Xbiex, there is a safe in which certain files are kept, and also particular documents marked for extreme secrecy. The safe used to be in the bank office, but for some reason was moved to the kitchen. In this safe, documents are held pertaining to Russian clients of the bank, and to Maltese PEP, including John Dalli, consultant to Prime Minister Muscat, and Keith Schembri, the Prime Minister?s chief of staff, both of whom have accounts with the bank in their own personal names. Dalli?s account is not used much, but the Prime Minister?s chief of staff uses his regularly and his statements show highly suspicious transactions involving people in Azerbaijan. This bank account is separate to the one held in the name of his once-secret Panama company, Tillgate Inc. The safe in the kitchen at Pilatus Bank also contains the documents that answer the question which the whole of Malta has been asking this past year: who owns Egrant Inc, the third company Brian Tonna set up in Panama, for somebody so important that the name had to be given over Skype, rather than in an email as it was for Konrad Mizzi and Keith Schembri. Those documents in the Pilatus Bank kitchen-safe are declarations of trust which show that shares in Egrant Inc are held by Mossack Fonseca nominees for ?Mrs Michelle Muscat?. The declarations of trust were provided to the bank by Brian Tonna, as a prerequisite for opening an account for Egrant Inc, for which the identity of the ultimate beneficial owner is required. Muscat?s name is also given on another document held in the bank?s safe: the account opening form for Egrant Inc. These documents have been scanned and uploaded to the cloud, for security purposes, by third parties so that they cannot be destroyed by the bank. 1404 Dan l-artiklu kien pre?edut minn iehor li kien intitolat million in single transaction from Azerbaijan?owned company to Egmnt Inc. It-test ta? dan l?artiklu huwa s-segwenti million in single transaction from Azerbaijan-owned company to Egrant Inc In March last year, Al Sahra FZCO a company incorporated in Dubai?s free zone made a single payment transaction of million to Egrant Inc, a company incorporated in Panama in 2013. The transaction, which was described as a ?loan payment?, was made from Al Sahra?s account at Pilatus Bank in Malta, to an account which Egrant Inc holds with a bank in Dubai. This was not the only ?loan payment? which Egrant Inc received from Al Sahra FZCO, but it was the largest single transaction. Other ?loan payments? were of around each and made twice a week over several weeks in January, February and March last year. The bank account opening form for Al Sahra FZCO at Pilatus Bank gives Leyla Aliyeva, daughter of Ilham Aliyev, ruler of Azerbaijan, as the ultimate beneficial owner of the company. Payment instructions for A1 Sahra were given by arnoush Farsian. Egrant Inc also has an account at Pilatus Bank in Malta, but the money was significantly not paid into that account. It was moved out of the country. The transaction was so large and raised so many questions that Pilatus Bank?s US correspondent bank (it was a dollar transaction, and at the time the bank had two US correspondent banks) stopped it. After several days of negotiations, it went through. 1405 Until the payment was released, an employee at Nexia BT which made the arrangements to set up Egrant Inc in Panama with Mossack Fonseca in 2013 rang Pilatus Bank several times a day, every day, to check on progress and to chase it up. This website has the name of the employee, who left Nexia ET for other employment when the Panama Papers scandal broke worldwide the following month, but has not spoken to him. The Nexia BT employee who followed up on this banking transaction is the same one who submitted to Pilatus Bank the bank account opening forms for Egrant Inc and for Tillgate Inc (UBO Keith Schembri) and Hearnville Inc (UBO Konrad Mizzi), which also have accounts at Pilatus Bank in Malta.
