WASHINGTON (Reuters) - client a HSBC India living in Wisconsin, was charged Tuesday to hide more than 8.7 million in accounts abroad and the filing of false tax returns for the U.S., said the Ministry of Justice.
Arvind Ahuja, a neurosurgeon and American citizen, was charged with four counts of hide the accounts, held $ 8.7 million in 2009, and four counts of false tax returns, who failed to declare over $ 1.2 million dollars in deposit interest income.
In April, the Justice Department said HSBC Holdings Plc (HSBA.)(L) (HBC).(N) unit in India helped U.S. taxpayers stash of funds abroad through their India unit, and the Department served a so-called John Doe summons on the shore to provide customer U.S. names.
Others HSBC India pleaded guilty to tax evasion have many clients of UBS AG.
The case is USA v Arvind Ahuja, no. 11-RC-135, in District Court for the District of eastern Wisconsin.
