The Story | |||||
A Quebec judge has stayed all insider charges filed against former Amaya CEO David Baazov and two others after the prosecution repeatedly bungled in the handling of the case. |
|||||
The judge granted Baazov's motion to stay the proceedings on his third try. |
|||||
In a two-hour oral ruling, Judge Salvatore Mascia slammed Quebec securities regulator Autorité des Marches Financiers (AMF) for its “repeated errors” which showed a “lack of rigor” and “laxism.” Mascia said that the “accumulation of mistakes require a stay of proceedings.” Baazov's motion was based on the fact that AMF inadvertently gave the defense 320k privileged documents that it now wanted back. AMF previously failed to secure crucial phone data and then buried Baazov's camp in millions of files before the trial was originally supposed to proceed. |
