Africa-Press – Gambia. <\/strong><\/span>The Office of the Attorney General yesterday filed four counts of money laundering and stealing against Khadijah Kebbeh, a businesswoman and socialite.<\/b><\/p>\n

The case was mentioned before Justice Francis Achibonga of the Banjul High Court but it couldn\u2019t proceed because the State had failed to notify or serve Ms Kebbeh.<\/p>\n

Counsel Jarju, who represented the state, told the high court that \u201cthe State has a four-count indictment of alleged stealing and money laundering\u201d against Khadija Kebbeh.<\/p>\n

However, presiding judge, Justice Achibonga, observed that there was no indication that Ms Kebbeh had been served with the information sheet.<\/p>\n

Consequently, Counsel Jarju filed an application for \u201cpersonal service\u201d of the information sheet to Ms Kebbeh which was granted by the court.<\/p>\n

According to the particulars of offence seen by press, Ms Kebbeh is charged with money laundering by \u201cdisguising or concealing the illicit origin of the money converted and\/or transferred into her bank accounts despite knowing that those monies are proceeds of unlawful activity\u201d. She is also charged with stealing D2 million, US$20,000 and \u20ac749,965 belonging to GACH Global Trading Company in October, 2021.<\/p>\n

Hearing resumes on 16th February.<\/p>\n
