“Disgraced former French budget minister Jerome Cahuzac lied to a Swiss bank when it accepted his assertion that funds paid into his account had been declared to tax authorities, a newspaper report said Saturday. The Zurich-based Tages Anzeiger said the politician presented a ‘bogus tax certificate’ to the Julius Baer bank. Cahuzac — the minister responsible for cracking down on tax evasion until he resigned in mid-March — was charged Tuesday with ‘laundering the proceeds of tax fraud’ after he admitted to having the foreign bank account, following weeks of denials.”
