Poor Saab; as if their demise in the auto world weren’t enough, their name was once again dragged through the press gutters when Saab Automobile AB’s then-chariman, Mr. Victor Muller was accused of tax evasion in 2010-2011.
Rumours of him pocketing money from the company via Latin America Tug Holding NV, a tugboat company registered in his name, circulated and the Swedish authorities began investigating the matter. Also, Muller’s $773,000 salary at Saab raised some eyebrows.
By association, Spyker has been dragged through the media gutters as Victor Muller is their current CEO, however, they released a statement today stating that Spyker is and was in no way involved in this tax evasion matter.
