An investigation into suspected tax evasion targeted four former partners at Belfast accountancy firm KPMG in a publicity stunt, a court has been told.

HM Revenue and Customs misled judges into granting warrants to search the men’s homes and offices it was alleged.

The claims were made as Eamonn Donaghy, Jon D’Arcy, Paul Hollway and Arthur O’Brien won permission to challenge the legality of the permits.

They were arrested in November but have not been charged with any wrongdoing.

At the time, KPMG said it was co-operating with the investigation and had placed the men on “administrative leave”.

    Clearly designed to give the appearance of being tough on tax evasion, while lacking any integrity.
    Which particular regime crime were they using that little caper to distract us from?

    Part of the Elites way of life one rule for us…. none for them. Hence no bankers were bought to justice for destroying the world financial system. This little issue will be lost under the carpet.
