KURDISH VICTIMS FUND COURT REPORT 9
Tuesday, 07.23.2024, 05:25 PM
Since taking government positions of leadership in the Kurdistan Regional Government, the wealth of Masoud Barzani, Masrour Barzani, Waysi Barani, and Barzani family members and their corrupt associates has grown exponentially. So has their astonishing worldwide illegal
laundering of their illegal monies.
Unbelievable amounts of stealing and hiding of the criminal
proceeds of the Barzani Continuing Criminal Enterprise is being widely exposed
for the first time in the court case of the Kurdish Victims Fund in the United
States Federal Court of Washington DC.
This court is a very short distance from the White House
and from the US Congress, where watchers are paying close attention to this
case. The President of the United States
has declared thiscriminal money laundering “an extraordinary threat to the
national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States.” No longer can the Barzani Continuing Criminal
Enterprise hide its crimes behind their pretend friendship with the United
States. True friends don’t steal from their
friends.
Confidential sources have informed the Kurdish Victims Fund
that as more details will be exposed by this case, several government agencies
in United Arab Emirates, Quatar, Germany, and the United Kingdom are also now
taking a more searching look at Barzani monies there and which authorities
expect will be publicly revealed in this case.
Money laundering is a major piece of the claims in this
court case against Masoud Barani, Masrour
Barzani, Waysi Barzani, and the Barzani family members and family members by
marriage, and their criminal co-conspirators.Money
laundering is the process of “cleaning” money that comes from criminal
activities, such as drug dealing or counterfeiting or oil smuggling, so that it
looks like it has come from a legitimate source.
Enormous amounts of monies stolen and pilfered by the
Barzani Continuing Criminal Enterprise are being secretly hidden in numerous
countries around the world. To
accomplish this, the Barzani family enlisted bankers in Kurdistan, especially HamelaGardi,
President of Region Trade
Bank for Investment and Finance, also known as “RT Bank” in
Kurdistan. Her husband Ghafoor Khoshnaw
oversees cigarette counterfeiting business, smuggles cigarettes, and
participates in money laundering in partnership with Masrour Barzani. Gardi and Khoshnaw are now named in the
case.
The Barzani Continuing Criminal Enterprisehas
hired expensive lawyers in Washington DC, Philadelphia, London, and elsewhere
to create what the law calls structures and layers to hide the true ownership. This is a federal crime in the United States
and much of the world. Several of the
Barzani lawyers are also now named in this case, and more will be exposed soon.
For the first time, the entire criminal enterprise of money
laundering by the Barzani regime will be exposed to the public by way of this
court case. Lawyers for the Kurdish
Victims Fund are in possession of thousands of bank documents, emails, letters,
contracts, agreements, and other evidence – all of which will soon be presented
to the court. Added to this is very
chilling witness testimony from intermediaries the Barzani regime paid to do
their dirty work and who are now coming forward to the Kurdish Victims Fund.
Previously secret documents now in the lawyers possessionreveal
for the first time the enormous number of front corporations and trusts and
other camouflaged entitiesthey
have organized in tax
havens and key outposts in the offshore financial system and other secretive
banking jurisdictionsincluding United Kingdom, British Virgin
Islands, Dubai, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, and the United States.And new
evidence continues to come forth to the Kurdish Victims Fund on an almost daily
basis, including new information about secret accounts and assets and
transactions involving Montenegro and Georgia.
All of this will be presented to the court.
Horse racing provides the perfect cover for money laundering. The
international horse racing
industry provides fertile ground for money laundering, with the limited
regulatory control of racing authorities potentially making it more difficult
for the criminal practice to be effectively policed.New evidence
provided to the Kurdish Victims Fund attorneys shows how some of this dirty
money of the Barzani Continuing Criminal Enterprise has been used in the
international horse racing and horse breeding world.
Some
of these monies and investments are hidden in the maiden names of Barzani wives
including Katja Vrecar Barzani, wife of
Mustafa “Babo” Barzani.Other
stolen assets are hidden internationally byJeyra Mohamad Khaled, a
Barzani mother.
According to documents of the U.S.
Department of State, now in the possession of the Kurdish Victims Fund
attorneys, the Barzani Continuing Criminal Enterprise has misappropriated, embezzled,
or outright stolen billions of dollars of Kurdistan public funds for their
personal benefit. The international
transportation of stolen or fraudulently obtained property is a United States crime. As the Barzani Continuing Criminal Enterprise
conspirators have moved the proceeds of their criminal offenses
through money laundering and wire fraud, they knew the transactions were
designed to conceal their various unlawful schemes. They also knew that the propertiesand
proceeds involved in the financial transactions represented unlawful activity, all
in violation of United States laws.
All
of this adding of layers and
chains of ownership between an asset and the beneficial owners in different
jurisdictions and countries, and different types of legal structures, was for
the purpose of creating anonymity and intentional concealment of
ownership information, to conceal
material facts,to protect their corrupt relationship with the true owners,
including concealing assets of individuals who support ISIS. This was all to avoid detection by law
enforcement, taxing authorities, and national security officials.
What
we have reported today is only the tip of an enormous iceberg. More details of this mammoth and monumental
case of crime will be presented in coming days.
