The mind boggles where this thing is headed and what the ATO and police will find:
As ASIC muddles on with its investigations into Opes Prime, the parties involved in Australia's most infamous broking collapse have also attracted the gaze of the taxman and Victoria Police's crack organised-crime unit, the Purana Taskforce.
The taskforce is understood to have launched a probe into some of the client base of Opes Prime in an attempt to track down suspicions of money laundering and other criminal activities.
One client is believed to have fled overseas, renounced his citizenship and taken about $30 million to escape the various probes, despite losing more than $10 million in Opes Prime.
