168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tom Boonen (168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Omega Pharma - Quick-Step) is being investigated for tax evas🌺ion according to a report in Belgian newspaper .

According to the report, the case is currently in the hands of special tax investigators, who are looking into whether Boonen has overstepped the mark in terms of his "tax optimisation" - that b꧂eingt as a former resident of the well-known tax haven of Monaco, he allegedly did not declare enough of his income to Belgian authorities. Boonen resided in Monaco from September 2005 until early last year when he returned to Belgium.

Boonen's manager, Paul De Geyter did not respond to the newspaper's queries but Omega Pharma-Quick-Step boss Patrick Lefevere was able to ꦏconfirm that authorities had previously requested documents rega🎃rding Monaco-based cyclists from the team, including Boonen and Gert Steegmans.

"That happened in the aftermath of the tax case against Paolo Bettini," he explained.🐼 "But I remember that all documents are requested in 2009 and then I heard🌳 nothing more."

Bettini was acc🥀used of falsely claiming that his primary residence was in Monaco and was investigated by Italian authorities. Mario Cipoll🐽ini was ac🅺quitted of charges of tax fraud by the Cꩵourt of Appeal in Florence, reversing an earlier decision which could have seen him imprisoned for 22 months after he failed to declare his income to the Italian treasury.
