Ah, yes, different (and stricter) Swiss permit laws! However, I do believe that the Bank would be able to renew his permit easily as Hallit is still registered as Head of Department and not just a simple Member - that is - he has formed connections with Bank's customers he's responsible for and it would damage Bank's reputation to change its members frequently, especially those in higher ranks. Now, why would Anna endanger her husband's career by leaking the blueprints? I agree here with @Less is more - how could your friend recognize from the blueprints that it was lounge belonging to Bank Audi? Is he employee of Bank Audi himself? Is there a way to get the register of the building to what company the Lounge belongs? If she's using those documents as her own office that's a serious problem indeed and there's no more question as to should or should not Hallit be reported to the bank - he definitely should.Those blueprints are the plan of the appartement avenue Alfred Bertrand, destinated to be an office/lounge (the squares indicate the table, the chairs, etc.). They belong without any doubt to Audi Bank. The actual decoration is in the same vein. @indiana and @teki_awas have both recreated the entire appartement and its location in the building. And I can confirm, because I saw the apartement from the outside, it corresponds exactly to those blue prints (the surface, exposition etc). Anna presented the blue prints like the plans for... her new office in Corsier, if I remember correctly, which is an even more serious problem, because she is faking the use of documents that don't belong to her.
About Joseph : as a Lebanese citizen he can't have a permanent permit only a renewable one which could not be delivered if there is a problem in his situation.
Another thing related to this Anna-Hallit-Carl scheme is tax avoidance. I have reason to believe that Hallit uses Anna's business to write off their costs and invest the money he earns as an employee elsewhere. One legal way companies and their employees write their taxes off is by claiming some costs as 'business' expenditures. As I said it's legal practice. All Anna's travels, eating at restaurants, maybe even shopping can be deduced as 'representative' costs for her business and even cover the costs of her 'network' while Hallit is investing all the money saved through Carl. And I have a strong suspicion that such a scheme wasn't originally created by Anna but Hallit the banker himself. Why do it? Well, why not do it? It's legal. People get greedy and want more of what they have. Hey, you get to travel and eat out for free and save the money to invest for the future projects. It would also mean that Anna, though not rich, is definitely not broke (to my dismay). So, dear Tattlers and dear ehleghant ladieeez, you are the ones who have been bankrolling Anna's lifestyle all along, not only her's but her 'oligarch', 'billionaire', 'millionaire' husband as well.
