Exhibition #161

This conversation takes place between Paul and agent Mar on 9 January 2003. On 16 October 2002, Paul gave a presentation to Spanish Intelligence agents on the complexities of offshore structures and money laundering. During this conversation, Paul is enquiring about the whereabouts of Fernando, or agent Munoz. It is clear from the conversation that Paul has met a number of female agents when he refers to Sonsalis in error, before realising he is speaking with agent Mar. The conversation is friendly with Paul and Mar exchanging pleasantries during which Mar reminds Paul that she was the translator when Paul gave his presentation.

Exhibit #150


This conversation takes place between Paul and agent Munoz on 1 September 2001. Normally, prosecution witnesses provide a statement then are called to give testimony at trial. Sometimes witnesses provide more than one statement, but they do not form any relationship with agents from the prosecuting authority. This tape recording demonstrates how the relationship between Paul and agents Munoz and Esteban developed over a period of time.

Paul phoned agent Munoz to inform him he is going on holiday to St Lucia and how long he will be away. Munoz soon requests intelligence on a Russian associate of Mohamed Derbah, which was outside the parameters of Paul’s position as a prosecution witness. By asking Paul to hand over information on potential Russian mafia members, Munoz further places Paul at risk.
