{{Chad\u2019s Justice minister has urged the special court trying Hissene Habr\u00e9 in Dakar to catalogue and confiscate the former leader’s properties.}}<\/p>\n
Mr Jean-Bernard Padar\u00e9 on Tuesday said Chad was taking similar action with the view to selling the properties and compensating the dictator\u2019s victims.<\/p>\n
According to the Chadian government estimates, Mr Padar\u00e9 explained, Mr Habr\u00e9 fled with seven billion CFA francs in 1990 (about $3.5 million).<\/p>\n
Witnesses said the the former leader arrived with the money in Dakar on board Chad\u2019s presidential jet, which he was forced to return.<\/p>\n
Mr Padr\u00e9 further told Radio France that at the time of his ouster, Mr Habr\u00e9 cleared money from the local banks and deposited most of it abroad.<\/p>\n
Quoting an ad hoc investigation commission, Mr Padar\u00e9 said Mr Habr\u00e9\u2019s wealth in Chad alone was worth more than $10 million.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are confident that he owns huge real estate properties in Dakar and has bought shares in a string of businesses across the globe,\u201d the minister continued.<\/p>\n
He appealed to the judges of the special court in Dakar to help recover the properties.<\/p>\n
