Tunisia: Arrest Warrants against three executives of Ministry of Finance

The first investigating judge at the financial judicial pole has issued arrest warrants for a general director and two other executives, as reported by Mosaique FM. These people are facing severe accusations, including the exploitation of their positions by civil servants to earn advantages for themselves or others, as well as money laundering.

This action comes in the wake of an inquiry initiated by the prosecution of the Tunis Court of First Instance. The National Research Unit on Complex Financial Crimes took the step to arrest the general director of a tax administration along with two other officials.

The investigation centres around allegations of financial and administrative corruption related to their professional duties, with a particular emphasis on money laundering activities.
