The
Government of Switzerland has disclosed that it had returned to the
Nigerian government about $700m looted by late military Head of State,
General Sani Abacha.
Switzerland
Ambassador to Nigeria, Dr. Hans-Rudolf Hodel, made this known in Abuja
recently at a press briefing ahead of a two-day seminar on Anti Money
Laundering and Combating Financing of Terrorism.
The
envoy asserted that the Swiss government was ready to reopen the case
if Nigerian government presents concrete evidence of any other money
still being held in any Swiss bank, noting that Switzerland had no
interest in withholding illicit funds. He said his country had returned
about $1.7bn to their countries of origin in the last 15 years.
