On December 21, 2021, the individual was accused of 26 counts of money laundering, according to a Munich prosecutor. He was allegedly involved in Marsalek's scheme to disperse £22 million ($25 million) in stolen Wirecard profits.
By March's end, the prosecution hopes to have Braun brought to justice. After serving 18 months in prison, the guy has reiterated his desire to prove his innocence while asserting that he was a victim of Marsalek.
He allegedly worked on a project alongside Marsalek and Rami El O, who is presently facing inquiry, and embezzled about £22 million worth of Wirecard assets.
"Intentional money laundering combined with exacerbation of fraud and wilful violations of accounting obligations" were the charges against Braun, according to the prosecution.
"The defendant has been accused of purchasing and renovating private real estate, as well as establishing and providing financial support for his family office in Switzerland," the prosecution emphasised.
The legal teams representing Marsalek and Braun have both declined to comment.
Singapore sued two persons in 2021, claiming they had tampered with paperwork representing Wirecard's hundreds of millions of euros in bank accounts.
It was discovered that the aforesaid documents were part of a scam where Wirecard asserts that a partnership with an unknown payment processing company based in Singapore, Dubai, and the Philippines accounts for half of its revenue.
