United Arab Emirates authorities have jailed Imran Aliyu Abdulhameed, son of Aliyu Abdulhameed, the embattled Managing Director, Nigeria Incentive-Based Risk Sharing System for Agricultural Lending, NIRSAL, for money laundering, fraud.
In the case number 2018/4796 obtained by SaharaReporters, the online medium reported that Imran Aliyu Abdulhameed was jailed in August 2018 at Ras Al Khaimah Central Prison, United Arab Emirates, but was eventually released on bail on September 23, 2018.
The newspaper said it obtained the statement of account which details how Imran laundered money on several occasions.
The online medium also said it obtained a copy of the bail bond of the public prosecution department, the government of Ras AI Khaimah with which Imran’s release was eventually secured.
When Imran Aliyu Abdulhameed was arrested by the cops in Dubai, the newspaper said he was caught driving a Lamborghini Urus car, worth $400,000.00 (Four Hundred Thousand Dollars) and was wearing a designer wrist watch, Audemars Piguet, one of the world’s most expensive wristwatches valued at tens of thousands of dollars.
Imran was a student of Rak American University, the United Arab Emirates in 2016 but he heavily laundered money with his Dubai Islamic Bank Account Number: 005580089498101, IBAN Number: AE250240005580089498101, Savings Account, Ras AL Khaimah branch.
Investigations revealed that Imran’s account was credited by Hadiza Aliyu Isa through Western Union Transfer on August 15, 2016. However, a particular Cromwell Iredia Omage prominently featured more in Imran’s record of illicit transfer of funds.
SaharaReporters said it confirmed that Aliyu Abdulhameed awarded a contract of over N2bn to his son, Imran, for the purchase of sophisticated digital devices such as iPhones, MacBook Air laptops, drones, and ICT software to be used by NIRSAL staff.
NIRSAL Head of ICT, Etin Omonbude, was instrumental in the fraudulent award of the contract to Imran, which was ordered by his father, the MD of NIRSAL.
