Been the first day of the trial in London of the one-time fugitive from justice Mr Asil Nadir. Once a darling of investors in the City of London and in the Occupied Areas.

Of massive interest to the owners of the citrus fruit orchards and industry of Morphou and Lapithos and to the Illegal Regime and maybe to a previous GB administration who many feel got too close to this affair.

The charges are for fraud and theft of amounts that have reached a staggering £GB300 Million, which it is alleged he siphoned off from the firm Polly Peck International. Much of this money we hear finding its way to the Occupied Areas, into what a BBC reporter has just described as into black holes in subsidiary companies in "northern Cyprus".

Trial expected to last a very long 4 months.

Oh by the way... I believe a chap called Ersin Tatar who is the Pseudo "finance minister" of the Illegal Regime was the Treasurer of Polly Peck International.

Businessman Asil Nadir would have needed banknotes 300 times the height of Nelson's Column to balance the books of his empire, the Old Bailey hears.

He has said when pounds were taken out in London, equivalent amounts in Turkish lire were placed in a subsidiary firm in northern Cyprus.

Hey BillC, any news of A.Nadir?

by **bill cobbett** » Sat Jan 28, 2012 5:41 pm

The last news being reported is covered above, was about the remarkable claims that whilst AD was withdrawing huge amounts out of Polly Peck in London, his mother Safiye was paying equivalent amounts of cash in the shape of Turkish Lira bank-notes in to the bank Industrial Bank of Kibris, based in the Occupied Areas and owned by Asil Nadir.

These amounts were for billions of liras and the prosecution claims they would have weighed 135 tonnes!

That's some hand-bag your mother has Mr Nadir...

Yes, have heard of similar rumours over the years but have never heard of any evidence to support them.

As to some involvement of the ruling GB party of the time, the only revelation back then was the closeness of one of the government ministers, a Michael Mates, to AD, who resigned his position... and of course the fact that AD was a major contributor of funds to the Tory administration.

... but it will be interesting to find out more IF this trial goes all the way.

A tiny bit more reported in the London Turkish Kibris Gazette about the alleged role of Ersin Tatar, currently "finance minister" for the Illegal Regime and a director of Akfinans "bank"... A "bank" that has been said to have conspired with various CarpetBuggers in false documents, trespass and land theft against rightful owners in the village of Vassillia near Lapithos, Kyrenia District...

"The prosecution also allege Mr Nadir was helped by a number of associates including Ersin Tatar, assistant treasurer who helped in the “dishonest appropriation of money from PPI”. One employee who found discrepancies was told to “keep his mouth shut” by Mr Tatar, it is claimed."
