A judge is expected to begin hearing evidence from witnesses Monday in a case where construction magnate Antonio (Tony) Accurso is alleged to have bribed two Canada Revenue Agency auditors so he could avoid paying taxes on revenue generated by the empire he created.
Accurso, 69, and the two CRA employees Antonio Girardi, 56, and Adriano Furgiuele, 52 as well as two other men face five charges each; fraud, forgery, breach of trust of a public official, conspiracy to commit fraud, conspiracy to commit perjury and conspiracy to commit breach of trust.
