I was just reading comments on JWServey, about a scandal involving the Bethel in the Czech Republic. I have been visiting apostate sites now for about 18 months, and I have never heard about this. Apparently there was dirty money been used in the financing of the bethel, and there was some other shadey goings on. Apparently it was quite commonly known amongst the R&F at the time. And it all ended up with it been in the papers, and then Brooklyn got involved. I'm just wanting to know more, as I cant seem to find any information either in here or on google. So information please e.g names, places, and links to documented proof, of what happened. Oh and eye witness accounts would also be good as well.

What do you know. I looked again and got an answer. Please see below
In my countrry - Czech republic:
Two brothers estabilished an investment fund (early 90´s , during post communist economical chaos), ripped off thousands of people of their money, using this stolen money purchased a building and donated it to czech bethel. Now it is used as a czech branch office. These brothers got very wealthy on this fraud, purchased a several real estate properties, one of them was used as a "pioneer school". Never were DF, for a long time they were an example of how a wealthy brother can be spiritualy mature...
No kidding, serious stuff. After all this was revealed on czech TV (2002) zone overseer came over and deleted 3 out of 4 branch coordinators.
