“Odd how this guy just plain disappeared. No one has seen him in what...seven months?”
So what was happening about 8-9 months ago?
Well...so far I can find two things that occurred. Toward the fall (Sep) his name started to come up in the news...leading back to the two Trump campaign guys who might have fallen for his ‘leaking’ to them.
The second thing is the purge of Saudi princes occur right around this period (maybe within a week). So he’s last seen in Rome, and according to folks who follow him....that’s it...the trail is cold.
I might go and suggest that he was some money-filter player into the Saudi empire banking system, and the princes....leading outsiders (maybe Russians, maybe the Iranians) in for money-laundering. If the princes were disestablished or arrested/detained....his entire network would have collapsed.
With his banking episode in the late 1980s...it seemed to be built for money-laundering. Then he got out of the personal running of this. My guess is that he had clients, and led to other countries where you could launder your cash and be clean.
I don’t think you will ever see this guy again.
Mifsud disappeared around seven months ago.
