MADRID (AP) — Spanish police investigating a money laundering case involving former Syrian vice presidentRifaat Assad— the exiled uncle of Syria's current leader — raided properties and blocked dozens of bank accounts belonging or linked to him and his relatives on Tuesday. Civil Guard police said the searches were carried out in the southern coastal towns of Marbella and Puerto Banus with the aid of French police. They followed a request by National Court judgeJose de la Matawho is probing money-laundering crimes carried out by a gang in the two towns, a court statement said. http://www.sfgate.com/news/crime/ar...th-735M-linked-to-11048656.php#photo-12662510
Assad's family lifestyle and wealth does contrast a lot with the millions of Syrians whose only means of fleeing bombs was by walking kilometers by foot. People should have given to the refugees the addresses of properties where they should be staying ( as it comes from their own country coffers).
