Belgian Police Search Homes of Ex-EU Commissioner Reynders in Lottery Money Laundering Probe
Dec 4, 2024, 07:05 AM
Belgian police have searched two residences and interrogated former European Commissioner for Justice Didier Reynders on suspicion of money laundering involving the Belgian National Lottery. The investigation alleges that Reynders may have laundered money through lottery tickets during his tenure as minister responsible until 2011. This action comes just days after Reynders left his position as EU Commissioner last Saturday. Media outlets across Europe have reported on the probe, noting that the European Commission was unaware of the investigation prior to the searches.
