Russian mafia cash in Switzerland tops $40 bln

Russian criminal money in Swiss banks has topped $40 billion and has
started to filter into the local economy, Swiss federal prosecutor
Carla del Ponte said Thursday. Russian mafia cash is suspected of
being behind acquisitions of property including restaurants, stores
and boutiques in Switzerland as part of a process of laundering
tainted money, del Ponte added. "We are worried by the penetration of
our country's economy by dirty Russian money. We have to be extremely
careful so it does not become a security threat to the Swiss state,"
she said at a meeting with journalists in Geneva. See
