This morning 19 lawyers and Notaries (dont know the split) were arrested in Marbella in connection with a money laundering scam. As yet there are no details as to whether it was property related although there is every chance it was. Nobody seems to have specifics yet as to the Notaries or specific lawyers involved. It has been announced that it was nothing to do with Malaya or White Whale but guess watch this space.

My lawyers gave me the news this afternoon. He was saying that the swoop included 3 Notaries and that it relates to Dodgy money transfers over a long period. But he was also saying how difficult it is for lawyers .to check out the status of every client has they often they come up lily white(Not Whale) through standard checks? You almost have to be a forensic banker to catch out some these crooks?

By the way Pat Veronika is coming over late Wed pm and we fly back Sunday. Let me know if and when you would like to meet up. Then I´ll call you!...........

For what I´ve heard on the radio and TV, the Lawyer´s firm raided was Cruz Conde..... it seems they have arrested 19 people including 3 ( three) Notaries, lawyers, etc..... two of them spent some time also inside with the "white whale" affaire.--

Now, Sur says now that the operation was "named" "Hidalgo" and it was on the go for at least two years...... aparently it recalled the atention of the investigation the fact that there were more than 800 companies without activity registered by the same law office most of them with the same address, and with some employees showing as "directors"... and apparently, once again according to "SUR" were involved in some sort of "financial engineering" apparently tending to bleach things coming from other places....

They have "intervenido" properties, cars, bank accounts and so, so, so.....

They have used more than 150 personel to make the de detentions and the operative in itself and apparently the "downtown" Marbella was plenty of cops....

This was Juan Pánzon, reporting from Bagdahd.... let us see what will stand standing after all this.......

Yeah but when you're out with an old crock mate the most youre likely to catch is a cold. Can do a meet if you want before you return but needs to be liaised prior to - got a lot on at the moment
