The name of the Hollywood actor Leonardo DiCaprio appears from time to time in the pages of magazines and, unfortunately, news about him is not always positive. So in August of this year it became known that Leonardo is suspected of laundering large sums of money that came from generous sponsors to his charitable foundation Leonardo DiCaprio's Foundation. The day before yesterday there was another news - DiCaprio no longer want to see the UN Ambassador.
Lucas Strauman has set Leo an ultimatum
On October 14, the UN press conference took place in London. It was made by Lucas Strauman, the head of the Swiss foundation named Bruno Manser, specializing in the protection of the environment. During the event, Lucas made a speech in which he mentioned the name of the famous actor:
"Last time it became known that Leonardo DiCaprio is involved in a corruption scandal. We demand of him to abandon the post of UN ambassador on issues related to climate change, because our organization does not trust him. Now we are trying our best to preserve and restore the environment, but as it turned out, our forces are in vain, because we are stuck in corruption. DiCaprio's public speech on deforestation in Indonesia is cynical hypocrisy. We laid great hopes on Leonardo. He was supposed to be part of the solution, but to date the famous actor is part of the global problem. "
However, this is not all news. Strauman publicly demanded to withdraw the money that was allocated by the state fund of Malaysia 1MDB to the picture "The Wolf from Wall Street" and to the charity fund of the star Leonardo DiCaprio's Foundation.

3 billion dollars caused suspicion
The Leonardo Foundation created in 1998. During this time Leonardo DiCaprio's Foundation has allocated about $ 30 million for 70 different projects. However, when this year the fund received 3 billion dollars from the state fund of Malaysia 1MDB, the bodies engaged in corruption and money laundering, suspected the actor of financial crimes. So the experts were interested in DiCaprio's relationship with businessman Jow Low, who has long been suspected of tax evasion, the purchase of an actor sculpture at an auction in Liechtenstein worth $ 700,000, the purchase of a mansion in Hollywood worth $ 39 million, and much more.
