Talk:Damovo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Damovo is a global company. It's notable due to its involvment in the cisco brasil crisis.

Damovo is no more in investigation by Brazil authorities, about Cisco Brazil Case. His innocence is proved. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.44.141.10 (talk) 12:40, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] tax evasion

The following text was removed by Samoied (talk · contribs), who summarized the edit with (The innocence in cases mentioned, is proved. Damovo no more can be connected with this actions.) but did not give any sources.

Damovo has been implicated by brasilian authorities in evasion of $830m import duty by Cisco Systems in Brasil [1]. Brasilian authorities are also currently investigating political donations made by Damovo Brasil [2]

In July 2007 non-payment by the Italian National Police sparked a credit crunch for Damovo. Bondholders took control of Damovo with former majority stakeholder Apax absorbing losses of over $100m[3]

I know nothing about the case, but it does not seem right to me to delete all that (sourced) information. If there was an accusation of tax evasion, and if they were found innocent, that would be interesting to know. On the other hand, if this accusation (indictment) was the only thing that made the company noteworthy, and if that had no consequences, perhaps the article should be deleted altogether? --The very model of a minor general (talk) 13:02, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

I've restored the information to the page. The item's regarding Brasil are from fairly current reports and Samoied (talk · contribs) offers no reference to contradict that this information is still valid. As to the italian police matter this is widely reported and unless Samoied (talk · contribs) is telling me none of it happened and Apax still owns Damovo, then wft? I also note that editing this article is the only cotrib that Samoied (talk · contribs) has made to wikipedia. Cros13 (talk) 18:02, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
