India not keen on black money Swiss govt
http://www.mynews.in/fullstory.aspx?storyid=18496
 
8/5/2009 -
New Delhi: The Swiss Justice Department on Friday said that the Government of 
India was dragging its feet on the black money issue.

In a Headlines Today exclusive, the department also said the Indian government 
had submitted forged documents to Swiss authorities in the $ 8-billion Hassan 
Ali money laundering case in January 2007. Stud farm owner Hassan Ali had 
illegally transferred $ 6 billion to UBS accounts and came under the 
Enforcement Directorate''s radar.
Swiss government spokesman Folco Galli told Headlines Today that the Indian 
government was informed about the fake documents by Swiss authorities in 
January 2007 itself. Further, the Swiss claimed to have submitted certain 
queries to the Indian government in April 2007 but New Delhi has not bothered 
to file a reply even 24 months later.

Since the black money issue became a major election plank for the Lok Sabha 
polls, the Centre claimed in the Supreme Court that it has been doing what it 
can to bring back the black money stashed in Swiss banks. The Centre's 
affidavit in the SC however fails to mention that the Swiss have questioned the 
authenticity of the documents.

In fact, the Swiss spokesman's answer seems to suggest there has been little or 
no action from the government's side for the last two years in seriously 
pursuing the probe against Hassan Ali Khan.

(Why Government of India was silent on this issue for Two Years? Milap Choraria)
The last sentence in the response of the Swiss is telling. Galli says, "India 
makes only few requests per year to Switzerland for legal aid in tracking down 
black money."

Given the black economy is considered much bigger than the Indian economy, the 
UPA government has a lot to answer for.
 
The Centre has been claiming that Swiss domestic laws don't allow them to 
access their bank accounts


TRUTH SHALL ALWAYS PREVAIL
