Our source obtained the ruling of the Primary Court in Tunis condemning the accused “Malek Al-Hemali Ba’iw,” General Manager of the Al-Inmaa Oil and Gas Company, for the charges attributed to him in the crime of aggravated betrayal to 4 years and the same period for the crime of money laundering by exploiting the facilities granted to him by the characteristics of professional and social activity, and fining him an amount of 40 thousand in addition to another fine of 28.7 thousand dinars considered as confiscation.
The ruling included charging the legal expenses to the convicted and confiscating the frozen financial amounts for the benefit of the Tunisian state, to be deposited in a special account opened in the books of the Central Bank under the name of the General Treasury of the Tunisian state as confiscation of the real estate subject of property deed number 56933 Tunis for the benefit of the state’s private ownership, lifting the freeze on the rest of the property deeds, and dismissing the case against the accused Nadia Bint Al-Sadiq Bin Ali Bin Abdullah.
The court ordered accepting the civil lawsuit filed against the Al-Inmaa Oil and Gas Company represented by its legal representative formally and fundamentally by fining the accused Malek for its benefit with an amount of one thousand dinars as litigation fees and lawyer’s fees and rejecting the lawsuit beyond that, keeping the expenses charged to the party listed, and granting it the right to recover them legally from whoever should bear them, like the rejection of the civil lawsuit filed against the Al-Inmaa Oil and Gas Company Tunis branch.
