Trump Could Be Facing A Money Laundering Investigation In Scotland.

https://www.politicususa.com/2021/10/26/court-weighs-opening-trump-money-laundering-investigation-in-scotland.html

"SNIP.......

The Scotsman reported:

A judicial review into the Scottish Government’s refusal to pursue an Unexplained Wealth Order (UWO) into the former US president’s business was told the money for Mr Trump’s golf resorts was being “funnelled in from elsewhere outside the UK from apparently unlimited funds”.

….

The so-called ‘McMafia’ order allows authorities to target suspected corrupt foreign officials who have potentially laundered stolen money through the UK. The civil power is designed to force the owners of assets to disclose their wealth. If an official, or their family, cannot prove a legitimate source for their riches, authorities can go to court to seize property.

Trump Could Be Forced To Disclose Where His Money Is Coming From.

Trump’s math for his Scottish golf course is not adding up, and many suspect that Trump is laundering money through the golf course. Any investigation that forces Trump to disclose the real sources of his wealth could be devastating both at home and abroad.

2. The article says the court could seize assets

I saw no mention of jail in the article.

5. They can "seize ass". I don't know what "ets" means, though.

3. Of course he's money laundering, practically all he ever does businesswise

4. I'm so tired of the "coulds".

I want him to be accountable for something. Just one damn thing.

6. Keep the charges coming! We need to pile enough rocks on top of this zombie's grave to keep

him down forever.

7. Okay, so it's the COURT'S acting BECAUSE the Scottish Gov't has not pursued a UWO.

That, is also very fishy!

More info preceeds the original post:


"Court Weighs Opening Trump Money Laundering Investigation In Scotland"


"The highest court in Scotland is hearing an argument on opening a money-laundering investigation into Donald Trump’s finances."

"A judicial review into the Scottish Government’s refusal to pursue an Unexplained Wealth Order (UWO) into the former US president’s business was told the money for Mr Trump’s golf resorts was being “funnelled in from elsewhere outside the UK from apparently unlimited funds”.

8. Yes, your post title is what jumped out at me in this article,

begging the question, "WHY has the Scottish Government "refused" to pursue a UWO?????"
