الإثبات في جريمة تبييض الأموال في القانون الجزائري

Abstract EN

The law No.

23-01 amending and supplementing law No.

05-01 relating to the prevention and fight against money laundering and terrorist financing made substantial modifications aimed at activating and strengthening existing rules, particularly in matters of proof.

this article aims to study the modifications linked to the proof and the extent of the conciliation of the Algerian legislator between the need to fight effectively against money laundering and the imperative of respect for the principles rights of defense.

the study came to the conclusion that the legislator did not explicitly enshrine the idea of reversing the burden of proof in this crime, but rather created a kind of ambiguity by establishing the independence of the offense of money laundering in relation to the main offense, and the possibility of confiscation of the accused's funds even in the absence of condemnation.
