The Financial Intelligence Analysis Unit, last year, investigated 142 reports of money laundering or suspicious transactions. From the said amount, 39 cases were passed on to the Police for further investigation. FIAU has two important roles; supervising entities in the financial sector against irregularities which could involve financial crimes and investigating suspicious financial transactions. Interviewed by TVM.com.mt, attorney general, Peter Grech said that the number of reports last year, doubled the average number of cases in the previous ten years.
