Xavier Justo-- Swiss 'Whistleblower' or Criminal?

1. In my proceeding investigation of the Malaysian 1MBD rumor, brand-new details has arised that showcases a complex web of intrigue, subterfuge and corruption involving the meant 'Whistleblower' Xavier Andre Justo and a Swiss prosecutor. Mr. Justo, a previous top-level staff member of PetroSaudi International SA, was incarcerated in Thailand for stealing a database from his previous employer that damaged the scandal. A Swiss prosecutor that himself is currently under examination for political corruption with a 'Conflict of Passion' connected to the situation and a litany of other diverse stars much more proper of a Hollywood thriller than real life situations. In my last post I reported on the 1MBD detraction's influence in Canada. In 2012, Malaysia's state-owned power business Petronas got Canada's Development Energy for a reported $5.5 billion. At the time it was one of Malaysia's biggest international investments. Given the reality that the 1MBD rumor broke after Petronas's hostile entrance to Canada's oil and gas sector, I began researching and reporting on the ramifications that corrupt foreign investors from creating countries, such as Malaysia, might have in Canadian personal market sectors. I decided to concentrate initially on the primary individual credited with 'damaging' the tale of the IMBD rumor - Xavier Andre Justo. Getting to the bottom of this complicated event has been challenging. Basically, the middle administration of the companies associated with the 1MBD detraction, are generally, frightened to talk with reporters. Furthermore, the top rate executives of these companies will certainly likewise not go on the record. Last week, I lastly located an unhappy previous executive of PetroSaudi International as well as two former pals of Mr. Justo's who were all kind enough to provide me some sorely needed history on the 'life and times' of Xavier Justo. The former Exec of PetroSaudi International spoke with me on condition of anonymity and likewise provided me with documents, duplicates of sms message and other product to sustain his claims that Xavier Justo, far from being a 'kind deed doer', remains in reality he is a con-artist who takes pleasure in the good life as well as has a narcotics abuse problem that consists of "heavy drinking and a lot of cocaine." I am currently confirming the product given to us concerning Mr. Justo as well as will be releasing more passages quickly. He additionally bitterly bawled out PetroSaudi International for enabling Mr. Justo to increase in the firm ranks in spite of his

2. widely known partying way of life. These claims were additionally confirmed by the two previous good friends of Mr. Justo, who were both jilted by him in individual fundings that were never paid back. In February of this year, PetroSaudi International's CEO Tarek Essam Ahmad Obaid, firm Supervisor Patrick Andrew Marc Mahony, as well as Malaysian dubious 'entrepreneur' Reduced Taek Jho were all fingered in Malaysia by the MACC (Malaysian Anti-Corruption Compensation) over the 1MBD scandal. At the time, MACC happily announced this in a press release which all 3 accused had been put on Interpol's 'Red Watch Checklist'. After an extensive week of checking out the insurance claims and counterclaims between Mr. Justo and PetroSaudi International, my research team as well as I have concluded that Mr. Justo is an extreme go-getter with a previous criminal background who used his crucial position at PetroSaudi International and his close relationship with CEO Tarek Obaid, to his very own advantage and that the 'mainstream media was misleaded by his attempt to make himself appear like an innocent 'whistleblower'. In addition to this, after inspecting Interpol's on-line 'Red Alert 'database it has actually been verified that neither Mr. Obaid nor Mr. Mahony have actually been placed on Interpol's 'Red Watch Checklist" and that they are not 'wanted fugitives' as suggested by lots of media electrical outlets. My investigation 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 interests in some shady clubs in Geneva. In 2006 Mr. Justo was apprehended by Swiss Federal Cops for opening up as well as managing an account of a popular Spanish contraband criminal gang. The account was frozen for criminal beginning of funds as well as cash laundering by the Geneva Financial Crime Police. Mr. Justo was held for over 18 hours as well as was just launched after he, according to previous close friends, provided testament versus the participants of the criminal gang he was benefiting. Surprisingly, he was released without charges. PetroSaudi International's Chief Executive Officer Tarek Obaid, is a dual resident of Switzerland and Saudi Arabia as well as graduated from Georgetown College's distinguished School of Foreign Service. Prior to the 1MBD rumor Mr. Obaid had actually never ever been charged with a crime in any country. According to the former PetroSaudi International Exec as well as previous friends of Mr. Justo that I spoke to, Mr. Obaid fulfilled Mr. Justo on a basketball court when he was a 15-year-old that just come in to Switzerland. They struck up a deep friendship as Justo himself is a descendant of immigrant moms and dads. Justo served as a mentor to Mr. Obaid, his peer in

3. company and life in Switzerland throughout both of their young people. Years later, Mr. Obaid offered Mr. Justo reduced level work to aid him sustain himself and also his family because of Mr. Justo's unfavorable financial circumstances. In these work Mr. Justo was utilized in numerous placements as a doorman, a car valet as well as dealing with small petty cash acquisitions for Mr. Obaid's office and family members. The mainstream media pictures of Mr. Justo being an 'International Lender' is incorrect; while he did work in a couple of financial institutions as a low-level clerk, he was never ever a 'banker' neither has he held any senior placement in any kind of Swiss or various other EU bank. He also does not have the appropriate education or training for that kind of job. From files that we are still evaluating, it is clear he fell short to open a bank account in several countries to get the repayment for the stolen data, which present his insurance claim to be an 'International banker' in a mocks light. Xavier Andre Justo individual life was, as we were told, highly unpredictable. Mr. Justo was wed to Daphné Smits for some years. According to buddies of Mr. Justo, while he worked as a clerk at Banque Scandinave en Suisse (BSS) in Geneva, he had sexual encounters with his Manager's spouse. A few months later Mr. Justo apparently had an additional affair with the spouse of his best friend and was caught in the act. Because of this, his spouse Daphné separated him and also took all his cash. Then Justo started a romantic relationship with Laura (his existing partner) who he fulfilled when she was an assistant at the company where he was working at the time. In the meantime, Mr. Justo got heavily clinically depressed and was afraid of retaliation by the contraband criminal gang. Mr. Justo, and his after that partner, Laura escaped to Thailand as well as according to a previous close friend, "stole all the money from his Mom's savings account to spend for the journey" After being in Thailand for several months, Mr. Justo contacted Mr. Obaid as well as told him he was struggling with a lack of earnings as well as was "desperate" to sustain his household. In mid-2010, Mr. Obaid determined to give Mr. Justo one more opportunity and also offered him a new task with PetroSaudi International in London on the problem that Mr. Justo dedicate to stop his regular cocaine routine and alcoholic abuse. Mr. Justo easily agreed. With a large wage plan of 400,000 British Extra pounds per year that included a fully paid plush apartment or condo in Mayfair, Mr. Justo's life deviated right and also his job was back on the right track. Mr. Obaid, who highly relied on Mr. Justo his childhood years close friend, was concentrated on growing his worldwide procedures as well as required a person in London he could trust to authorize business documents on his behalf, conduct regular office banking as well as various other mundane management functions when Mr. Obaid was not in the area. More investigations of Mr. Justo's as well as Mr. Obaid's connection reveal the astounding count on http://query.nytimes.com/search/sitesearch/?action=click&contentCollection&region=TopBar&WT.nav=searchWidget&module=SearchSubmit&pgtype=Homepage#/Xavier Justo that the previous put into the latter. From the many records we are presently verifying, one of them is an authentic copy of Mr. Justo's employment contract with PetroSaudi International (below). Among the previous friends of Mr. Justo's that I interviewed mentioned that he could not think that Xavier had actually been given such a high degree income as well as count on that business (PetroSaudi International) ... I remember once we were hanging out at Zumas in Knights Bridge and he paid for our meal and all the bevi's on a business credit card ... the costs was shocking ...". The previous PetroSaudi International Executive we talked to verified that within the firm Mr. Justo was recognized to frequent expensive London haunts in Knightsbridge as well as Covent Garden 2 of London's a lot of special areas. (Zuma is a high-priced Japanese dining establishment). The previous Executive additionally added that he

4. advised Mr. Obaid a number of times regarding Mr. Justo's social actions as well as ballooning expense accounts yet that he (Mr. Obaid) "would not hear of it ... blackmail Tarek trusted this guy since he was a youngster but never really understood him ... Mr. Obaid was premature, as well as had bad judgment when it involved childhood years buddies, it caused a lot of tension in the workplace ... it was so damn foolish ... I couldn't take it anymore.". Mr. Justo received a 3-year prison sentence in Thailand in 2015 after being convicted of extortion, blackmailing and theft of PetroSaudi International's data source. A criminal offense he readily admitted to. According to court statement and also evidence provided by numerous witnesses, Mr. Justo's work performance seriously worn-out in late 2010 with numerous lacks as well as alcoholic binges that included inappropriate behavior in the office. Then at first of April 2011 he missed a trip from London to New york city city where he resulted from satisfy a major client in addition to the investors of PetroSaudi International. Witnesses later on confirmed that Mr. Justo was high up on drug and very intoxicated the night prior to the flight. When he fell short to show up to the meeting in New york city, he was peremptorily dismissed from his placement. It was later on validated through a forensic investigation that Mr. Justo stole PetroSaudi International's data source as well as made the last download of the 90Gb information 24h after he was terminated over the phone. This is the day that the 1MBD scandal began. Xavier Andre Justo's criminal activities and also indulgent drug habit stimulated the world's most significant monetary detraction, lowered the Malaysian federal government, started criminal procedures in Switzerland, Singapore, the EU and the United States as well as set you back the Malaysian people billions of dollars. It is time the complete reality comes to light on this tale. With this thought in mind, I will certainly be publishing even more short articles over the coming days as well as weeks regarding the 1MBD detraction and also publishing 'never-seen-before' files that will provide my readers a clear understanding on exactly how a lower degree staff member, who had a habitual drug and alcohol abuse problem, was able to ignite one of the most significant financial scandals in contemporary background.
