisor. But who is the supervisor. We found the answer buried deep in a key document. A Loan Agreement shows quick pace was used to put up collateral by a Company Called vet media invest in order to borrow huge funds in october twenty fifth. Veteran belongs to surrogate kitchen co known as the baby faced gas king of ukraine by age twenty seven he was worth four hundred Million Dollars. From a presidency on a code which apparently treated him like a wallet. Gave cash to the president whenever he needed it. He was given control of a chunk of the gas tray he made a lot of money for himself and then he cut back most of it and to his political patrons which was you know your coverage winter just sun. Theres more evidence pointing to kitchen coas the cellar. A lawyer called boris gets off appears in the emails. Russian Business Records show hes director of united media holdings. United media used to belong to a surrogate joe. Cole was just businessmen but i can say a very talented corrupt judge because he used. A very tricky schemes very unusual schemes to steal like. Today hes in hiding in moscow wanted in ukraine sanctioned in the u. S. And europe. His office is in a skyscraper complex developed by pavel foxs companies. Two of his former drivers told us more about him. Kuching to his boys asking when we will arrive if you dont answer immediately youll be fired. It was the worst job i ever had. He swears he screams at his employees he fires two to three people every month is very inadequate. The drivers are worried that theyll be in danger if their former boss finds out theyve been talking to us. These unbalanced on the edge hes a vengeful person unprincipled and ruthless. Goes only given three interviews to journalists one was even going off. At the movie and yeah we shot him if you will only by your really not lived up to this relief the diversity or we dont have enough revenue in the mean yeah im a. Yes a sim yes although. I keep skookum hunting to save the poor which shes. Just. Yeah but the boston thing you are going to want to focus your affair almost i need you to wish for the news from you know. We tracked down janko using information from his former chauffeurs. Is guarded by alpha group former Counterterrorism Special forces. There for two wars and have state medals they are armed with rubber bullets. Just before seven am the guards receive information that hes coming they get in position. There are five cars eighteen people in the convoy. The cars are fitted and signal blockers with a two hundred meter range. The convoy includes a security travels in the second bullet proof. As a mobile ambulance with a medic. As a fourth vehicle blocking the entrance to the complex. And a fifth sweep a call. To change i dont argue and some chechen guys in a restaurant after that stepped up a security. Kitching to rushes out glimpsed for a split second before hes inside the building. His stuff bring his things and the drivers park and white. We often drive into the ministry of Economic Development the ministry of Natural Resources the National Space agency.

Im going to do this should be dont go on patrols because theyre its own you were speaking of there was more of an institution when you stress that i want to. Ukraine spy Agency Reports that hes helping the russian side in the conflict in ukraine. Hes running some of the biggest coal oil and Gas Companies in annexed crimea and the areas controlled by russian separatists almost always has all of the sort. Of stock sure and those are very new organs for billions corner of news. In most countries you have the government of criminals businessman in russia all those distinctions practically disappear. Its their interest afresh to destroy ukraine from inside its against the interest of gramlich. For ukraine to succeed you know im to corruption. Through the quick pace deal weve uncovered approach to profit from the billions stolen by the clan surrounding former ukrainian president Viktor Yushchenko that. A baby faced billionaire used dozens of lawyers seemingly to turn frozen assets into clean money. Or evidence was confirmed by one of the buyers of quick pace. Cars one of the businessman trumpeter or government. That was going to check. For on a shank or buying assets stolen in a grand Corruption Case is just another day at the office. Because like kind of business that you can buy cheap rent a car to. Who thinks the program to make the money is about to come when i revealed that we had the quake based documents on a shared code tonight that the deal went ahead. It was like normal business but this one has not happened yet we didnt buy they didnt know they wanted to sell us assets which was what i did for them they gave us a very Good Discount but then when chick who was slain on course a local on for the record. They may not yet have made money but all evidence directly contradicts on a shank his account of the deal did not go ahead official documents record a change of ownership of quick pace a lawyer in cyprus said the sale had happened. Something that i remember was in prison not for closing. Ukraines Anti Corruption bureau also confirm to say oh. We shouldnt. Miss just so this is can Business Model folks so we could get it to.
