The Public Prosecutor’s Office has authorized the agents of the Financial and Economic Investigations Department at the Judicial Police Administration in El Gorjani to incarcerate three company workers and issue a search warrant for a fourth person following the uncovering of their involvement in receiving large financial transfers to organize irregular migration for sub-Saharan African nationals.
The information indicates that the investigation started after reports were received about a person frequently visiting the governorate of Sfax, coinciding with his receipt of international financial transfers in varying amounts.
Further investigations indicated that the suspect was employed at a company. Upon questioning its employees, they claimed that the company specialized in organizing training courses and workshops for African migrants. Nevertheless, deeper investigations and scrutiny of the company’s activities uncovered that it had received international financial transfers exceeding half a million dinars within one year.
The investigations confirmed that the funds remained “unaccounted for,” with no clear indication of their expenditure, leading to suspicions that they were used to organize irregular migration operations for sub-Saharan Africans. Additionally, it was discovered that the company’s legal representative was not present in Tunisian territory.
