Representatives of the Icelandic Tax Investigation Bureau searched the headquarters of Stodir Invest (formerly FL Group) today. The tax investigators took the decision in order to secure evidence for an investigation they are carrying out. At this stage, it is still possible the records taken will prove to the authorities that no tax irregularities occurred.
According to MBL.is sources, investigators took tax records from 2005 to 2007 from the offices on Sidumula in Reykjavik this afternoon.
Bryndis Kristjansdottir, head of the Tax Investigation Bureau, refused to comment on the reasons for the house search: “We have never given details of if we are investigating an issue or not (until it is finished)”. She would not confirm the news.
