Security services are investigating in one of most important money laundering cases, well informed sources told El Khabar, adding that many Algerian and foreign businessmen, in Annaba, Biskra, Oran, Chlef and Algiers, are being involved.
They are suspected of purchasing real estates in order to be used for laundering as much money as possible.
The same source said the abovementioned suspects have brought their money from abroad, while managing investing a large part of it in export activities, enabling them embezzling their money abroad with net profits.
The sources told El Khabar that security services are investigating on suspicious bank bonds being delivered by some foreign investors to Algerian Authorities enabling them investing huge money, by stages, during the few last years.
However, auctions were the safe heaven for those foreign businessmen while laundering their money, noting that they have brought their money from their country of origin, mostly Eastern Europe and Asia.
They tend to export goods being purchased previously in auctions, while injecting the profits in their capitals, adding to them the huge profits by hard currency which is usually transferred to their accounts in European banks.
The preliminary investigations concluded by discovering that a company based in Annaba, owned by an investor from an Arab country, has made only 5% profits.
Investigators concluded that the company’s manager is accused of tax evasion, while his company’s hard currency profits have been laundered in Algeria before being embezzled abroad under the cover of metal scraps’ exports.
