Moscow / RU. (wib) The Russian arm of McDonalds Corporation is fighting a 160 million Rouble (6,5 million USD) claim brought by tax inspectors, in the second tax case to hit a foreign firm in two weeks, a newspaper reported recently. The Kommersant daily, citing court documents, said McDonalds was suspected of buying meat and packing materials via shell companies, and obtaining value-added tax relief on milk and meat purchases without proper documentation. On November 22, police raided the Moscow offices of Sun InBev, part of the world’s leading brewer InBev, in connection with a probe into suspected tax evasion, a source with knowledge of the situation said at the time.
