Switzerland is a European country whose banking secrecy laws made it the primary offshore jurisdiction for Iran-Contra arms dealer commissions, BCCI front operations, and Adnan Khashoggi's front companies, before Khashoggi was arrested there in 1988.
Switzerland is a country in Europe known for its banking system. Adnan Khashoggi established front companies in Switzerland and Liechtenstein to handle his commissions. In 1988, Khashoggi was arrested in Switzerland, accused of concealing funds, held for three months, and then extradited to the United States.1
