The Andorra Hustle

If you have never heard of the country of Andorra... you will now.

Andorra, a tiny, independent country situated between France and Spain in the Pyrenees mountains with a total population of 80,000 people found itself at the center of one of the most convoluted and outrageous bank robberies in modern history: on March 10, 2015, Banca Privada d'Andorra (BPA), a private bank in Andorra, was shut down by Spanish, American, and Andorran governments in Spain's efforts to destroy the Catalonian Independence Movement thus leaving dozens of innocent civilians facing prison for money laundering crimes that never existed, and scores of innocent families have had their entire life savings stolen from them.
