亚说,这笔62万美元的转账是合法的, 而不是洗钱. Tweah says $6.2 million transfers were legal, not money laundering.

前利比里亚财政部长塞缪尔·D·特威亚作证称，检方620万美元的洗钱案存在根本缺陷，因为调查人员不了解利比里亚政府。 Former Liberian Finance Minister Samuel D. Tweah testified that the prosecution’s $6.2 million money laundering case is fundamentally flawed because investigators do not understand Liberia’s government. 他认为这些转账在公共财政法下是合法的, 并拒绝常规政府资金构成洗钱的想法. He argued the transfers were legal under public financial laws and rejected the idea that routine government funds constitute money laundering.
