The European Parliament’s inquiry committee investigating the ‘Panama papers’ is also looking into the recent ‘Bahamas leaks’, a cache of documents leaked in September to journalists working with the international consortium of investigative journalists, naming politicians and others linked to companies registered in the Bahamas between 1990 and 2016.
