HMRC Add 10 New Faces To 'Most Wanted' Tax Evaders List
Ten more people have been added to the government's most wanted tax evaders list, despite criticism that just one has been caught from the previous 20 published in 2012.
According to Her Majesty's Revenue & Customs, publishing the original list led to new information on 15 of the wanted, while there were no new updates on four of the accused and only one was captured.
It is understood that another man was captured who had not previously been on the list but was later added to it.
However, critics have declared the most wanted project a "huge failure".
