BURTON: INVETIGATION INTO CERTAIN COMPAINES
President Mark Burton held a press conference today outside the Federal Congress building stating that a government investigation has been lunched into several big profit companies in Aloria. Burton stunned many of the reporters and the public with the announcement however; he gave detailed reasons of why the investigation has been launched and what they are currently looking for. He did not give the names of the companies stressing that he would not give them as if they did nothing wrong he does not want to affect their business.
“I received news from several of my top officials today that certain big profit companies in Aloria have been cheating on taxes, hiding money from the government not to pay the corporation tax, and the possibility of illegally using certain tax incentives. Due to this information I have fully launched a government investigation from my office directly with the Justice Ministry and Finance Ministry. The investigation will cover certain companies I have gotten tips about, I will not give the names out. We will be looking at tax returns for the last several years and requesting the complete financial records of these certain companies. If this true and they have done this I will make sure that any criminal charges are pressed and that they will suffer a consequence(s). This is an insult to the people of Aloria who pay their taxes” addressed Burton.
Burton also stated that he will make the government crack down on more people who have cheated on their tax returns and have lied and hidden money to not pay the equal amount of taxes they must. He said it is “un-honest to not pay your fair and full amount of taxes, and that we need to make sure these people are punished”.
Burton promised to release the names of the companies after the investigations are done and only if they show that they did things wrong. On weather if the companies refused to hand over complete financial records and cooperate with the investigation Burton said: “I will have a judge subpoena them if I need to”
