About The Multi-Billion Dollar Heist: How Two States Destroyed a Bank
In March 2015, the US Treasury issued a devastating press release accusing a small bank in the tiny nation of Andorra, BPA, of being a global money laundering hub for the Russian mob, the Sinaloa cartel, and Venezuelan state corruption. Frozen and liquidated overnight, the institution collapsed, erasing the life savings of thousands of innocent citizens. Yet, behind this official narrative lies one of the most formidable financial and political frame-ups of the 21st century. This gripping investigative documentary pulls back the curtain on a ruthless operation of "lawfare"—the weaponization of the legal system for political warfare—orchestrated in the shadows by the Spanish government. To crush the Catalan independence movement and hunt for the secret offshore accounts of its leaders, Madrid fabricated a web of false evidence, manipulating the US anti-money laundering network (FinCEN) into executing the bank that refused to comply.
