According to the intelligence services, "S.M.A." used the accumulated debts of his clients for the illegal appropriation of their movable and immovable property, including residential areas and commercial properties. This occurred through fictitious transactions that were formalized with the involvement of dummy notaries and other affiliated individuals.
During the criminal case, close associates of "S.M.A." were identified, on whom numerous properties acquired through criminal means were registered. Evidence was also gathered indicating that his actions were organized in nature and were accompanied by intimidation, pressure on the victims, as well as the use of connections in law enforcement agencies to block citizens' appeals for the protection of their rights.
