Rewards for Justice is offering a reward of up to $10 million for information that leads to the disruption of the financial mechanisms of Hizballah. Adham Husayn Tabaja, also known as Adham Tabaja, is a Hizballah member who maintains direct ties to senior Hizballah organizational elements, including the terrorist group’s operational component, Islamic Jihad.
Tabaja also holds properties in Lebanon on behalf of Hizballah. He is the majority owner of the Lebanon-based real estate development and construction firm Al-Inmaa Group for Tourism Works, which the U.S. Department of the Treasury sanctioned in June 2015. Tabaja’s company Al-Inmaa Engineering and Contracting has been one of the largest and most successful real estate businesses in Lebanon since the late 1990s and has been used by Hizballah as an investment mechanism. In 2006, Tabaja used his ties to Hizballah leadership to create a construction monopoly for Al-Inmaa Engineering and Contracting in the Hizballah-controlled Dahieh section of Beirut and southern Lebanon.
More recently, Tabaja has used the Iraqi branches of Al-Inmaa Engineering and Contracting to obtain oil and construction development projects in Iraq that provide both financial support and organizational infrastructure to Hizballah. Tabaja and his companies have also sought to secure lucrative business contracts in the Green Zone areas of Baghdad, Iraq. Tabaja has worked with Hizballah officials, including Hizballah political official Muhammad Kawtharani, for these projects.
On June 10, 2015, the U.S. Department of the Treasury designated Tabaja as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist pursuant to Executive Order 13224, as amended. As a result of this designation, among other consequences, all property and interests in property of Tabaja that are subject to U.S. jurisdiction are blocked, and U.S. persons are generally prohibited from engaging in any transactions with Tabaja. In addition, it is a crime to knowingly provide, or attempt or conspire to provide, material support or resources to Hizballah, a U.S.-designated Foreign Terrorist Organization. Saudi Arabia has also designated Tabaja and his companies as terrorist entities.
