The Public Prosecution Office pleaded in the case of the “Malaysian Fund”, in which three persons are accused, and demanded the imprisonment of the accused, which it described as the largest money laundering operation in the modern era.
The representative of the Public Prosecutor, Director of the Public Funds Prosecution, Hammoud Al-Shami, attended and pleaded before the Criminal Court, and confirmed that the defendants used their influence, violated the laws, and laundered money through fake projects that have nothing to do with reality.
Al-Shami, asked the court: “How can a company that was established a month ago and owned by the first defendant, with a capital of 1,000 dinars, receive a transfer of one billion dollars?”
The representative said, “The first accused received a commission of 15 million dinars from one money-laundering operation, and transferred 6 million of it to his children, pointing out that our religion has legitimized that any meat that grows from forbidden money, the fire is more worthy of it.”
He indicated that the second accused studied with ‘Jho Low’ at the same university, as the latter is currently wanted by 30 countries, and the first accused obtained a visa for him to Kuwait in 2016 and received him at his home, and began planning money laundering.
The representative of the prosecution concluded that this crime harms national security and the national economy, and Al-Shami called for imposing the penalties stipulated in the money laundering law and imprisoning the accused.
