Xavier Justo-- Swiss 'Whistleblower' or Bad guy?

1. In my continuing examination of the Malaysian 1MBD rumor, new info has arised that showcases an intricate internet of intrigue, subterfuge and corruption involving the supposed 'Whistleblower' Xavier Andre Justo as well as a Swiss prosecutor. Mr. Justo, a previous top-level employee of PetroSaudi International SA, was imprisoned in Thailand for stealing a data source from his former employer that damaged the scandal. A Swiss prosecutor who himself is currently under examination for political corruption with a 'Dispute of Interest' attached to the instance as well as a list of various other diverse stars a lot more proper of a Hollywood thriller than the real world scenarios. In my last post I reported on the 1MBD scandal's impact in Canada. In 2012, Malaysia's state-owned power firm Petronas got Canada's Progression Energy for a reported $5.5 billion. At the time it was among Malaysia's largest international investments. Given the truth that the 1MBD scandal broke following Petronas's aggressive entrance to Canada's oil and also gas industry, I started investigating as well as reporting on the implications that corrupt international capitalists from establishing countries, such as Malaysia, might have in Canadian personal market fields. I made a decision to concentrate at first on the main individual credited with 'breaking' the story of the IMBD detraction - Xavier Andre Justo. Getting to the bottom of this complex affair has actually been challenging. Basically, the middle administration of the business involved in the 1MBD scandal, are for the most part, frightened to talk with reporters. Additionally, the leading tier executives of these companies will also not go on the document. Recently, I ultimately located an unhappy previous executive of PetroSaudi International in addition to two previous good friends of Mr. Justo's that were all kind enough to provide me some sorely needed background on the 'life and also times' of Xavier Justo. The former Executive of PetroSaudi International talked with me on condition of anonymity and also gave me with files, copies of text and various other material to support his claims that Xavier Justo, far from being a 'good deed doer', remains in truth he is a con-artist that appreciates the good life as well as has a narcotics abuse problem that consists of "hefty drinking and also a lot of cocaine." I am presently confirming the material provided to us concerning Mr. Justo and also will be releasing more passages soon. He also bitterly lambasted PetroSaudi International for permitting Mr. Justo to increase in the company places regardless of his widely known partying way of life. These claims were also verified by the 2 former buddies of Mr. Justo, that were both jilted by him in personal car loans that were never ever repaid. In February of this year, PetroSaudi International's CEO Tarek Essam Ahmad Obaid, business Supervisor Patrick Andrew Marc Mahony, as well as Malaysian shady 'businessman' Low Taek Jho were all indicted in Malaysia by the MACC (Malaysian Anti-Corruption Compensation) over the 1MBD detraction. At the time, MACC proudly announced this in a news release which all three accused had actually been put on Interpol's 'Red Watch Listing'. After an intensive week of checking out the insurance claims as well as counterclaims in between Mr. Justo as well as PetroSaudi International, my research team as well as I have actually concluded that Mr. Justo is an extreme opportunist with a previous criminal background who used his key position at PetroSaudi International and his close relationship with CEO Tarek Obaid, to his very own benefit which the 'conventional media was fooled by his effort to make himself look like an innocent 'whistleblower'. Along with this, after checking Interpol's online 'Red Alert 'database it has actually been verified that neither Mr. Obaid nor Mr. Mahony have actually been put on Interpol's 'Red Watch List" which they are not 'wanted fugitives' as suggested by several media outlets.

2. My investigation of Mr. Justo as well as from our resources noted above, confirmed that he has no official college education and learning which throughout the mid-2000's, he had possession passions in some questionable clubs in Geneva. In 2006 Mr. Justo was restrained by Swiss Federal Authorities for opening up as well as handling an account of a well-known Spanish contraband criminal gang. The account was iced up for criminal beginning of funds and also money laundering by the Geneva Financial Criminal Activity Police. Mr. Justo was held for over 18 hours as well as was only launched after he, according to former friends, offered statement against the participants of the criminal gang he was helping. Surprisingly, he was launched without charges. PetroSaudi International's CEO Tarek Obaid, is a double person of Switzerland and Saudi Arabia as well as graduated from Georgetown University's distinguished Institution of Foreign Service. Before the 1MBD detraction Mr. Obaid had actually never ever been charged with a crime in any country. According to the previous PetroSaudi International Executive and former buddies of Mr. Justo that I spoke to, Mr. Obaid met Mr. Justo on a basketball court when he was a 15-year-old that simply immigrated to Switzerland. They struck up a deep friendship as Justo himself is an offspring of immigrant moms and dads. Justo served as an advisor to Mr. Obaid, his peer in business and life in Switzerland throughout both of their young people. Years later, Mr. Obaid provided Mr. Justo reduced level tasks to aid him maintain himself and also his family members due to Mr. Justo's unfavorable economic scenarios. In these tasks Mr. Justo was used in different positions as a doorman, a vehicle valet and dealing with tiny petty cash purchases for Mr. Obaid's office and family members. The mainstream media portraits of Mr. Justo being an 'International Banker' is incorrect; while he did operate in a number of banks as a low-level clerk, he was never ever a 'lender' neither has he held any type of senior setting in any kind of Swiss or other EU bank. He likewise does not have the appropriate education and learning or training for that sort of task. From documents that we are still reviewing, it is clear he failed to open up a bank account in numerous countries to get the repayment for the taken data, which present his claim to be an 'International lender' in a ridicules light. Xavier Andre Justo individual life was, as we were told, very unsteady. Mr. Justo was married to Daphné Smits for some years. According to close friends of Mr. Justo, while he worked as a clerk at Banque Scandinave en Suisse (BSS) in Geneva, he had sex-related experiences with his Boss's better half. A couple of months later on Mr. Justo supposedly had an additional event with the spouse of his friend and was caught in the act. As a result, his better half Daphné separated him as well as took all his cash. After that Justo started a romantic relationship with Laura (his current partner) that he fulfilled when she was an assistant at the firm where he was operating at the moment. In the meantime, Mr. Justo obtained greatly clinically depressed and hesitated of retaliation by the contraband criminal gang. Mr. Justo, and his after that partner, Laura escaped to Thailand and also according to a previous friend, "took all the cash from his Mom's checking account to pay for the journey" After being in Thailand for several months, Mr. Justo spoke to Mr. Obaid as well as told him he was dealing with a lack of revenue and was "determined" to support his family members. In mid-2010, Mr. Obaid determined to give Mr. Justo another opportunity as well as offered him a brand-new task

3. with PetroSaudi International in London on the problem that Mr. Justo devote to quit his regular drug routine as well as alcoholic abuse. Mr. Justo easily concurred. With a significant salary bundle of blackmail 400,000 British Pounds per year that included a fully paid plush house in Mayfair, Mr. Justo's life took a turn for the better and his career was back on the right track. Mr. Obaid, that very relied on Mr. Justo his youth friend, was concentrated on growing his worldwide procedures and also required somebody in London he might depend authorize company papers on his part, conduct routine office banking and also other ordinary management functions when Mr. Obaid was not around. Additional examinations of Mr. Justo's as well as Mr. Obaid's partnership expose the astonishing count on that the former taken into the last. From the numerous files we are currently confirming, among them is a genuine duplicate of Mr. Justo's employment contract with PetroSaudi International (listed below). Among the former buddies of Mr. Justo's that I spoke with stated that he could not believe that Xavier had actually been provided such a high degree wage and count on that company (PetroSaudi International) ... I bear in mind one-time we were hanging out at Zumas in Knights Bridge and also he spent for our meal and all the bevi's on a business bank card ... the bill was shocking ...". The previous PetroSaudi International Exec we talked to verified that within the company Mr. Justo was recognized to frequent high-priced London haunts in Knightsbridge as well as Covent Garden two of London's many special areas. (Zuma is a high-priced Japanese dining establishment). The former Exec additionally included that he suggested Mr. Obaid numerous times regarding Mr. Justo's social behavior http://www.thefreedictionary.com/Xavier Justo and ballooning expense accounts but that he (Mr. Obaid) "would not hear of it ... Tarek trusted this individual considering that he was a child yet never ever actually understood him ... Mr. Obaid was premature, and also had bad judgment when it involved childhood friends, it triggered a lot of stress in the workplace ... it was so damn silly ... I couldn't take it any longer.". Mr. Justo got a 3-year prison sentence in Thailand in 2015 after being founded guilty of extortion, blackmailing and also theft of PetroSaudi International's database. A criminal offense he conveniently confessed to. According to court testimony and evidence given by countless witnesses, Mr. Justo's work efficiency seriously scrubby in late 2010 with a number of lacks as well as alcoholic binges that consisted of inappropriate behavior in the office. After that in the beginning of April 2011 he missed out on a trip from London to New york city city where he was because of satisfy a significant client in addition to the investors of PetroSaudi International. Witnesses later on verified that Mr. Justo was high on drug and also extremely intoxicated the night before the flight. When he failed to turn up to the meeting in New york city, he was summarily dismissed from his placement. It was later confirmed with a forensic examination that Mr. Justo swiped PetroSaudi International's database as well as made the last download of the 90Gb information 24h after he was terminated over the phone. This is the

4. date that the 1MBD scandal began. Xavier Andre Justo's criminal actions and indulgent drug habit triggered the globe's greatest financial scandal, reduced the Malaysian government, launched criminal procedures in Switzerland, Singapore, the EU and also the USA and cost the Malaysian people billions of dollars. It is time the complete fact emerges on this story. With this believed in mind, I will be posting even more posts over the coming days and also weeks concerning the 1MBD scandal and also publishing 'never-seen-before' papers that will provide my readers a clear understanding on how a lower degree worker, that had a habitual alcohol and drug misuse issue, had the ability to stir up one of the greatest economic scandals in contemporary background.
