HMRC is looking to prosecute

Posted on

The Sunday Mirror has reported that:

Four celebrities at the heart of a £1billion Inland Revenue probe have been targeted in the biggest-ever inquiry into secret bank accounts.

The four - a male actor, a male TV presenter, a TV actress and a leading football manager - are all said to be household names.

They are among 100,000 suspected tax cheats under scrutiny. Others are said to be members of some of Britain's wealthiest families.

Anyone convicted of tax evasion faces a jail sentence.

The inquiry has centred on hidden bank accounts in Bermuda, Panama, Andorra, Hong Kong, Liechtenstein, Singapore and the West Indies.

Clearly HMRC has had enough of PWC's Steve Camm and his call for HMRC to back off this investigation so that tax evaders can use offshore with impunity. Quite right.
