Riyadh - A Saudi national and a Syrian man have been convicted by a Riyadh criminal court in a benami business case, the Commerce Ministry said. Haif bin Abdul Kareem Al Muttairi, a Saudi national, and Khalid bin Abdul Wahab Al Al Qash, a Syrian national, were sentenced to death. The Syrian man was running his own contracting firm in Majma, Riyadh province, with the help of a Saudi citizen.
Both were fined by the court. The benami company has been ordered to close and revoke its license and commercial registration. The Saudi citizen has also been banned from starting new companies in the same area. The court also ordered that legal zakat, taxes and fees be levied on the accused. The Syrian will be deported after completing his sentence. He has been barred from entering the country again on a new work visa for life. The court also ordered that the names of the offenders and their punishment be published in the newspapers at the expense of both.
One of the Saudi nationals informed the Ministry of Commerce that he suspected that the contracting firm operating in Majma was a benami firm. An inspection by Commerce Ministry officials later found evidence that the company was run by a Syrian man on his own. After completing the preliminary investigation, the Commerce Ministry later referred the case to the Public Prosecution for legal action.
The cabinet recently passed a new law that provides for imprisonment for up to five years and a fine of up to 50 lakh riyals for benami business people. The law also allows those who provide information about benami businesses to be rewarded with up to 30 percent of the fines levied on violators. Complaints about benami businesses can be made to the Ministry of Commerce through the app launched by the Ministry of Commerce and through the Ministry's website on 1900.
