Documents submitted to an arbitration procedure in Israel on behalf of Israeli mining magnate Dan Gertler implicate him in paying as much as $360 million in bribes to officials in the Democratic Republic of Congo, going by a request for legal assistance that Britain’s Serious Fraud Office passed to the Swiss government in 2019.


In the affidavit, the ruling said, the suspect explained how $360,292,535 in cash was lent to a company that used the money to pay large sums of cash to a senior public figure in Congo.
