ELEVEN supercars worth up to £5million have been seized from outside an African dictator’s Paris mansion as part of a foreign aid money-laundering investigation.
The vehicles – that included two Bugatti Veyrons, a Ferrari 599 GTO and a Maserati MC12 – are all registered to Teodoro Obiang Nguema, president of Equatorial Guinea.
He is one of numerous African heads of state who regularly receive vast handouts in foreign aid, including British cash via European funds.
Police swooped on his £15million mansion on the prestigious Avenue Foch close to the Arc de Triomphe this morning, piling all of the vehicles on to a car transporter. Full story...
