A court declares the whistleblower in the case Luxleaks guilty of theft and violation of business secrets. Antoine Deltour leaked information detailing how multinationals shaved billions of euros from their taxes by using complex networks of Luxembourg subsidiaries The authorities found no infringement of law behind the divulged “tax rulings” - written interpretations of tax law issued by Luxembourg to companies and individuals. Some 343 companies, including Apple, Amazon, Ebay, Heinz, Pepsi, Ikea and Deutsche Bank, used them to reduce their tax bills to as little as one or two percent of their income.
