The  UK press/media don't appear to have picked this up yet.

Funny that, I thought. I was just saying, funny that, how the media haven't reported this news. Especially the local media, the ones based in Blackburn. You'd have thought they'd have been all over it. Especially the comments pages of the local paper, you know the ones, those ones after the articles. I thought, that's funny. I'd have thought they'd have picked up on this. But no. Funny that. Funny peculiar, not funny ha ha. Normally they've bang on the money those lads, specially the press boys.

Mind you, they're doing a regular "feature" on "fake" news, the Lancashire Telegraph that is. I thought that's funny, for a paper that prints propaganda and no bloody news. How funny! Like that Trump bloke, how strange. 

Proper let down that lot. Funny that. I'll buy it tomorrow though, it'll be the front page I'd imagine.

'The operations were planned after the investigation units got suspicious about the movements of huge cash and other illegal transactions leading to tax evasion by the company'

In swag bags marked 'Rhodes cash' 'Hanley cash' etc

Can someone confirm my understanding of this. 

In November 2016 the Indian government "demonetised" certain large value bank notes? I haven't encountered this concept before.

https://www.google.co.uk/search?rlz=1CDGOYI_enGB622GB622&hl=en-GB&ei=HpsWWd7RA6bcgAaV-46IAw&q=demonetisation+in+india&oq=demonetisation&gs_l=mobile-gws-serp.1.0.0i71k1l5.0.0.0.9819.1.1.0.0.0.0.0.0..0.0....0...1..64.mobile-gws-serp..1.0.0.5uuZLKisOLQ

I presume those bank notes immediately cease to be legal tender? The assumption is Venky's have been trading in cash to avoid tax. Faced with their notes suddenly becoming worthless Venky's began moving large amounts of cash around, presumably in to bank accounts, so it would retain its' value?

Pre demonetisation much of Indian business was cash based. Physical notes.

Certain Rupee notes were taken out of circulation and cash holdings of these notes had to be banked to legitimise the money by bringing it into the banking system.

The expectation being that paying tax would become less of a optional activity.

I imagine this created huge difficulties for those holding huge amounts of currency which as soon as its banked can be assessed etc etc.

Which doesn't explain why anyone would retain old currency.

I therefore imagine that the old ways are still operating but now with newer currency notes. Old habits die hard.

In a bleary eyed state I read 'demonetised' as demonised. Somehow I thought this more appropriate.

One of the biggest raids in recent times according to that. If the Indian authorities are starting to get tough on tax, hopefully they make a proper example out of Venky's. Even though it (probably) doesn't affect Rovers, I still want nothing but bad things to happen to them.

Was it mentioned on here before that HMRC may have been looking at venkys? Could that have been correct then, they do work with foreign countries

These idiots are super rich, they'll lace a few palms with silver and this will blow over.

All that said I'm happy that 3 stooges won't have slept well last night, and probably won't for a while longer yet. I'm a firm believer in if you treat people badly, bad things will eventually come your way.

Hope you're listening, you know who you are :angry:

It may well affect Rovers all this. It was reported last week that Tony Mowbray was due to fly over to India, to meet with them and discuss the plan for next season. With the historic reluctance to even acknowledge anyone connected with Rovers, they are hardly going to suddenly want to discuss us, with all this going on? Given the £10m black hole for next season, this may well mean the rumoured none payments, may become more than just rumours and ,at well filter down to staff an players not being paid. If that does happen, I would hope the football authorities step in. If this turns out to be as big as it looks initially, how will the FA, football league ETC look, when we press home, how they chose to ignore the fans concerns.

Around 3 weeks ago a poster on this site E Mailed and posted a letter and documents to David Newton the head of integrity at the FA. This letter and documents, was a thorough breakdown of all the wrong doing at BRFC. So far this has been met with a wall of silence. Can this be ignored for much longer?
