Raid on Le Pen to tax fraud

The French police and financial investigators on Wednesday raided offices and the residence of the French far-right politician Jean-Marie Le Pen (87).

Le Pen was at the time of the invasion abroad. He denied to Reuters that he has done something wrong. A French website had reported that Le Pen has a secret account in Switzerland that he manages through a business associate. " I am stunned and furious. I do not see what this raid justifies ", said the controversial politician, who earlier this year was put out of his own party.
