Princes William and Maxima of the Netherlands accused for tax evasion

Netherlands, June 8, 2011

The royal couple of the Netherlands was accused of conducting financial transactions in “tax havens”. Parliament condemned the fact.

Editors of the Dutch daily “De Volkstrant” said they had accessed secret information about the building pf a mansion in Mozambique since 2009.

According to the royal service of press, Maxima and William “bought their holiday home in Mozambique through bill payments in ‘diverse countries’”, which would be the tax havens (such as Jersey, owned by Great Britain).

The parliament of the Netherlands criticized “the moral of Orange when managing their money,” and the liberal Mark Rutte regretted “that secret information was published.”
