Royal Gibraltar Police has asked for help from Britain's Serious Fraud Office (SFO) to help investigate the alleged multi-million pound fraud at Marrache & Co. A team including a case manager and a forensic accountant is expected to arrive on the Rock next month. The RGP's decision to call in the SFO stems from complications in unravelling the case in preparation for prosecution, and the agency's considerable resources and expertise.>
While the Serious Fraud Office is no longer part of the British police, it is nevertheless a government agency that investigates and prosecutes complex fraud and corruption in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Working closely with law enforcement agencies, it has teams of specialists that include forensic accountants, investigators, lawyers and IT experts in its ranks and works closely with law enforcement agencies.
