27 Britons and five others in Dubai ‘laundered more than Dh20m’
Dubai Court
Dubai - Arab Today
An international group of more than 30 business consultants and investors, and 18 companies, have been charged with laundering more than Dh20 million.
Twenty-six British men and a woman, an Emirati, two Pakistanis, a Bangladeshi and an Iranian woman will all face charges at Dubai Court of Misdemeanours.
Only 10 men, aged between 28 and 53, are in the emirate to face the charges, with the rest at large. Most of the defendants are business consultants, investors, partners and managers.
Prosecutors said all committed money-laundering crimes after setting up an international network that was used to coordinate from inside and outside the UAE and cover up their illegal activities.
