The party goes on
Yesterday, the UK media made much of the fact that Vincent Tchenguiz was going to host a party tonight on his yacht Veni Vidi Vici in Cannes, on the occasion of a property conference there. The plans were up in the air when Tchenguiz was arrested and brought in for questioning with the Serious Fraud Office. But today the party is still on, Tchenguiz is off to Cannes now, sources close to Tchenguiz inform Icelog. Appropriate to the yacht’s name he will go and see – but who wins in the SFO investigation is still unclear.
For others, the questioning in Iceland is still going on, as it is here in London. As to possible charges, there might go weeks, months and years. However, SFO is now trying to be snappier and quicker so who knows.
According to the FT 11.3. the party went on – but without the host. Vincent Tchenguiz did indeed not leave London.
