Gossip and Original Research

This article consists of gossip, hearsay, malicious intent, and outright wrong information. I retrieved this article because I searched informations about the majority owner of RHI Magnesita (shareholder since 2006). This is interesting as Ignite Luxembourg is getting involved nowadays. I did not only get NO information, no, RHI Magnesita was not even mentioned at all in the article. But I found a lot of speculations about Schlaff's role in the oil and gas business, that's all fictitious. I do not have the time to repair and correct all mistakes, but I will delete the worst parts, i.e. the stories about the bribes he supposedly distributed all over Israel. This is only defamatory and pure speculation. He never stood before a criminal court, he was never indicted and never convicted. In some of the sources he is not even mentioned. This article is not worthy of an encyclopedia.188.219.220.205 (talk) 16:38, 8 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The other way round

This version of the article suggests that Schlaff and his Stasi friends stole 170 million DM. All allegations, no proof. After researching a bit I found out that it was the other way round: Germany unlawfully blocked 83,8 million DM from Schlaff’s business deals in Eastern Germany. After four years of litigation a Swiss court ruled that Germany had to unblock the 83,8 millions as Schlaff had delivered the merchandise and had a legal claim to be paid. Germany did not even seek an appeal after the 500-page-verdict was presented - and transferred the money. Years later, Bernd Schmidbauer offered his excuses. I will correct all mistakes.
