A UK-based Ghanaian woman with three different names, has been listed in Britain's top 10 tax dodgers. Christine Ago, also known as Khristine Frimpong and Jennifer Christine Koranteng (left), was sentenced to three years for money laundering offences in 2008. The new alleged tax-dodgers have been added to the British Government’s most-wanted list but only one of the original 20 has been caught in the past year. All the 10 people listed are said to have cost the British taxpayer between £120,000 and £10 million. Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (HMRC) last year published the names and pictures of 20 people accused of fleeing while owing hundreds of thousands of pounds - and in many instances millions. The appeal helped provide intelligence on 15 of the alleged offenders, no update on four and one was captured, according to HMRC. A second man not included in the original list of 20 but later said to be on it has also been caught in the last 12 months, the department says. HMRC has now renewed its appeals on 19 of the suspects while adding 10 new names wanted in connection with offences including VAT fraud, tax evasion and money laundering. Chancellor George Osborne said the new list will help bring more 'tax fraudsters' to justice. But Labour insisted the most-wanted list had been a 'huge failure' with so many suspects yet to be caught. The new list includes Michael George Voudouri, who pleaded guilty at Glasgow High Court in relation to money laundering linked to VAT fraud but failed to appear for sentencing. HMRC said the man, aged between 40 and 50, is believed to be residing in northern Cyprus and is estimated to have cost taxpayers £10 million. Anish Anand, aged between 25 and 35, is also included after failing to appear at Croydon Crown Court in April 2013 in relation to £6 million VAT and film tax credit fraud. Anand was convicted in his absence last month and is thought to be in the UK. Another on the list is Michael 'Arthur' Fearon, aged between 18 and 25, who was charged in connection with evasion of excise duty on nearly 8.4 million Benson & Hedges cigarettes, according to HMRC. He is also wanted by the UK Border Agency in connection with money laundering offences and also by Republic of Ireland police for driving offences. HMRC said he crossed over the border into Northern Ireland driving a Black Mercedes C200 CDI Sport. The department estimates the Northern Irish man has cost taxpayers £2million and believes he is in the Republic of Ireland. Mr Osborne said: 'The Government has stepped up HMRC’s enforcement activities to enable them to pursue tax cheats relentlessly around the world. 'The publication of HMRC’s Most Wanted has already helped catch two people wanted for tax fraud. 'This new list will help put more tax fraudsters in the spotlight and bring them to justice.' But shadow Treasury minister Catherine McKinnell said: 'One year on, it’s a huge failure that 18 of the 20 most wanted tax fraudsters have still not been caught. 'At a time when families are facing a cost of living crisis, it’s even more important that everyone pays their fair share of tax. The Government needs to do better.' The two men caught since the most-wanted list first emerged are John Nugent, 53, and Anthony Judge, aged between 35 and 45. HMRC said Nugent fraudulently claimed more than £22million in duty and VAT reclaims. The Crown Prosecution Service announced on May 31 that Nugent had been jailed for four and a half years for an £11 million fraud. Judge was wanted for his role in arranging financial crimes totaling more than £350,000, HMRC said. He failed to appear at Canterbury Crown Court in 2003 to answer charges relating to money laundering and had not been seen since. HMRC said Judge was caught at Heathrow Airport on July 4 while travelling on a false passport and has since pleaded guilty. source http://ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/diaspora/artikel.php?ID=281984 |
Religion in the public should be criminalized |
He would have not died TB JOSHUA would have prayed for him. But some of his cabinet members are happy of his death. The racist tribe in Ghana ASHANTIS are not happy for northerner HAUSA to rule Ghana. i see BOKO HARAM in Ghana |
Ghanians are so dumb that's why a presidential candidate in Ghana is promising every Ghanians chicken. only to chop kenkey dem sabi with Banku http://blog.afrimalls.com/cpp-promises-every-ghanaian-free-chicken-if-the-party-wins-2012-election/ Ironi: What a retarrd. |
Ironi: Who is more Xenophobic than Nigeria, don't throw around words you don't understand.monkey NPP MAN is that the definition of xenophobia, keep on posting trash why we are buying your entire economy. if your useless prideful ASHANTIS people do anything silly against Mahama you will see how fast BOKO HARAM will spring up in Ghana. Lazy and jealous people |
tzooh: Once again, many nigerians like you dont do proper research before writing. Lagos state gdp (ppp) is 36 billion dollars as of 2012 and ghana's gdp (ppp) as of 2012 is 82 billion dollars according to imf. The reason why nigerians seem to think lagos state's gdp is greater than ghana's gdp was because nigerians compared lagos state's gdp (ppp) to ghana's gdp (nominal). Back in 2007, ghana's gdp nominal was $29 billion while lagos state's gdp ppp was $33 billion. Thats why most of you believed lagos state is even richer than ghana. But its not, lagos state's gdp nominal back in 2007 was 17 billion dollars which is lower than ghana's 2007 gdp nominal. Please stop misleading yourself and others. There are two types of gdp. Comparing gdp ppp to gdp nominal is different. Lagos state's economy is not greater than ghana's economy so please stop your ignorant rantsits the investment FROM LAGOS we decide to extend to our colony called Ghana that increase the GDP |

PetroDolla: Obvious your level of intelligence is pretty shallow, even by animals standards. first, you really think having a few nigerian banks and globacom in Ghana amounts to nigerians 'dominating' the Ghanaian economy? such a thought can only exist in the mind of a foolish,clueless, bombastic slowpoke. come to Ghana and see things for your self. your demented brain also does not tell you that a nigerian bastard having assets in Ghana is as good as having lost it,huh? its just a metter of time,goat. your goddam country is already in the dustbin. Only yesterday, access bank was suspended for 6 months from foreign exchange transactions in Ghana for engaging in illegal activities. |

When the good man was sick, you people introduce Yellow Fever Ticket to stop Nigerians from coming to monitor our Investments like GTB, Ecobank, Globacom etc. We are your masters, In Nigeria, you are our slave, in Ghana, you people are still our slaves. Ghana is just another colony of Nigeria. We own Ghana, we will come there, take over your economy and your black-skinned women. RIP Attah Mills.

patrick obayagbon has send his condolences to Ghanians "President Professor John Evans Atta Mills’ passing on is a mere ephemeral recumbent hibernation; an empyrean paradisiac rendezvous lies ahead. Heaven is the terminus. The ecclesiastic, executive and legislature and all Ghanaians at large have lost a solitaire. Any veritable verification of the verity of President Professor John Evans Atta Mills' demise? I am in a state of metagrabolised melancholia" https://www.nairaland.com/999130/patrick-obahiagbon-condolences-ghanaians- |

Biggyd2: Thank goodness! Stay in your country love, we don't need you here!you think any country can survive alone, since you people dont want to work we will end buying your entire country. lazy and jealous folks |
Chanchit: I think what the ghanian gov't are askin' for is very simple, thats how sane economy should be runned, cos i knw u can't work in the UK or USA to mention jst the two, without a work permit.... I think its a welcomed idea, ghanians always go abt doing their biz' in Nigeria freely, jst as if they r @ home, but if the ghanian gov't thinks that the familiarity should be removed, then the nigerian gov't should start asking for work permit from any foreigner, even the ECOWAS countries, i'm jst sorry for the other foreigners this ghanians would be dragging along...its not about work permit getting a work permit in Ghana is affordable their is no serious Nigerian that are doing busines that did not have those documents, they are just a xenophobic people who are very lazy. where in the world you will tell foreigners to invest $300,000 just to do retail business |
991: whatever!!! they can go to hell for all i care, as far as Africa (as a continent) is concerned, ghana is a house-boy to Nigeria. even their president knows that.you absolutely correct they are so lazy most especially their men, thats why they have time for jealousy |
