The Tunisian Ministry of State Property and Land Affairs organised a seminar on corruption and the forfeiture of illegal assets in Tunis on 3 and 4 March 2016, in collaboration with the United Nations Interregional Crime and Justice Research Institute (UNICRI) and the European Union (EU). A new draft ‘law on forfeiture’ was presented to all those assembled.
The draft law “aims to introduce new approaches and new methods for formulating legal procedures for the forfeiture of any illicit assets that are the products of corruption or money laundering, by introducing a civil element to the tracking down of these assets”, explains the EU Delegation in Tunis. The EU “considers that asset recovery is an important aspect of its partnership with its neighbours in the South, including Tunisia”, the Delegation said in a news release.
