Art dynasty heir Wildenstein cleared of tax fraud in Paris

PARIS, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 12th Jan, 2017 ) : The Franco-American patriarch of the Wildenstein art-dealing dynasty was on Thursday cleared by a Paris court of hiding millions of Euros in paintings and properties from the taxman.

The presiding judge said there was a "clear attempt" by Guy Wildenstein and seven co-defendants to conceal assets from tax authorities but cleared them owing to shortcomings in the investigation and in French legislation on tax fraud.
