HEAD OF DOMINICA'S CBI PROGRAM, EMMANUEL NANTHAN, SACKED AMIDST MONEY LAUNDERING ALLEGATIONS MADE BY UNITED STATES

The longtime head of the Commonwealth of Dominica's Citizenship by Investment (CBI) Passport sales programme, EMMANUEL NANTHAN, has been terminated with prejudice, according to reliable law enforcement sources from the island nation. It has been stated with authority that the United States filed not one, but two demands with Dominica's government, to the effect that Nanthan was conducting money laundering operations within the Continental United States, and that his position at CBI was to be cancelled forthwith. 

Reportedly, Dominica's Prime Minister, Roosevelt Skerrit, who has a close relationship with Nanthan, resisted the American demand, and a second, stronger, letter had to be delivered. We have previously discussed repeated allegation of corruption, as well as fraud, in connection with the country's CBI program. Nanthan was a defendant in a civil suit, styled Mohammed Raad Al-Qaisi VS. Emmanuel Nanthan, filed in Dominica in 2020, alleging personal misconduct. We have previously shown images of Nanthan traveling around Dominica via private helicopter, which is an extremely expensive mode of transportation in the East Caribbean states.

Nanthan is known to have LAUNDERED the proceeds of crime for the Iranian sanctions evader and fraudster, ALI REZA MONFARED, who held both CBI and diplomatic passports issued by Dominica, by passing the money through the PORTSMOUTH GAS STATION, which is owned by Nanthan. Monfared, who operated for a time in Malaysia and its local offshore financial centre/tax haven, LABUAN, regarding sanctioned Iranian petroleum products and payments.

 Monfared was subsequently forced to leave Dominica, and relocated to the Dominican Republic, from where he was extradited to Iran; he was convicted and is currently serving a 20-year sentence, his co-defendant, BABAK ZANJANI, was sentenced to Death for "Corruption on Earth." evidence of Nanthan's money laundering operations, Dominica-Malaysia, follows.

Given Nanthan's close connection with PM Skerrit, his arrest and/or extradition to the United States is extremely doubtful. It is not known whether there exists a sealed indictment against him or Skerrit in the US.
