This week, very important facts about the Commerzbank credit line for Wirecard, which was never really terminated, were discussed in court, which have implications up to the Berlin U Committee and need to be examined in more detail.
Total mass media failure. ๐งต

After Commerzbank discovered the first money laundering transactions at Wirecard in Singapore in February 2019, Coba Compliance made a number of reports to public prosecutors, BaFin and also to the money laundering unit of ๐ฉ๐ช customs, the FIU.

A Commerzbank fraud specialist told the court this week that a report was prepared on 20.2.2019 on an initial 344 money laundering transactions exclusively at Wirecard in Singapore(!). This was presented to the Commerzbank Board of Managing Directors on April 3, 2019.

The Wirecard judge did not ask exactly when these first 344 money laundering transactions from WDI in Singapore were handed over to the Financial Intelligence Unit FIU of ๐ฉ๐ช customs by Commerzbank. More on this in a moment.

To shed light on Commerzbank's exact money laundering reports to the customs FIU, you have to go back about 3 years.
On June 8, 2021, the head of the FIU, Christof Schulte, was questioned in the Wirecard Committee.
Here is the Bundestag report:
bundestag.de/documents/text ...
The head of the FIU declared on 8.6.2021 in the Wirecard U Committee, the 344 money laundering reports - if they were delivered - were assessed differently than Commerzbank at the time and initially only "two reports were forwarded" to prosecutors and(!) the Bavarian State Criminal Police Office (LKA Bayern)

This was justified by the head of the FIU in 2021 in the Wirecard U committee with the fact that "it was not a matter of criminal relevance in ๐ฉ๐ช".
This has now been confirmed this week by statements made by the Coba witness in court.

The FIU itself is not a criminal prosecution authority, but "only" forwards them to precisely this authority.
An article in Manager-Magazin from 2020 explains that Commerzbank had already passed on relevant ML reports to the LKA Bavaria in 2019!

The FIU also informed BaFin. Meanwhile, some in the Berlin Wirecard U Committee were also busy blaming the FIU in order to deliberately remove responsibility from the LKA Bavaria and probably also the BKA.

The circumstances surrounding Commerzbank, FIU, BaFin and Wirecard have still not been clarified and resolved.
The background to this will be that taxpayer-funded public servants continue to do everything imaginable to remove their bodies from liability.
This with the help of the mass media.
In particular, the behavior of many mass media companies and their links with government officials should also be investigated in the Wirecard scandal.
For several weeks now, I have been recommending that criminal charges be filed in very blatant cases.
