Xavier Justo-- Swiss 'Whistleblower' or Crook?

1. In my continuing examination of the Malaysian 1MBD rumor, brand-new information has actually arised that showcases an intricate internet of intrigue, subterfuge and also corruption involving the meant 'Whistleblower' Xavier Andre Justo and a Swiss district attorney. Mr. Justo, a previous high-level staff member of PetroSaudi International SA, was incarcerated in Thailand for swiping a data source from his former company that broke the rumor. A Swiss prosecutor who himself is presently under examination for political corruption with a 'Problem of Interest' linked to the case and also a list of other varied actors extra proper of a Hollywood thriller than the real world scenarios. In my last short article I reported on the 1MBD detraction's influence in Canada. In 2012, Malaysia's state-owned energy firm Petronas acquired Canada's Progression Power for a reported $5.5 billion. At the time it was one of Malaysia's biggest international financial investments. Given the fact that the 1MBD detraction damaged following Petronas's hostile entry to Canada's oil and gas market, I started researching as well as reporting on the implications that corrupt international financiers from developing nations, such as Malaysia, might have in Canadian private market sectors. I chose to concentrate originally on the primary person credited with 'damaging' the story of the IMBD rumor - Xavier Andre Justo. Getting to the bottom of this facility event has been testing. Basically, the center monitoring of the firms associated with the 1MBD detraction, are for the most part, terrified to speak with journalists. Furthermore, the top tier executives of these firms will certainly likewise not take place the record. Recently, I lastly discovered an unhappy former executive of PetroSaudi International in addition to 2 previous buddies of Mr. Justo's who were all kind enough to give me some sorely needed history on the 'life as well as times' of Xavier Justo. The former Exec of PetroSaudi International spoke to me on condition of anonymity as well as likewise supplied me with papers, copies of text messages as well as various other product to sustain his claims that Xavier Justo, far from being a 'good deed doer', is in truth he is a con-artist that enjoys the good life and has a narcotics abuse problem that includes "hefty drinking as well as a lot of drug." I am currently verifying the product provided to us regarding Mr. Justo and will be releasing more excerpts quickly. He additionally bitterly chewed out PetroSaudi International for allowing Mr. Justo to climb in the firm places despite his popular partying lifestyle. These allegations were also validated by the two previous buddies of Mr. Justo, who were both jilted by him in personal finances that were never paid back. In February of this year, PetroSaudi International's Chief Executive Officer Tarek Essam Ahmad Obaid, company Supervisor Patrick Andrew Marc Mahony, and Malaysian dubious 'business owner' Low Taek Jho were all prosecuted in Malaysia by the MACC (Malaysian Anti-Corruption Compensation) over the 1MBD detraction. At the time, MACC happily introduced this in a news release and that all three implicated had been put on Interpol's 'Red Watch List'. After an intensive week of investigating the cases and counterclaims in between Mr. Justo and PetroSaudi International, my research team and I have wrapped up that Mr. Justo is an extreme go-getter with a previous criminal background who utilized his vital placement at PetroSaudi International as well as his close

2. friendship with CEO Tarek Obaid, to his very own advantage which the 'traditional media was fooled by his effort to make himself resemble an innocent 'whistleblower'. In addition to this, after examining Interpol's online 'Red Alert 'database it has been confirmed that neither Mr. Obaid nor Mr. Mahony have been put on Interpol's 'Red Watch List" and that they are not 'wanted fugitives' as suggested by several media outlets. My examination of Mr. Justo as well as from our resources noted above, confirmed that he has no formal college education and learning and that during the mid-2000's, he had ownership passions in some dubious clubs in Geneva. In 2006 Mr. Justo was apprehended by Swiss Federal Authorities for opening and handling an account of a widely known Spanish contraband criminal gang. The account was iced up for criminal origin of funds as well as cash laundering by the Geneva Financial Criminal Offense Cops. Mr. Justo was held for over 18 hrs and also was only launched after he, according to previous pals, provided statement versus the members of the criminal gang he was working for. Remarkably, he was launched without charges. PetroSaudi International's Chief Executive Officer Tarek Obaid, is a double person of Switzerland and Saudi Arabia and also finished from Georgetown University's prestigious Institution of Foreign Service. Before the 1MBD rumor Mr. Obaid had never been charged with a crime in any kind of nation. According to the previous PetroSaudi International Exec as well as former buddies of Mr. Justo that I spoke with, Mr. Obaid satisfied Mr. Justo on a basketball court when he was a 15-year-old that just immigrated to Switzerland. They struck up a deep relationship as Justo himself is an offspring of immigrant moms and dads. Justo acted as an advisor to Mr. Obaid, his peer in company and life in Switzerland during both of their youths. Years later on, Mr. Obaid gave Mr. Justo reduced level tasks to aid him sustain himself as well as his family due to Mr. Justo's regrettable economic scenarios. In these jobs Mr. Justo was used in numerous placements as a concierge, an automobile valet and managing little petty cash purchases for Mr. Obaid's workplace and family members. The mainstream media portraits of Mr. Justo being an 'International Lender' is incorrect; while he did operate in a couple of financial institutions as a low-level staff, he was never ever a 'lender' neither has he held any kind of senior setting in any kind http://edition.cnn.com/search/?text=Xavier Justo of Swiss or various other EU bank. He likewise does not have the proper education and learning or training for that sort of work. From records that we are still assessing, it is clear he stopped working to open up a savings account in numerous countries to get the payment for the stolen data, which present his claim to be an 'International lender' in a mocks light. Xavier Andre Justo individual life was, as we were told, highly unstable. Mr. Justo was married to Daphné Smits for some years. According to close friends of Mr. Justo, while he worked as a staff at Banque Scandinave en Suisse (BSS) in Geneva, he had sex-related encounters with his Manager's better half. A couple of months later on Mr. Justo supposedly had an additional affair with the partner of his buddy and was caught in the act. Because of this, his partner Daphné separated him and took all his cash. After that Justo started a charming partnership with Laura (his existing spouse) that he fulfilled when she was an assistant at the firm where he was working at the moment. In the meantime, Mr. Justo got heavily depressed as well as was afraid of revenge by the contraband criminal gang. Mr. Justo, as well as his then partner, Laura ran Xavier Justo away to Thailand as well as according to a previous close friend, "swiped all the cash from his Mommy's savings account to spend for the trip" After remaining in Thailand for several months, Mr. Justo contacted Mr. Obaid as well as informed him he was experiencing a lack of revenue and was "desperate" to support his family. In mid-2010, Mr. Obaid decided to give Mr. Justo another opportunity and provided him a brand-new task with PetroSaudi International in London on the condition that Mr. Justo dedicate to quit his regular drug routine and alcoholic abuse. Mr. Justo readily concurred. With a large salary plan of 400,000 British Extra pounds each year that

3. consisted of a fully paid deluxe house in Mayfair, Mr. Justo's life deviated for the better and his profession was back on track. Mr. Obaid, that highly trusted Mr. Justo his youth close friend, was focused on expanding his worldwide operations as well as required somebody in London he could trust to authorize company documents on his behalf, conduct regular workplace banking and other mundane administrative functions when Mr. Obaid was not in the area. Further examinations of Mr. Justo's and also Mr. Obaid's connection reveal the unbelievable trust fund that the former taken into the latter. From the many papers we are currently validating, one of them is a genuine copy of Mr. Justo's employment agreement with PetroSaudi International (below). One of the former close friends of Mr. Justo's that I spoke with stated that he could not think that Xavier had actually been offered such a high degree wage and count on that business (PetroSaudi International) ... I keep in mind once we were hanging out at Zumas in Knights Bridge and also he spent for our dish and all the bevi's on a business credit card ... the expense was outrageous ...". The former PetroSaudi International Exec we spoke to verified that within the business Mr. Justo was understood to regular high-priced London haunts in Knightsbridge and also Covent Yard two of London's the majority of special areas. (Zuma is a high-priced Japanese restaurant). The previous Exec also included that he recommended Mr. Obaid numerous times about Mr. Justo's social habits and ballooning expense accounts however that he (Mr. Obaid) "would not hear of it ... Tarek trusted this man because he was a youngster but never really understood him ... Mr. Obaid was premature, and had bad judgment when it involved childhood pals, it triggered a great deal of tension in the workplace ... it was so damn silly ... I could not take it any longer.". Mr. Justo got a 3-year prison sentence in Thailand in 2015 after being convicted of extortion, blackmailing as well as theft of PetroSaudi International's database. A criminal offense he easily admitted to. According to court statement as well as evidence provided by numerous witnesses, Mr. Justo's job performance

4. seriously shabby in late 2010 with numerous lacks as well as alcoholic binges that consisted of inappropriate behavior in the office. Then at first of April 2011 he missed out on a flight from London to New york city city where he resulted from fulfill a significant customer in addition to the investors of PetroSaudi International. Witnesses later on validated that Mr. Justo was high on cocaine and also highly intoxicated the evening before the trip. When he stopped working to turn up to the conference in New york city, he was summarily rejected from his placement. It was later on confirmed via a forensic examination that Mr. Justo took PetroSaudi International's database and made the last download of the 90Gb information 24h after he was terminated over the phone. This is the day that the 1MBD rumor began. Xavier Andre Justo's criminal activities and also indulgent drug habit triggered the globe's largest monetary detraction, reduced the Malaysian federal government, initiated criminal procedures in Switzerland, Singapore, the EU and also the United States and set you back the Malaysian individuals billions of dollars. It is time the full truth comes to light on this story. With this thought in mind, I will be publishing even more write-ups over the coming days and weeks regarding the 1MBD detraction as well as posting 'never-seen-before' documents that will offer my visitors a clear understanding on how a lower level staff member, who had a regular alcohol and drug abuse issue, had the ability to stir up one of the biggest financial scandals in contemporary history.
