The debt amounts to over SEK 1.6 million according to UNT and has its origins in the sale of the company Q-Med twelve years ago.
Bengt Ågerup, who has been resident in Switzerland for many years, does not consider himself to have been liable for tax in Sweden at the time of the transaction. The Swedish Tax Agency, however, has a different opinion and was also right in the Court of Appeal in April 2019. Ågerup appealed the decision but was rejected the following year.
However, the bailiff has not been able to access Ågerup’s assets and therefore the state is now applying to ask him to go bankrupt. An unusual method, explains the Swedish Tax Agency’s manager, Jan Kristofersonfor News Agency Siren.
– We do not communicate the purpose of a bankruptcy application in a specific case, but it is clear that we have certain hopes that this will open up avenues that we have not had access to before, says Kristoferson.
Bengt Ågerup founded Stall Zet in the 1990s and has had great success as a horse owner in trotting.
