based law firm. he has and for us, the, the as convenience of reggie sauce. actually this is the 2 items i know very well. he's very efficient, is very discrete, least another member of samuel sins team is andrew oper, lensky charges accounted the commercial banker by his the best john, i know he's extreme street. i can hear you come to the right because the deal would involve samuelson becoming a director of the club and receiving a large fee which was 3 percent of the value with each member of his team would charge additional fees in names. the clubs he claims all for sale. if you want to buy the top 6. theres 2, you could buy today. unusual. so, but he wants 3, but i told them we can talk to phillip and i know general leave is the channel to talk to very well. and joe, this is the other major shell. billy says the chinese investors are prepared to spend up to a 150000000 pounds with a further 100000000 for investment. they were looking for a sleeping giant, a once great club

asking price for just under 90 percent of seville was $217000000.00. but darby had a key advantage for samuelson. i remember i told you i was with mel yesterday. he said he wanted me to sell the book. if it was garvey, who stayed with mel, bells totally confidential, ah, with samuelson provides a step by step guide that would allow convicted criminal and money laundry. mr. x to buy a football club. first, create an offshore account using a trust company. uses one that he claims he part owns this company i saw that he is trust company calling only deal with the company is before it was just a 100 pound careful of just a minute. the miller and they she to share or free share. so home with me, with, because it's held courtney court nominee shareholders can legally appoint nominees to hold shares for their benefit if they don't want the shares registered in their name. the nominees names are made public. the names of the real shareholders remain a secret place is, is the only share they share

he sends an itemized invoice from finsbury trust. the bill includes charges for providing corporate directors and nobody shareholders total $9400.00. and we just can't say who has a share hope that's all we'll say. i want to see this question, this is for worth it for i'm reading the folks with reading for a russian family or rich 25. but i certainly have concerns when you nothing about the the company behind the funding . we knew that temp sport investments as it was cold, was going to be set up in a registered into poto. why would that need to be registered to go to what i trying to hide when i get ready and something done that he was getting his father's money. roland martin, forest thing. garbage is, the russian owner of a huge pulp and paper company with the garbage senior force had a massive fortune from paper pulp. but we were also told that he wasn't involved with that. there was the obvious question of, well, where is the money coming from? that's it. so i got his father to pick the money. i don't. i didn't play a part. i clear that. that's it. they didn't know. but antonio in garbage didn't have the funds to sustain the club affordable with their friends, or just the friends at this point just felt they've been taken for a ride. suddenly we turned into just another trap. in crisis, the russian owner sold the club. he left renting, holding a big bill that he'd run out with. no, no money left to pay it. oh, what is some use then discuss is another strategy that will give mister x, the green light to bind english football club. you picture a person who i for game separate cost for, for samuelson could help mister x obtain a european union passport and change his name. i had to say, this is your 2nd for me is it was no joke. i fish tanks oceans. so samuelson sends the friend a text message. ok, he, he's in the, on the secure g a. so he looks offer a menu of who have similar issues a space hedge of for russian who had to send from keith hunter is a former scotland yard detective who left the police in 1997. he formed risk management, the private investigation company, and now runs animus. it services include due diligence, personal profiling integrity,

former russian spy matted with polonium in a london restaurant, had worked for hunter as a source of information. he has, a hunter has received samuelson message and calls back i. i asked to ration prices of the investors, his home chinese. he was paid in china a chinese thing like that. and so he needs another possible i guess, as well. by now billy meets hunter to find out more about the services he provides. a billy's assistant this time is another undercover. a puerto, we called her alice, a previous hunter, explains what he does to help his clients. if he's got a competitor that he's really aggressive with, we offer often with whatever ammunition we've got this go off to find out who converts too soon. thanks. counsel could you chose those lifestyle because they go, mistress own so even if we could then there's their reputation. ready with warner kit klein's competitors telephone and opposed to come on, which was good and for, for the clients. we could potentially giver hunter's business activities resulted in a police inquiry in 2006 involving a corruption case in london's metropolitan police. he was not charged in 2012 hunter was arrested on suspicion of seeking to corrupt a police officer in the james bori fraud case. again, he was not charged. sometimes it's impossible. sometimes is sometimes you can't do these things. there will be times where you could use just the 3rd policies to, to help you get the information you've given to us, which conferences but again, these 3rd policies to do. but it would be something because people do, you know, the people do those things and i'm very happy to organize an introduction. how can you trust? because you don't trust my people will, will have relationships with people that can do things that we can't do in house hunters offering a range of services which fall on the spectrum of legality. so from one end, you have following people which is distasteful. what could verge on harassment through 2 things which are illegal breach state privacy laws, like accessing bank statements, accessing e mails and accessing telephone records. and while sounds talks about 3rd parties and distances himself from this activity. the way in which he talks implies that he has done this before on his 3rd, partially done this before as well. in part 2 are under cover reports is all up for the chance to buy a football
