Minister of Justice and Counselor Jamal Al-Jalawi said a contract has been signed to sell the real estate assets of late Fahd Al-Raja’an, and his heirs — 42 properties, of which 37 are vacant plots of land in different parts of the country, and 4 building properties which will help recover an estimated $22,900 in social insurance.
This is in addition to $164,400,000, a penalty fine of a total of $246,600,000 dollars with Al-Enma’a Real Estate Company, after getting rid of all obstacles that have hindered the implementation of the judicial ruling in this regard.
Al-Jalawi said in a press statement, a copy of which has been obtained by a local Arabic daily, that after strenuous efforts made by the Criminal Execution Prosecution, the financial and administrative sectors, real estate documentation and the technical office of the Ministry of Justice, ended up signing the contract.
The statement said, in coordination with the Attorney General, it was agreed to send delegations from the Public Prosecution to where the money of Al-Raja’an and his family is abroad, in order to follow up closely the procedures for recovering those funds, in light of the international treaties and agreements concluded by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The statement noted that the money of Al-Raja’an and his heirs have been seized since 2015, and that the death of the first accused, Fahd Al-Raja’an, did not affect the continuity of the procedures for implementing financial penalties, in accordance with the law on protecting the heirs of the first accused against public funds.
