The Inland Revenue is investigating deposit accounts held by Spaniards in Liechtenstein in relation to possible tax evasion.
There are 198 Spaniards whose names are connected with 80 deposit accounts in the principality. The Anti-Corruption Prosecutor first detected irregularities in Germany and this then led to further discoveries in a number of other countries.
The investigation began as a result of information obtained by the German Secret Service concerning accounts held at the LTG Bank in Liechtenstein. It is thought that these accounts were set up in order to evade paying taxes.
