An Arab expatriate man got a jail sentence of one year and subsequent deportation from a Doha Misdemeanor Court for practising illegal money exchange works.
Local Arabic daily Arrayah reported that the defendant used to collect and receive various sums from his compatriots and friends and send the money to their home country through his local agents for delivery to specific individuals.
He also used to charge certain fees on these transactions. The defendant claimed that he was helping people who live on the outskirts and far reaching areas of the destination country to receive the transferred money easily.
However, the court ruled that his actions violate the related laws and regulations.
There are no comments.
