More than 70 politicians, academics, union heads and charity leaders around the world have come out in opposition to the decision by Luxembourg to prosecute the 28-year-old accountant accused of sparking the LuxLeaks tax scandal... In an open letter to prosecutors in the Grand Duchy, critics of the decision to prosecute Deltour argued that the leak had been “manifestly in the public interest, helping to expose the industrial scale on which Luxembourg has sanctioned aggressive tax avoidance schemes, draining huge sums from public coffers beyond its borders”.. The charges stem from an official complaint brought by [PricewaterhouseCoopers]. He could face jail and a heavy fine.
