MARKETWATCH: DOJ makes first criminal charges in Enron case June 27,2002 18:59 ET The Justice Department on Thursday charged three former British bankers with wire fraud in a $7.3 million scheme involving one of Enron's dubious limited partnerships. It's the first criminal charges brought by the government in the case against the one-time energy giant. In a lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Houston, the Justice Department's Enron Task Force alleges three former employees of National Westminster Bank siponed the funds that rightfully belonged to the bank. "This complaint shows that we intend to address the conduct not only of Enron but also of those who capitalized on Enron's willingness to enter into accounting-driven transactions that lacked business purpose and served instead merely to enrich those involved," said Leslie R. Caldwell, director of the Enron Task Force.
