    Default Iceland has hired an ex-cop to hunt down bankers that wrecked its economy


    Hauksson's job description:

    "On one hand, we have to investigate all suspicion of fraud and offences committed before 2009, on the other hand, we bring the lawsuits against the suspects to court ourselves," Hauksson explains. This is a 'totally new' method which allows the investigators to "follow the case" and the judicial system to "know the cases like the back of their hand". This is indispensable in order "to compete with the well-prepared defence attorneys."

    He will track you down even if you've fled abroad:

    "Searches continue and the team pursues its investigations abroad in the foreign subsidiaries of the Icelandic banks and includes questioning foreigners. We enjoy full international cooperation."

    To ease the prosecutor's job, the government modified the laws on banking secrecy. "Today, we have access to all information with no objections possible," claims Olafur Hauksson. Suspected bank fraud, swindles, professional identity theft, misuse of funds, the types of investigations are wide-ranging and the three – soon to be four – interview rooms are never empty. The prosecutor says he is currently working on "a hundred priority cases".

    Good to see a country that got the guts to prosecute those fraudsters.

    In Rule Britania they get millions of pounds in bonuses.

    Good to see our small neighbour do right.

    Hiring assassins is a better idea. Trials cost money and we already know they are as guilty as sin.



    Wake up and smell the coffee.
