Pet let zapora za sprožitelja afere Swissleaks

Nekdanjega zaposlenega v švicarski enoti britanske banke HSBC Herveja Falcianija so na sodišču v Švici obsodili na pet let zapora zaradi industrijskega vohunjenja.

Falciani je februarja sprožil veliko afero o utaji davkov premožnim strankam. Večina je prepričana, da je zgolj žvižgač, švicarske oblasti pa trdijo, da je z izdajo podatkov želel zaslužiti.

Na Twitterju večinoma ogorčeni:

Incredible that we'd trust anything or anyone with Swiss interests. European Mafia. https://t.co/YQtNU5Twre
