Reading time: 1 minute
An alleged mafia money launderer listed his occupation as “fraudster” when registering a British shell company, the Evening Standard reports.
Antonio Righi, who faces criminal charges for alleged links to the mafia and conspiracy to money laundering, registered Magnolia Fundaction UK with Companies House.
Its documents name a director with the surname “Il Ladro di Galline”, meaning “The Chicken Thief”.
Righi gives his own occupation as “fraudster”, using the Italian word “truffatore”.
Another director is called “Banda Bassotti”, the Italian name for a gang of crooks in the Donald Duck universe, with the address “0, Street of the 40 Thieves, Ali Babba”.
The business controlled £200 million worth of other companies, suspected to have been used to launder millions.
