PARIS — France and Germany have launched a series of raids on the offices and homes of
bank officials and their wealthy customers in an ongoing inquiry aimed at cracking down
on those who evade taxes by using Swiss banks.
On Tuesday, German police searched the homes of an unspecified number of Credit Suisse
bank customers suspected of tax evasion. In France, detectives raided the offices of Swiss
banking and finance house UBS in three major cities: Lyon, Bordeaux and Strasbourg.
Officials in both countries refused to say whether the raids were coordinated or
coincidental.
Investors from France, Germany and Britain represent the largest market in Europe for
Swiss private banks. Britain and Germany have signed deals with Switzerland aimed at
legalizing undeclared assets in Swiss banks by introducing a withholding tax. France has
refused to sign such agreements, preferring instead to pursue criminal investigations.

hogares de los funcionarios del banco y sus clientes adinerados en una investigación en
curso destinada a tomar medidas enérgicas contra los que evaden impuestos mediante el
uso de los bancos suizos.
WASHINGTON — The Navy is rushing tiny underwater drones to the Persian Gulf to help
find and destroy sea mines as part of an American military buildup aimed at stopping
Iran from closing the strategic Strait of Hormuz in the event of a crisis, U.S. officials said.
Only 88 pounds and 4 feet long, the unmanned, remotely guided submersibles carry a
TV camera, homing sonar and an explosive charge for what amounts to a kamikaze
mission: When it detects a mine, the undersea craft obliterates itself as well as the mine
The Navy bought dozens of the little-known German-made devices, known as the
SeaFox, in February after an urgent request by Marine Gen. James Mattis, the top U.S.
commander in the Middle East, for more minesweeping capabilities in the region,
officials said.

borra, así como la mina
