In Zahlen
The São Paulo Asset Forfeiture Committee launched 'Operation Distrato' against a criminal organization suspected of evading taxes by selling fake ICMS (a type of value-added tax) credits. In line with search and seizure warrants, raids were conducted at numerous addresses.
As part of the investigation, the activities of an economic group, including the famous lawyer Nelson Wilians, were scrutinized. The research reveals that the suspects issued fake tax documents and created artificial tax credits using businesses with no operational infrastructure.
The suspects will be tried for selling these fake credits to small and medium-sized enterprises to unlawfully reduce their tax debts. The São Paulo Ministry of Finance has taken the records of over 850 suspicious companies under review and has already initiated criminal proceedings against 752 firms.
