Reuters :
Deutsche Bank has reportedly been hit with a $150 million penalty as part of a settlement the German lender signed with regulators for violating anti-money-laundering rules in its controversial relationship with billionaire paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
Epstein, the disgraced billionaire who killed himself last year in federal custody while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges, used his accounts with the bank to pay off co-conspirators, lawyers and even victims, reports The Independent citing the New York Times.
