– Crimes against the State and ordinary crimes: double standards
Abuse of power  - Taxes  
The efficient State at its own service KBC, this leading Flemish bank, is definitely lacking in luck. Unless it is the victim of a corporate culture that is too pragmatic, on the profit side, and too tight, on the ethical side? Still, she was once again indicted as a legal person on Tuesday, “La Libre” learned. It is a question of money laundering, forgery and use of forgery as well as tax fraud... The case dates back to 2005. At that time, two people who, around ten years ...Read More >>
