Fraude et sacs de billets de banque : "Je prends l’option silence", déclare l’ancien sénateur du Gers

Fraude et sacs de billets de banque : "Je prends l’option silence", déclare l’ancien sénateur du Gers 21.02.2026

The trial of former Gers senator Aymeri de Montesquiou concluded in Paris on Thursday, where he faced accusations of concealing foreign accounts and significant tax fraud totaling €450,000. At 83 years old, Montesquiou admitted to omitting these accounts in his declarations to the HATVP, claiming good faith and an intention to repatriate funds that French banks refused to accept. His lawyer explained that €700,000 from the sale of family paintings was held in a Swiss account. Montesquiou then transferred these funds to Dubai and, facing repatriation issues, resorted to a Lebanese intermediary, M. Chalhoub, to move the cash in sports bags between Dubai and Beirut in October 2015, which was then disguised as fictitious loans. The verdict is scheduled for May 7th.
