Financial Crimes Commission investigates alleged document leak

The Financial Crimes Commission (FCC) has launched an internal investigation following allegations that confidential documents were leaked to a suspect. The probe was triggered after official FCC documents were discovered on the mobile device of a suspect involved in a money laundering case linked to drug trafficking.

As part of the investigation, the laptops and phones used by FCC investigators have been seized for forensic examination to determine the exact circumstances of the potential leak and establish authenticity. Commission officers have also been questioned by a panel tasked with clarifying the matter.

The FCC stated it is taking the suspicions of information leaks ‘very seriously’ and will take all necessary measures based on the investigation's findings. The institution reaffirmed its commitment to fighting financial crime, including money laundering and corruption, while emphasizing that no violations undermining its integrity or credibility will be tolerated.
