Aeroflot Refuses Co-operation With Swiss Probe
Meanwhile, in another part of the forest, the Swiss enquiries into the affairs of several companies allegedly linked to money-laundering activities that surfaced during the Bank of New York affair hit a roadblock when Aeroflot refused to co-operate with (another) PricewaterhouseCoopers investigation, this time into the affairs of Forus, a Russian-owned Swiss company accused of assisting Aeroflot with allegedly improper transactions. Forus said it would continue with the PwC study even without Aeroflot's co-operation. Like the other Swiss companies under investigation, Forus's bank accounts have been frozen. .
