Blanchiment de capitaux : les mouvements bizarres sur le compte d’un haut responsable administratif
In its 2025 report, CENTIF highlights suspicious transactions on the account of a public figure, categorized as a "politically exposed person." Les Échos published the passage in full. Seneweb is also reproducing it.
"In 2025, Centif received several suspicious transaction reports from various financial institutions, relating to unusual financial flows observed in the accounts of a senior administrative official, classified as a Politically Exposed Person (PEP), as well as several natural and legal persons belonging to his family and social circle.
"The analysis of the bank account for the period 2021-2025 revealed numerous transfers from public administrations and semi-public institutions, presented as salaries, allowances or various benefits for a total amount of 321,000,000 CFA francs. It also noted recurring check deposits, some issued by officials of public structures in which the individual concerned held or had held management positions, for a total amount of nearly 60 million CFA francs, as well as cash deposits made by third parties, for large individual and cumulative amounts, without any conclusive documentation on the origin of the funds."
“During the year 2025, the account showed a significant increase in activity, marked by monthly deposits regularly exceeding the levels usually expected given the account holder's declared profile. On the debit side, there were large cash withdrawals, sometimes occurring close together in time, credit card payments abroad, particularly in luxury stores, as well as the issuance of checks made out to the account holder himself and to companies linked to his family circle.”
“Cross-analysis of the flows also revealed close financial links between the personal account of the senior administrative official and the professional account of a company officially active in the service sector and majority-owned by his wife.”
"The company's account opened in the same establishment recorded check deposits and transfers coming directly from the personal account of the senior administrative official for a total amount of 76,500,000 CFA francs, frequent cash deposits for a high cumulative amount without corresponding commercial justifications, as well as receipts from a sports association chaired by the senior administrative official and from a company active in the construction industry.
"Following the investigation, these elements were deemed likely to constitute money laundering operations linked to alleged embezzlement of public funds, abuse of office, conflicts of interest, misuse of corporate assets, and illicit enrichment. These findings led to the transfer of the case to the Prosecutor of the Financial Judicial Pool (PJF). Alleged underlying offenses: embezzlement of public funds; abuse of office and conflict of interest; misuse of corporate assets; illicit enrichment and money laundering."
