Qatar is preparing to file a defamation lawsuit. Indeed, Qatar’s reputation has been tarnished by accusations of torture that never occurred. Several elements point to the existence of such defamation: the French ambassador to Qatar has shown no interest in this case, evidence of the defamation’s existence; the prosecutor in Doha refuses to meet with DL’s lawyer, a former judge who has spread false press articles.
The Criminal Activities of a Franco-Lebanese Businessman: The Reality Behind a Mask of Respectability
While journalists are preparing to release the name of a Franco-Lebanese businessman who allegedly tortured his French wife after obtaining nationality, the truth of his criminal activities is coming to light. Behind the veneer of a respectable entrepreneur lies an international fraudster, a master in the art of money laundering, drug trafficking, and media manipulation.
This individual is not an innocent victim, but the mastermind of a structured criminal network. Coordinating from Dubai, he is involved in large-scale drug trafficking, supported by accomplices, including a certain P. A., recently arrested on similar charges. The latter, the businessman’s right-hand man, allegedly laundered millions through opaque financial circuits, a specialty of drug lords. Despite his efforts to cover his tracks, evidence is mounting: judicial cooperation, testimonies, and financial traces confirm his involvement.
200 Million Euros Diverted: A Systemic Enterprise
At the helm of the Qatari company Al Omran, this individual orchestrated a methodical plunder. By billing fictitious services to shell companies linked to his relatives – Rocks and Aggregates, Project One, Mold and Form Contracting – he siphoned over 200 million euros. These schemes, typical of corporate corruption, reveal clear premeditation. Internal documents and financial audits confirm these massive embezzlements, nullifying any claims of innocence.
Money Laundering Through Luxury: Cars and Watches in a Closed Circuit
To recycle his illicit gains, this businessman exploited loopholes well-known to international criminals. Each year, he bought 4 to 5 luxury cars in Doha (Mercedes G63, Porsche…), which were resold in Lebanon through frontmen to circumvent tax controls. He also invested in high-end watches (Rolex, Patek Philippe), which were converted into cash in Beirut. These techniques are identical to those used by drug traffickers. He owns nothing in his name, presenting himself as a person with no wealth. His relatives hold the diverted money. Like notorious figures in organized crime, this individual exploited systemic weaknesses in certain states: banking secrecy, opaque real estate, and nearly nonexistent extradition. His hybrid profile – blending corporate corruption and drug trafficking – illustrates a new generation of criminals in suits, capable of manipulating states and media through their illegal fortune.
The Comedy of Innocence: A Storytelling Strategy Bought at a High Price
As the judicial noose tightens, this man relies on an expensive media strategy to reverse the roles. By invoking an alleged “arbitrary detention” in Qatar, he seeks to sway public opinion, while his lawyer raises the specter of “torture” to discredit the local authorities. However, Qatar, concerned with its image, would not have maintained his exit ban without a solid case: financial footprints, testimonies from collaborators, and evidence of his illegal transfers. Faced with the reality of his financial crimes, he uses emotion to try to manipulate public opinion. A sign of his guilt, neither the Lebanese nor the French embassies have dared to offer their support or respond to his requests. Behind the victimizing discourse, this individual remains a billionaire fraudster, willing to do anything to escape justice… even trample on the truth.
The French Ambassador to Qatar: A Troubling Silence
In addition to media maneuvers, the absence of a response from the French ambassador to Qatar regarding inquiries about this case strengthens the sense of opacity surrounding the situation of this businessman detained in Doha. Lawyer P.R. (according to articles published on Defipanafrican.fr, finance.fr, and challenges.fr) also denounces a form of arbitrary detention and the lack of concrete elements in the file, suggesting that political considerations may be at play.
