UAE Sudan arms case
The Abu Dhabi Federal Court of Appeal sentenced eight defendants to life imprisonment in a case involving the illicit trafficking of weapons and ammunition linked to deals to supply materiel to the Sudanese army. It also imposed fines of AED 1 million on several defendants and six companies, ordered the confiscation of funds and revoked the companies’ licences, while acquitting two defendants. The judgment’s reasoning revealed that “Giranov” ammunition had been brought into the UAE in preparation for its air shipment to Port Sudan. It had been presented as medical supplies, while companies, accounts and forged documents were used to conceal the flow of money. The case involved two deals, the first with a declared value of $13 million, as well as a plan to route five million rounds through six additional deals, which was foiled after the network was exposed.
