Greek singer Antonis Remos denies tax evasion allegations – The Greek Herald

The famous Greek singer Antonis Remos is being investigated by the public prosecutor’s office and the relevant authorities for alleged money laundering and tax evasion amounting to 1.5 million euros. Prototheme has reported.

In a statement by his lawyers Stathis Bakalis and Michalis Dimitrakopoulou, the Greek singer vehemently denied the allegations.

“I have been informed with regret and legitimate concern that the Anti-Money Laundering Authority has seized all my movable and immovable property due to allegations of tax evasion,” Remos said in the statement.

“My regret stems from the fact that a secret trial was illegally leaked to the media, thereby publicly exposing me. Furthermore, I was never asked by the authority to provide any statements or evidence to prove my innocence. I look forward to being summoned immediately to clarify the allegations against me and clear my name.”

The Financial Prosecutor’s Office opened the investigation about a month ago into the singer and a company he owns that has nothing to do with his professional activities. This followed the results of a lengthy investigation by the independent anti-money laundering authority.

The investigation began after the singer had submitted suspiciously low income tax returns over the past five years: despite his successful career in high society bars and clubs, he only declared 50,000 euros annually.

According to sources, the public prosecutor’s office will examine in its investigation whether third parties are involved in the case.
