ICIJ leaked the Panama Papers

The Panama Papers were leaked by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ) in 2016. Then the world came to know how rich people invest their black money in tax havens like Panama. Now the documents of the Pandora Papers investigation have started coming out regarding Panama itself. These have also been prepared by ICIJ.

 

Panama's reputation under fire again

The Central American country of Panama is counted among the tax haven countries. Here rich people can get citizenship by paying money. The rules and regulations of investment are very simple. The names of the rich of many countries of the world including India were revealed in the Panama Papers leak.

 

The government of Panama had issued a letter

The Panamanian government feared that the Pandora Papers could seriously damage its image in the world. This is the reason why he had issued an official letter to ICIJ through a legal firm not to issue the paper. The letter said the release of the documents would create a false impression about Panama.

 

How was the investigation done?

ICIJ said on social media that they have examined 120 million documents worldwide. 600 journalists from 117 countries have participated in the investigation.

 

What was the Panama Papers Leak Scandal

This was part of an investigation into foreign leaks and an effort to trace the people behind the nearly 3.2 lakh foreign companies and trusts linked to it. This confidential information gathered from the data center of Panamanian law firm Mossack Fonseca was discussed as 'Panama Papers'. Data of more than 1.15 crore files of Mossack Fonseca was leaked. Then the information was given from 1977 to the end of 2015.
