Mauritius Mentioned in the Released 'Epstein Files' by U.S. Authorities

Mauritius is mentioned in the "Epstein Files," a vast collection of documents recently released by U.S. authorities. These files are related to the investigation of Jeffrey Epstein, an American financier accused of running an international network for the sexual exploitation of minors.

Arrested in 2019, Jeffrey Epstein died in prison before his trial, officially ruled a suicide. The "Epstein Files" encompass millions of documents seized by investigators, including emails, financial records, and contact lists. They were declassified and made available online by the Department of Justice.

We have reached out to Mauritian authorities and are still awaiting a response regarding any potential involvement of Mauritians in this case. A search for the term 'Mauritius' in these documents yields several thousand results. Some files mention stays on the island, phone numbers with the Mauritian code +230, and professional exchanges. More specific references also indicate companies based in Mauritius.

One email exchange discusses the presentation of a company specializing in fund management, active in the market for several years. Another email mentions a stay in Mauritius in 2010. These documents were seized as part of the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein for the exploitation and trafficking of minors. To date, over three million pages have been declassified.
