The problem is that even the deceased's connection to the funds has not been clarified or proven until now, even after the end of the legal proceedings.
The plaintiff claimed that the money came from the store that the deceased managed, but that this was a mere claim since she herself claimed that she did not know about them during the deceased's lifetime and that she was not involved in the management of the store that he owned, and that she did not even bring any evidence whatsoever in relation to the store's revenues so that it would be proven that they allowed the generation of such profits or in relation to the transfer of the funds from the deceased abroad, and even confirmed that she had no knowledge of the source of the funds (for example, sections 35.4, 40, 58 and 61 of the affidavit; p. 28 of the transcript, lines 17-21; p. 29, lines 8-9 and more), in other words, the claim that the deceased's store money is at best a hypothesis without any real basis, let alone more.
- The only evidence provided by the plaintiff in relation to the amount of money in question was a document pretending to be a form signed in Geneva of the Singapore branch of a Swiss bank called Credit Agricole isuissei sa (Exhibit 13 of its exhibits), without proving whether it was indeed an authentic document of that bank.
According to the aforementioned document, it seems, prima facie, that an account was opened in the Singapore branch of the bank in the name of a company that is ostensibly registered in Panama under the name of Bruno Trading sa, with the name of the deceased appearing in the body of the form as an authorized signatory as well as as the person who signed the form on behalf of the Panamanian company, even though he is presented there as an accountant (CPA) and it was never claimed that there was one.
It should be emphasized that it appears from the document at most that this is a case, again prima facie only, an authorized signatory in the bank account of the Panamanian company, but this does not indicate the nature of the deceased's connection to that company.
