Danny Barrs

 I will write about this chap although I do not any relationship with him or his activities purely because he is one of the main cogs in the criminal machinery that is operated by Ranjeet and Rashpal. 

Danny is one of the key partners to both Rashpal and Ranjeet. As usual, Ranjeet is fronting the operations to move monies from Malaysia as well as from other countries to their various BOTs. According to Satpal’s cousin, most of the offshore related transaction and movement of monies from and into Malaysia were done using Danny’s service. 

Danny ran a money transmitting business located in the Atlanta area named “Global Transaction Services” (GTS) along with several interrelated entities that transmitted hundreds of millions of dollars’ worth of wires on behalf of customers located around the world, many of whom Barrs knew personally and were not able to obtain access to U.S. banking on their own and were sending or receiving wires from countries that posed money laundering concerns.  As I stated above, Danny marketed GTS as a company that could minimize the costs associated with transactions from entities located in one country and customers in other countries, in essence laundering for a network of criminal businessmen including Ranjeet and Rashpal. According to Sze Chan who also owns few night clubs in Kuala Lumpur, Ranjeet had introduced Danny Barrs as a mastermind of money movement where DB apparently ran the syndicate to move monies for few dozen of businessmen and politicians. I don’t know if Sze Chan had used any services of Danny Barrs but he certainly knew that Ranjeet had done many times. 

Danny was indicted in the US, UK and France. There are few more countries like Germany, Austria and Netherlands that did not pursue indictment probably due to complications in law or lack of sufficient evidence. Malaysia certainly did not pursue Danny Barrs although according to Sze Chan, Ranjeet had been using GTS for many years to take monies in and out of Malaysia. You can see the links provided below and do your own research about this.
