After OneCoin Trial Cooperator Gilbert Armenta Registers A New Company Linked to JSC Capital Bank

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon
BBC - Guardian UK - Honduras - The Source

SDNY COURTHOUSE, Dec 1 – As Inner City Press covered the OneCoin trial this month, a number of names of indicted co-conspirators emerged on which we are now following up.

  One of them was Amer Abdulaziz Salman, see below. There was Gilbert Armenta, who because a cooperator with the US Attorney for the SDNY and recorded Ruja Ignatova. Inner City Press has repeatedly asked the US Attorney's Office for more information; it continues to withhold even the exhibits it flashed on the screen at trial. Inner City Press has had to file a FOIA request.

Now we can report this: the US Attorney's Office has allowed money launderer Gilbert Armenta to remain at large and still incorporating companies as of July 2019, records found by Inner City Press (even pending the FOIA response) show.

  ESOL B.V. LLC was incorporated on July 8, 2019; the manager is Gilbert Armenta and the agent is Giselle Valentin, both of 500 E. Broward Boulevard, PH 2, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33394. See here. And here.

   Armenta's Tblisi, Georgia-based money laundering bank JSC Capital Bank had as its parent a company of exactly this name. See KPMG review of Georgia banking sector here. More on Armenta's ongoing companies on Patreon here.

  Some might ask, is the US Attorney's Office allowing its cooperator to keep on money laundering? Or looking the other way while whatever cooperation agreement exists is openly violated? The still-withheld exhibits and others documents, and now FOIA response, should show more. The case is US v. Scott, et al., 17-cr-630 (Ramos). Watch this site.
