Former Heinz-Christian Strache assistant has made a factual confession in the spending case surrounding the former FPÖ chief. The explosive details.
For tax reasons, the former head of the FPÖ and former Vice Chancellor Heinz-Christian Strache is said to have charged private expenses to his former FPÖ party. That stems from a statement by Strache’s former assistant, who is also listed as a suspect in the spending case and is now said to have made a factual confession in front of investigators, according to the APA. This is based on the order to open Strache’s account, it is said.
It is not clear if Strache’s account has already been opened; According to the APA, this account cannot be denied or confirmed with the new HC Strache team. The Public Ministry, in turn, said that the process was pending, and the Federal Criminal Police said that the total damage was 580,832.82 euros. Strache’s assistant was responsible for “essentially confessing within the meaning of the prosecution” in all four interrogations, per protocol.
Strache is burdened not only by his former assistant, but also by two former bodyguards in the expense case. The accusation: The former head of the FPÖ is said to have settled the private expenses with false invoices through the FPÖ. Apparently Strache’s former assistant also named a text message that Strache is said to have addressed to her. It instructed her to “write immediately on all ‘politically motivated’ bills.”
As an afterthought, Strache should “for tax reasons!” the wizard keyed in at that time. Strache himself has thus far denied all allegations and is also calm about opening the account. Recently, however, Strache and his wife Philippa were also heavily burdened by a cleaner in the case. The presumption of innocence applies to all of the above.
