Kahrs in law: Investigations according to CUM-EX scandal!

After years of investigation in the complex CUM-Ex scandal, the procedures were hired against the former Hamburg member of the Bundestag Johannes Kahrs. The Cologne public prosecutor's office said that there was "a lack of sufficient suspicion" for an indictment and all evidence would have had no sustainable indications of misconduct. The case, which has been discussed publicly since 2020, affects the aid of tax evasion in relation to Hamburger Warburg Bank, in which Kahrs may have asserted his official functions, such as Welt.de reported .

Investigations without tangible detection

Kahrs, which laid down all political offices a few years ago, expressed great relief about the final cessation of the procedure. His lawyers emphasized that the investigation had not provided any evidence of misconduct and described the indictment as "tiger who jumped and landed as a bed inlet". The SPD had also come under pressure in this long process; Again and again the connection between party donations and the CUM-EX shops that brought massive tax failures to the state were discussed. For example, donations of around 45,500 euros through Warburg Bank to the Hamburg SPD, including 38,000 euros to Kahrs' at the time, saw the light of the public, which further confirmed the entanglement into political space, as Spiegel.de reported .
