The case goes back to information got by Tlemcen’s National Gendarmerie about huge sums given by a terrorist who was believed to be dead, a year ago. Security forces found out that the terrorist was married to two women. He gave the first wife 3 billion centimes and a box of golden jewels, said the same sources.
Preliminary investigations show that the terrorist’s wife divided the money and jewels on most members of the family who laundered money through building villas and investments.
The people who benefited from terrorism booties work for terror support cells. All the suspects appeared in court and were jailed pending for investigations.
