Manwin Issues First Statement Since Thylmann's Arrest

LUXEMBOURG—Manwin has issued today it's first public comments regarding the arrest of the company's managing partner Fabian Thylmann. Thylmann was arrested two weeks ago by Belgian officials on an arrest warrant issued by a German court on suspicion of tax evasion. The following statement from Manwin was issued by its director of communications and marketing Kate Miller."Manwin’s managing partner is currently the subject of an investigation by the German tax authorities and accordingly, no conclusion was reached in this matter—as of the date of this release. Manwin’s global operations remain unaffected and, as is customary with our company, we will not comment on pending legal matters. At this time, we request that the media respects the privacy of Manwin associates, employees, as well as their families. We are grateful for the support we received, and look forward to having this matter resolved. Until then, there will be no further comments."
