BIG STORM; Seychelles has a $2.2 million property in New York!

Storms that swirled through North Castle, a town in Westchester county New York, hit a home under construction and collapsed last week. According to a local newspaper that is part of the USA today network, the property is owned by the nation of Seychelles. Land records show that the property was purchased by Seychelles in 2016 for more than $2.2 million.

North White Plains firefighters had responded to 1503 Old Orchard Street to make sure no one was inside the damaged house, which was being built on a 7.92-acre parcel. Strong winds may have hit the building and caused part of the roof to collapse, said Sara Carter, a representative of the U.S. Consul General for the Republic of Seychelles, which owns the property, according to North Castle town records. No one was hurt, she said.

More drama was to follow when Police officers responding to the building collapse on the Seychelles owned property found stolen goods; a caterpillar backhoe that was stolen from the town of Ossining. The caterpillar was reported stolen from Ossining on the morning of July 30. Officials with the Seychelles Consulate did not reply to emails seeking comment from the local newspaper.

Does the Seychelles really own the property or is someone using the good name of Seychelles to hide from paying taxes?
