Stars of High Street, City and property world face fraud probe
Britain's biggest ever fraud inquiry was under way last night following the arrest of two of the City’s most prominent high-rollers.
Global investment banks and even financial watchdogs are expected to be probed in the investigation into the credit crunch collapse of Icelandic bank Kaupthing.
A senior Tory donor, at least one multi-millionaire retailer and leading luxury property developers may also be dragged into the net.
