Edmond de Rothschild Paris offices raided in Epstein-linked probe into diplomat
French investigators searched the Paris offices of Swiss bank Edmond de Rothschild as part of an fact-finding process into alleged graft involving a French diplomat named in documents linked to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, prosecutors stated on Tuesday.
The name of Fabrice Aidan , a middle-ranking French diplomat who was seconded to the United Nations from 2006 to 2013 and later worked at the bank, appeared in more than 200 documents released by the US Fairness Division.
These include emails he is alleged to have sent Epstein between 2010 and 2016 from his personal and UN accounts.
Some of the emails reviewed by Reuters show the transfer of UN Global protection body briefings and other confidential documents to Epstein during that period.
Aidan has refuted wrongdoing, and his lawyer did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
The French External Government department stated it had completed an administrative probe, performing about 30 interviews. The government department stated all current and former staff members who had been summoned to its probe had cooperated, adding that it was available to judicial representatives and was considering disciplinary proceedings.
