Qviberg prosecuted by the HQ crash – Swedish newspaper Svenska Dagbladet

On Friday morning left EBM’s chief prosecutor Martin Tidén a 86-page lawsuit against five people after the crash in HQ Bank.

– I have indicted these five persons, three for aggravated accounting offenses, four rough racketeering and one person for complicity to aggravated scam, says Martin Ages, chief prosecutor at the Economic Crimes Bureau, to SvD Business.

Why begs you prosecution?

– I think I need this indictment will lead to a conviction. Now, the prosecution entered, then the district court shall handle it. Eventually it should be a main hearing.

– HQ ran a business when it comes to proprietary trading in options. When you do this, follow international regulations. It has not HQ done. Then one can not assess business events in the books, explains Martin the time.

SvD Business has talked with Mats Qviberg, referring to Twitter, which has chosen to put out a press release on Twitter, in which he describes his surprise at the indictment.

“It is with great surprise Mats Qviberg received notice of the prosecution and his view that the prosecution is unwarranted,” reads the press release.

“In addition to Mats Qviberg is safe that the indictment be dismissed, He has instructed its advisors to evaluate countermeasures against Ekobrottsmyndighetem and Chief Prosecutor Martin times “, it stands on.

Mats Qviberg lawyer Olle Kullinger’m surprised indictment .

– The missing prerequisites for a conviction. It is with some surprise to receive this beskdet. We thought the prosecution would come to the conclusion that there was no basis for a prosecution.

How do you see the EBM’s actions?

– It is our opinion that it is not conducted in a sufficiently good way. None of the suspects is heard on the allegations contained in the indictment. The details, as it stands today, has changed a lot since everyone was heard.
