Ex-AGF Malami Arraigned in Court for Alleged Money Laundering Scheme
Abubakar Malami, the former Attorney General of Nigeria, appeared in court for arraignment on money laundering charges involving his son, Abubakar Malami Bashir, and an employee linked to Rahamaniyya Properties Ltd. The trio faces 16 counts of alleged financial crimes, including concealing billions in bank accounts and acquiring properties unlawfully across Abuja, Kano, and Kebbi between 2015 and 2025.
The EFCC alleges that Malami's son and the employee engaged in various transactions to disguise the origin of funds and violate anti-money laundering laws. The charges include concealing large sums in bank accounts, cash collaterals, and luxury property purchases in Abuja.
The case is ongoing before Justice Emeka Nwite.
