1. (C) Summary. Senior Gabonese officials in the Bank of Central African States (BEAC) colluded to embezzle more than 18.3 billion CFA (about $36 million) from the pooled reserves of the six states of the Central African Economic and Monetary Community (CEMAC) over the past five years, according to a senior Embassy contact at the bank. In a June 12 meeting with Poloff, the source, a senior third-country national, said BEAC discovered the crime during internal audits conducted in the wake of revelations that Gabonese national and BEAC Governor Philip Andzembe had covertly placed 500 million Euros in high-risk investmentQwith French bank Societe Generale (reftel). According to the Embassy source, senior Gabonese political leadership, including the late President Omar Bongo and his son, Defense Minister and presidential hopeful, Ali Bongo benefitted from the embezzlement. The source said Gabonese officials used the proceeds for their own enrichment and, at Bongo’s direction, funneled funds to French political parties, including in support of French President Nicholas Sarkozy.
