Among the million of documents of Mossack Fonseca, the giant “offshore”
scandal, appears the name of Efraim Diveroli, according to the American
“Miami Herald”, which is notorious in Albania.
Diveroli was mentioned during the Gerdec tragedy, when he received a huge contract from Pentagon to buy ammunition from Albania and sell them to Americans in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The newspaper explains the connection of Diveroli with AEY, a Swiss trafficker and an offshore company in Cyprus. The newspaper says there is another actor in this drama, a Cypriot named charalambos “Pambos” Fellas”, whose names appears on the documents obtained by Miami Herald and the consortium of international journalists.
Fellas, leader of a company named “Edvin Ltd”, supplied the Miami leaders and it appeared to be the director of 30 offshore companies established by Mossack Fonseca from 2002 to 2007.
All companies were based in Seychelles, a fiscal paradise near the Indian Ocean. There are no data that Edvin Ltd was created by Mossack Fonseca, but the role of Fellas in the scandal illustrates the way how the anonymous ownership of companies could bring other violations.
The real owner of the company was a Siwss arm trafficker, Heinrich Thomet, placed in the black list of the US government for people suspected of arm traffickers. Thomet, says the newspaper, used “Edvin Ltd” to sell weapons. He had met Diveroli in a gun fair in Las Vegas, when it appears that they were involved in the smuggling game.
“Herald” claims that the Pentagon contract won by Diveroli and his partner, David Packouz, through the AEY firm, came thanks to the Swiss Thomet and his company in Cyprus.
