Airbus funds likely source of Schreiber's 'Britan' account: witness

[daleo]

A forensic accountant called in to investigate the business dealings between Brian Mulroney and Karlheinz Schreiber testified that there's a "strong inference" the money alleged to have been paid to the former prime minister came from Airbus funds.

Steven Whitla, an accountant with Navigant Consulting, said the account known as Britan, which Schreiber has claimed he used to pay Mulroney $300,000 in cash payments, was funded by a Frankfurt account.

In regards to the source of funds for the Frankfurt account, Whitla said: "Our analysis of the facts support a strong inference that the original source of monies withdrawn by Mr. Schreiber from the ‘Britan' account came in large part from funds received from Airbus."
