Czech PM Andrej Babis confronted by Pandora Papers reporter

Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babis promised to crack down on corruption and tax evasion. But the #PandoraPapers investigation found that in 2009 Babis bought a French estate through shell companies in tax havens.

Here's what happened when our reporting partners asked about his offshore company.

[philhewett]

The silence is deafening...the hypocrisy is so transparent. Oh, the problems the rich and powerful face.

[availablehage]

[stephanienguyen]

Keep Doing Good Job - please continue to go after and get answers

This may hurt him in the polls because the Czech election is on Friday and Saturday

You are incredible people. Congratulations ICIJ team, investigative journalists, all the people involved, the whole organisation. Your work is already of historic value for the planet, the mankind.

Creepy dudes 'surrounding' a public servant. What's with that?

Babiš has thought that when the Czechs as a nation are silly and by his corruption he spoiled everything there, he thought that the EU is silly as well. An idiot. I am glad, they caught him and now he is going to a jail, finally, at least, I hope so - a Czech´s Berlusconi the2nd.
Thank you, investigative journalists and God bless You

It was a good decision that the Polish PM did not want to meet that guy in Budapeszt.

[dalebruton]

i would like to see that poodle thuggishly protecting him named and shamed too.

[Salimkarim]

[jeremydyer]

Surrounded by hoodlums. This Babis has been a criminal for a long time. I hope he sees jail.

[koumei]

[kendellfriend]

LMFAO. Because he knows he’s guilty that’s why he didn’t answer.
