The Panama Papers scandal will deepen around the world today when the
International Consortium of Investigative Journalists puts most of the
digital cache of documents online, accessible to all.
The ICIJ
said it will release the documents in a searchable database at 1800 GMT
on Monday accessible to the public at offshoreleaks.icij.org.
The US-based organization said the release “will not be a ‘data dump’” of the sort the Wikileaks group became known for.
But it will reveal names and information on 200,000 offshore entities set up by wealthy individuals around the world.
The
documents are from 2.6 terabytes of data given to a German newspaper,
Sueddeutsche Zeitung, over a year ago by an anonymous source using the
name “John Doe.”
