Actor Leonardo DiCaprio testifies in fraud case Guard.
The main suspect in the case was businessman Joe Low, who was accused of orchestrating an international money laundering scam. Law enforcement insists Lowe’s actions led to billions of dollars being stolen from Malaysian investment fund 1MDB. Rapper Pras Michel became the entrepreneur’s accomplice—possibly playing an intermediary role in Lowe’s fraud scheme.
“Prosecution authorities allege that between June and November 2012, Lowe ordered more than $21.6 million to transfer to Michel from foreign entities to transfer money for the 2012 presidential election,” the investigative documents said.
According to the agency, the businessman gave DiCaprio many gifts, organized parties with him in different countries of the world and financed the movie “The Wolf of Wall Street” with his participation. As DiCaprio told FBI agents, he met Lowe at a nightclub. The actor also called him “the Mozart of business.”
