A prominent Swedish member of the Hells Angels motorcycle gang will have to survive without the sickness benefits he has been receiving for the past 10 years as he was shown to have hidden income sources.
Hells Angels member Thomas Möller in Malmö will no longer be able to cash in more than 200,000 ($24,500) per annum in sickness benefits after a decision by the Social Insurance Agency (Forsäkringskassan) to freeze the payments, Svenska Dagbladet reports.
Möller had been the subject of an investigation after it had emerged that he had kept incomes totalling several million kronor from the tax authorities.
"Sickness benefit is a means-tested benefit. If we find out that a claimant has received undeclared income then we are within our rights to cease payments," explained Thomas Falk at the agency.
Thomas Möller was one of the 100 gang members on a list of the criminally active compiled by the National Investigation Department (Rikskriminalen) in 2006. He is known to be a leading member of the Hells Angels criminal gang in Sweden.
The police and tax authorities opened an investigation into Möller's private finances that despite the lack of declared income enabled him to drive around Malmö in expensive cars and commute between Sweden and South Africa.
Information received from the the South African tax authorities revealed that Möller had deposited 10 million kronor in a bank in Cape Town.
The tax authorities raised the assessment of Möller income accordingly and his debt to the Swedish tax payer is currently in excess of 130,000 kronor.
Möller could also now be liable for the repayment of millions of kronor received from Forsäkringskassan over the past ten years.
- What kind of society has Sweden evolved into that no longer can provide care even for its prominent members?
They have to pay for all the Muslims.
“They have to pay for all the Muslims.”
- Explains it all.
Muslim stone throwers and biker morons contribute a lot to making Scandinavia the most livable corner of the Globe.
What kind of pansy-a** Hell’s Angel goes out on disability?
I don’t think this is disability. IT is government provided health insurance. I think.
I beg your pardon, Sweden.
I was going to post a snarky story about socialist Sweden and their high tax rates. I checked their rates and, well things are changing.
Sept. 17, 2008 Sweden announced income tax cuts of 15 billion kronor (US$2.21 billion) in a bid to stimulate the job market, one of its primary objectives.
Gives new meaning to the Hells Angels motto “three can keep a secret if two are dead”
“I was going to post a snarky story about socialist Sweden and their high tax rates”
- Let’s hear it, fellow freeper!
Sweden remains too Socialist, even though there still are plenty of good jobs, beautiful summers, Volvos and SAABs and people who can distinguish between right and wrong, good and evil.
It’s true that Sweden and the other Nordic countries (Scandinavia + Finland) recently have begun to realize that Socialism is a dead end.
But again, Socialism is not defeated once and for all on Nordic soil.
Regards.
“three can keep a secret if two are dead”
It’s true.
So the question is... Will Obama and his congress bail this guy out?
"Live fast, die young and leave a good looking corpse" aahh, the old days of biker gangs.
