The Francophone public broadcaster RTBF reports that detectives investigating alleged money laundering by the former European Commissioner Didier Reynders have asked the Francophone liberal politician to provide information about the providence of a sum totaling around 1 million euro. Last week Mr Reynders and his wife were questioned as part of a wider investigation into money laundering through the purchase of Belgian National Lottery products such as scratch cards.

On Tuesday it emerged that the former Federal Minister and European Commissioner Dider Reynders (Francophone liberal) was among those that had been questioned about the suspected money laundering.
Over a period of many years Mr Reynders is alleged to have purchased National Lottery products as a means to lauder money. The winnings from the lottery products purchased were then, allegedly, transferred to his bank account as “clean money”.
