NEWS

French Senator Gaston Flosse was to have been called before investigating judge Philippe Stelmach Friday, 18 September 2009, "to be heard and indicted," said an attorney in Tahiti, José Thurel.

On Tuesday, 15 September, the office of the Senate refused to rule on a new application for waiver of parliamentary immunity for Mr Flosse, 78 years.

Investigators have yet to find evidence of "corrupt dealings".

Flosse, a former President of French Polynesia, already cited in another investigation into the disappearance of journalist Jean-Pascal Couraud, is suspected of benefiting from 10 years of payments from former officials of the Office des Postes et Télécommunications (OPT ), and the 2H group, responsible for advertising the official phone directory of Polynesia.

An open letter to Oscar Manutahi Temaru

. . . Reasons to keep Maohi media > an open letter to President of French Polynesia, Oscar Manutahi Temaru, 15th December 2011  Kia orana Mr. President, Fourteen years ago today, a journalist named JPK disappeared from the island of Tahiti. To this day, top secret documents remain on file, linked with this journalist, but denied to investigatory judges by a national security commission.  Similar documents also link JPK with a separate investigation into Clearstream, the world's largest bank, a bank for banks. At no time since the era of nuclear testing have people French Polynesia come closer to the raw power of the French state, a savage mafia "melieu" involving intelligence services, judiciary and diplomacy.  Disappearance of Jean-Pascal Couraud on 15th December 1997 saw the loss of an opportunity to expose hidden back-channels of global finance.  A "secret, and secondary, banking system" as it was descri

. . . HOME JPK Update takes today's headlines from leading news sites, most in French, just a few in English, about a Tahiti scandal that started out as an allegation of assassination and continues, to this day, to ensnare a widening ring of global figures. Most significant, former French president Jacques Chirac, alleged to have held roughly US$70 million inside a Tokyo bank set up by the family of a protege, former president of French Polynesia, Gaston Flosse. Disgraced United States investor Bernard Madoff - accused of spiriting away US$50 billion, the biggest fraud in court history - is another well known name emerging in links with Clearstream, a clearing bank. A kind of bank-for-banks, Clearstream officially acts exclusively as an independent check on transactions between banks. Allegations emerging in 2001 saw Clearstream accused of opening secret accounts for some of the world's biggest banks, as well as for private individuals and other "non-banks." Jean-Pasc

clearstream answers remain unanswered

. . . Lots of questions, too little information about this important story. Don't be fooled by the "false list of false bank accounts" smokescreen, either. There are two lists. One real. One false. Guess which one the English media are focusing on? . . . in reference to: (10/15/2001) Secret Banking System Welcomes Terrorist As Well As Corporate Money ( view on Google Sidewiki )
