E-Passport Procurement Suspected of Tax Evasion and Foreign Exchange Misappropriation

Kathmandu. Further evidence has been found to confirm suspicions of tax evasion and foreign exchange misappropriation through offshore transactions in the procurement of electronic passports (e-passports).

The ownership structure of the Singapore-based company used for commission payments for the e-passport contract awarded to the French security technology company IDEMIA has further strengthened this evidence.
