Bernard Tew et al v. MCML Ltd.: Complaint (‘European Tax Refund Fraud’)

Complaint alleging “a diabolical scheme orchestrated by ED&F to take advantage of the tax-exempt status in foreign countries of pension plans managed by Tew, including Bluegrass, to make fake securities trades, issue fake tax vouchers to a host of European governments, and steal hundreds of millions of dollars in tax refunds, all the while falsely assuring Tew that it was engaged in a legal trading strategy for his benefit, and then pinning the whole thing on Tew as soon as the tax authorities sought to recover their money” in Bernard V. Tew, individually and as Trustee on behalf of Bluegrass Retirement Group Trust, and Bluegrass Retirement Group Trust v. MCML Limited, formerly ED&F Man Capital Markets, Ltd., of London, England, at the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky.
