AS EMBATTLED BANK OF SAINT LUCIA'S VITAL U.S. CORRESPONDENT BANKING RELATIONSHIP IS IN JEOPARDY OF CANCELLATION DUE TO THE RICO CASE ALLEGATIONS, DEPUTY MD LYNDON ARNOLD PARTIES LARGE AT THE PARIS OLYMPICS


LYNDON ARNOLD, who as the Deputy Managing Director for Operations at the BANK OF SAINT LUCIA, one of the financial institutions alleged to be liable in the American CBI RICO case, and who is ultimately responsible for the bank's Anti-Money Laundering Compliance, has been enjoying ultra-luxury accomodations and premium box seating at this week's Paris Olympics. His personal companion, and likely financial benefactor for the holiday, is St. Lucian attorney and main CIP agent THADDEUS ANTOINE, who reportedly has received tens of millions of dollars from CARIBBEAN GALAXY in CBI passport sales kickbacks, a relationship that has raised questions of Conflict of Interest back home in St. Lucia. What is his relationship with Galaxy, and with Les Khan, the former B of A officer, ex-CIP head, and Galaxy CEO?

MD Arnold's bank, which accepted many millions of dollars in CIP application payments that were for an illegally reduced rate, which violated St. Lucian law, and failed to check and confirm that the legal price was paid, before accepting it, thus exposing its correspondent banking partner in the United States, Bank of America, to massive potential money laundering violations. We contacted him for comment, and he stated " I am not responsible for compliance at BOSL," although any working financial professional knows otherwise. The Buck stops with you, Mr. Managing Director. We call that compliance malpractice.

PHILIPPE MARTINEZ, OF MSR MEDIA, the lead plaintiff, has publicly stated that there will be several additional defendants added to the case shortly, and we have yet to learn which additional individuals from Saint Lucia implicated in the massive fraud, money laundering and corruption case they are, but Mr. Arnold and Mr. Antoine figure prominently in facilitating the billion dollar scheme that deprived the people of St. Lucia, the designated of the CBI program of funding that they are entitled do under the law.
