Scandal about Tyrolean entrepreneurs: Benko in custody because of suspicion of fraud!

Wien, Österreich - The 47-year-old Tyrolean entrepreneur René Benko has been in the Vienna-Josefstadt prison since his arrest on January 23. The renowned investor, who is known in the real estate industry through his investments, faces serious allegations by the Economic and Corruption Prosecutor's Office (WKStA). As vienna.at , he is accused of infidelity and fraudulent Krida, which could result in up to ten years in prison. It is believed that Benko tried to disguise and shift assets during ongoing bankruptcy proceedings.

The WKStA has been investigating Benko for a long time, which she identified as a "factual ruler and beneficial authorized" of Laura Privat Foundation. There are numerous evidence in the room that support investors deception and damage to creditors. Despite the serious allegations, Benko remains in custody until at least at least at the end of February, as also reports tirol.orf.at . The situation remains tense and the investigation continues while the court will decide on the further whereabouts of the entrepreneur.
