Somalilandsun – Dahabshilil fully complies with all relevant international laws regulations and industry best practice, including anti-money laundering (AML), counter-terrorist financing (CFT) and know your customer (KYC) regulations in over 126 countries where it operates.
This is per a senior official of the giant money service business in reaction to A bogus story recently published on a disreputable Ugandan website about Dahabshiil’s operations in Uganda that were termed as having been found to not only being “untrue and fallacious” but having emanated from an individual, Dahir Alasow who has a well-documented history of making defamatory allegations about Dahabshiil and other organisations as well.
Below are the verbatim excerpts of the rebuttal by the Dahabshiil official based in Kampala Uganda
Quote – In response to an article recently published on a disreputable Ugandan website which makes a number of extremely serious, entirely untrue and defamatory allegations about Dahabshiil’s network operation in the region, as well as a senior Dahabshiil staff member, Dahabshiil wishes to make clear that it has never been accused of any illegal or suspicious activity by any legal or regulatory authority and there have never been any judicial findings to substantiate or support such allegations.
The allegations in question originate from an individual, Dahir Alasow who has a well-documented history of making defamatory allegations about Dahabshiil and other organisations. Mr Alasow’s actions have previously resulted in a successful court judgment against him, in which the court ruled that Mr Alasow’s allegations were both unsupported and defamatory. Further court proceedings against Mr Alasow are now ongoing.
Dahabshiil operates in over 126 countries and complies with all relevant international laws regulations and industry best practice, including anti-money laundering (AML), counter-terrorist financing (CFT) and know your customer (KYC) regulations-unquote
