The ministry provided no further details, but media said the suspicions involved a money transfer.

3. I'd start with the Caymans.

Specifically Paul Singer's laundromat, NML. We know the Romneys kept large amounts of money there, safe from the IRS - but it's also been said to be used by Latin fascists, Israeli arms dealers, and other miscreants.

I wouldn't be surprised if the names of half the GOP caucus popped up as well.
