Hello!It appears that the house of Trump is tumbling down rapidly and in dramatic fashion! This is what Martyn McLaughlin, a reporter for The Scotsman reported yesterday:There's been interesting discussion in the Scottish Parliament this afternoon about the use of Unexplained Wealth Orders to investigate Donald Trump's deals to acquire his Scottish properties and ascertain the sources of the financing. Member of Parliament Patrick Harvey said there is a need to "protect Scotland's good name from association with the toxic Trump brand" and highlighted "serious and long-standing concerns about Trump's business activities," both in Scotland and further afield.Those concerns, he said, include evidence to Congress citing patterns of buying and selling thought suggestive of money laundering, and which drew particular attention to the golf courses in Scotland and Ireland. "The cause for concern is still growing," Mr Harvie told the parliament. "It's now reported that the Manhattan District Attorney's office is investigating the Trump Organisation's inflation of assets, and potential bank and insurance fraud."He added: "The Trump Organisation has been accused of repeatedly reporting fraudulent financial details to the US Office of Government Ethics, while reporting a different set of figures to the UK regulators in respect of the Trump golf courses here in Scotland." Turning to the issue of UWOs (Unexplained Wealth Orders) - he stressed that the Scottish Government is able to go to court and ask for an order so that it can "start getting answers," but said that so far, the government has refused to either confirm or deny that an investigation is underway.He added: "Now that Trump is set to lose immunity from prosecution in the US, he may finally be held to account there. Isn't it time that he's also held to account here? Isn't it time for answers from the Trump Organisation and for the Scottish Government to go to court?" Replying, First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said the decision on whether to pursue a UWO against Trump is one for prosecutors, not politicians - specifically, the Crown Office, which she said operated in a "right and proper" independent capacity from government ministers.She added: "I think everybody is prob well aware of my views about the soon to be former president, and my views are probably no different to ... many people across Scotland. The idea that I'd somehow try to protect him from due accountability I don't think holds much water." Martyn McLaughlin (@MartynMcL) | TwitterFor what it's worth, my understanding of the UWO (Unexplained Wealth Orders) process is that it's the Scottish Government that can decide to go to court, under section 396A of the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002. The legislation doesn't seem to leave much room for ambiguity Proceeds of Crime Act 2002Oh my! And here’s a statement from the Scottish Green Party:“We can't continue to turn a blind eye to red flags that surround [Trump's] biz activities in Scotland, sending a signal to not just Trump himself but those who may be lured by our relaxed approach towards investigating possible financial crimes.” Investigate Trump’s Scottish InvestmentsI’d say, get in line boys and girls! United States prosecutors are fighting each other to get a piece of the Trump Crime Syndicate first themselves. Yes, I’m looking at you Letitia James and Cy Vance. Not to mention the next AG in the Biden Administration.Here’s what an Unexplained Wealth Order or UWO is:An UWO is a relatively new - and rarely used - power which has been designed to target suspected corrupt foreign officials who have potentially laundered stolen money through the UK.The mechanism, introduced in 2018, is an attempt to force the owners of assets to disclose their wealth. If a suspected corrupt foreign official, or their family, cannot show a legitimate source for their riches, then authorities can apply to a court to seize the property.Mr Trump and the Trump Organisation have always stressed that they did not require any outside financing for their Scottish resorts. Scots ministers told to seek ‘unexplained wealth order’ for Donald Trump resortsMoney laundering. That sounds like something Trump and his spawn are capable of. So Scotland could seize his properties within its borders. Oh I do like schadenfridays!I have a feeling that, tonight, I will find the most delectable schaden meet freude bonbon on my pillow…can’t wait to go to bed!

An officer must have probable cause to arrest. That is subject to judicial review. The Supreme Court ruled in Riverside v. McLaughlin that this review MUST take place within 48 hourrs. If the judge does not agree that the arresting officer had probable cause, or if the judge does not concur within 48 hours, the defendant must be released.Lower courts have traditionally given leeway on this, so that some states require this review to happen at a hearing within 72 hours, and the lower courts routinely approve the 72 hour limit even though it appears to conflict with the SCOTUS decision. So, safe to say, if you don't have charges within 72 hours of arrest, you stand a good chance of being released with a habeas corpus motion.In the more unusual circumstance when a warrant is issued under a finding of probable cause by a judge, the probale cause hearing has already been held, and one can expect 72 hours excluding weekends and holdiays to be the limit for arraignment. It would not be fun to have that warrant served on the Wednesday before a holiday weekend; you could be held until court Monday morning and still be ineligible for a habeas release.

Nikesh Arora!Let me tell about the inspiring journey of this person who made it big in the corporate world despite coming from a humble background and a middle class family in UP, India.The story of a man who received more than 400+ rejections to get a job after his MBA, surviving on $200 from his father to becoming one of the World’s highest paid executives.Nikesh Arora was born on February 9, 1968, in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, India. The son of an Indian Air Force officer, he completed his schooling from The Air Force School in Delhi.He graduated from the Indian Institute of Technology (BHU) Varanasi with a bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering in 1989.Nikesh did a brief stint selling WIPRO LTD’s computers around various government ministries in Delhi. Nikesh was paid on a commission basis. (Quite a first job beginning , thinking about how far he has come.)He quit his job with WIPRO soon in order to pursue his higher education in the United States.His first criteria was to find universities that didn’t have an application fee. Northeastern was one of these, and, in 1990, Arora set off for Boston, with $3000 of his father’s money and a strong sense of obligation.He joined the Northeastern University in Boston, Massachusetts, from where he earned an MBA.After graduation, he struggled to find a job, writing more than 400 application letters to various member of the alumni network who were well placed. He has kept these letters to remind himself of his failures and to never give up in life.In 1992, Nikesh Arora joined Fidelity Investments as an analyst. Most of the times he got rejected, he was told that his knowledge of finance was not good enough!To make up for it he simultaneously joined a master's program in finance at the Boston College where he attended classes at night. The hardworking young man topped his class and completed his CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) parallely in 1995.He rose through the ranks at Fidelity and held top finance and technology management portfolios, eventually becoming the Vice President, Finance, in Fidelity Technologies.He left Fidelity to join Putnam Investments but he did not stay for long there. Soon he joined Deutsche Telekom.In 2000, he started T-Motion PLC, a company which provided certain value added services for the newly launched 3G services of Deutsche Telekom. Within two years T-Motion was merged into Deutsche Telekom as a part of T-Mobile where Nikesh worked in various capacities including as a member of the board.The biggest turning point in his career came in 2004 when he learnt of a small company that was looking for someone to manage its European business. The company was Google, which had just recently gone public.Nikesh Arora accepted the job and managed Google’s European operations from 2004 to 2007.He was eventually made in charge of handling Middle East and African markets from 2007 to 2009.Google became a tremendously successful company in the coming years and along with it, Nikesh too grew in stature. He served as President, Global Sales Operations and Business Development from 2009 to 2010.In 2011, he became the Senior Vice President and Chief Business Officer in Google. He bagged a $8 million retention bonus in 2012.Soon, he became Google’s highest paid executive—he received a compensation package of $57.1 million or Rs 344 crores in 2013.He played a key role in garnering more revenues from display ads and getting more advertisers for Google’s YouTube video site as well.However, after leading Google’s advertisement business to new heights for 10 years, Nikesh quit in search of bigger responsibilities.He quit the company in 2014 to join Japan’s SoftBank Corp as Vice Chairman of the group and CEO of SoftBank Internet and Media Inc.Announcing Nikesh's appointment,the legendary CEO Masayoshi Son said Arora is a "strong candidate" to lead the company in future.Nikesh had been at the forefront of arranging for the sale of SoftBank’s shares in Supercell Oy and Alibaba Group.SoftBank has invested heavily under Nikesh in the Indian start-up boom with companies including Snapdeal, Ola Cabs, Housing.com and OYO.During his career with SoftBank Nikesh Arora received $208 million (Approx Rs 500+ Crores/ Year) compensation over a period of two years. (The figure itself is mammoth to such an extent that a middle class person can't even earn a percent of it in his entire lifespan.)In June 2016, he abruptly resigned from his position at SoftBank, taking the business fraternity by surprise.Since then, the hard-charging exec has been a regular name on lists of possible CEOs for a number of different jobs, including at Uber, as well as at some private equity and investment firms.At present Nikesh Arora, has been named CEO and chairman of Palo Alto Networks, replacing longtime exec Mark McLaughlinNikesh Arora has been paid $128 million to lead US-based Cybersecurity firm.Nikesh Arora’s compensation rivals those of Apple’s Tim Cook and Walt Disney’s Bob IgerThe first time Nikesh Arora made a public speech, he spoke on polymers, and lost his script just before going on stage. He was 17. Since then he stopped making scripts for his speech.He is a keen golfer, once scored a hole-in-one at the DLF course in Gurgaon (“purely a statistical event”), and has played with some very important people, including Lawrence (Larry) Summers, US President Barack Obama’s former economic adviser.Nikesh has served on the board of directors at Aviva, Airtel, Colgate-Palmolive, Richemont (Current) Sprint, Softbank, The Harlem Children Zone, Tipping Point (Current) and Yahoo Japan (Chairman)Nikesh got married to the Indian City Properties CEO Vikaram Thapar’ daughter, Ayesha Thapar who runs her business from New Delhi.Nikesh wishes to travel across the world. He has already traveled to over 60 countries and of course has miles to go.In the man’s words “Life is a combination of capability,luck and hard work, if you get all three you’re able to break through various ceilings.”The man who rose from rejections, mediocrity to become the king of the corporate world - Nikesh Arora!Cheers!
