Gims, a Congolese Rapper, was Detained in Paris on Suspicion of Money Laundering

Gims, a Congolese rapper, was detained as part of a money laundering probe on Wednesday after arriving in Paris. According to Africa Intelligence, the National Judicial Customs Service arrested the musician, whose true name is Gandhi Djuna, at the Roissy-Charles de Gaulle airport.

It claims that judges in Paris are looking into a sophisticated money laundering scheme that involves several shell corporations established in various nations. These companies have allegedly provided fictitious invoices, laundered money from illicit operations, hidden the source of the funds, and were established to evade French taxes.

According to reports, the same case has previously featured five former drug traffickers from the Paris area who are now involved in financial crime. According to Africa Intelligence, authorities are specifically looking into a sizable luxury real estate project in Marrakech that Gims is promoting. Last year, the singer, who was born in Kinshasa, sold the most records in France.
