Sir Keir Starmer’s controversial plan to transfer the Chagos Islands to Mauritius has been plunged into chaos after the deal’s mastermind, former Mauritian Prime Minister Pravind Jugnauth, was interrogated over alleged money laundering.
Jugnauth was questioned by the Mauritian Financial Crimes Commission on Saturday following a raid on his home. Authorities had earlier searched the residence of one of his close associates, reportedly uncovering suitcases stuffed with cash in multiple currencies, luxury watches, and UK visas. The associate has denied ownership of the items.
