Tunisian Court Takes Action Against Financial Corruption
The specialized chamber for financial corruption cases at the Court of Appeal in Tunis has decided to indict a well-known lawyer for money laundering as part of an organized gang. According to a source cited by Diwan FM, the individual allegedly took advantage of the facilities offered by his profession to open accounts abroad and constitute assets outside the country without authorization from the Central Bank.
Next Steps in the Case
The same chamber has ordered the lawyer to be referred to the criminal chamber specializing in financial corruption cases at the Court of First Instance in Tunis, where he will be tried in a case related to suspicions of financial and administrative corruption.
