Scottish companies linked to £5bn Libya fraud
[THETIMES.CO.UK] An alleged £5 billion fraud linked to a former Libyan government official included a web of Scottish companies and more than 90 bank accounts, according to leaked documents that reveal the scale of a Police Scotland operation.

Details of the six-year investigation — code-named Adelanter — were laid out in a briefing by Scottish police shared with Libyan authorities in 2018.

They reveal that a single Scottish company was awarded contracts worth £150 million by government agencies in Libya, including the Organisation for Development of Administrative Centres, tasked with developing infrastructure.

Between 1989 and 2011, it was headed by Ali Dabaiba, 74, a Qadaffy-era government official who was accused of inflating the cost of construction projects and awarding tenders to companies he was connected with.
