Hadi Khani, Deputy Minister of Economy, spoke about charities suspected of money laundering, saying that there is a possibility of misconduct and deviations in all areas and sectors, including interest-free loan funds and charities. However, it cannot be said that these actions are carried out in all funds and charities.
Khani continued, saying that we have obtained information and data on all charities and interest-free loan funds, and soon restrictions will be imposed on suspicious charities and interest-free loan funds. All charities and interest-free loan funds that do not have a license or, if they have a license, do not comply with anti-money laundering requirements and have not fulfilled their obligations will be subject to restrictions as suspected money laundering entities.
In response to the question of how many individuals suspected of money laundering have been identified in the country so far, he emphasized that with the cooperation of the judiciary, a thousand and 200 people have been convicted of money laundering so far.
