Björn Strehl, OneCoin founder Ruja Ignatova’s ex-husband, has been charged with cash laundering.
German prosecutors from Darmstadt have accomplished their investigation into Strehl. Their findings have now been forwarded to Darmstadt’s Regional Courtroom.
Because of German privateness legal guidelines, Strehl (proper) hasn’t been named by Public Prosecutors or the Darmstadt Regional Courtroom. As an alternative Strehl is cited as a “44-year-old lawyer from Neu-Isenburg”.
Neu-Isenburg is a city simply south of Frankfurt, a big metropolis in Germany’s south-west.
As reported by NRWZ’s Martin Himmelheber, Strehl has been charged with laundering 7.69 million euros by way of a Hong Kong shell firm.
The funds are tied to OneCoin and are believed to have been laundered on the behest of Strehl’s then spouse Ruja Ignatova.
Though he frequently attended OneCoin occasions and presumably financially benefited from OneCoin, Strehl stored a low profile.
I’d assume 7.69 million euros is simply the tip of the iceberg for somebody that near Ignatova however, so far, that is all German Prosecutors have provide you with.
Having obtained Strehl’s indictment and legal fees from Public Prosecutors, the Darmstadt Regional Courtroom will now determine whether or not the case progresses to trial.
