Rewards for Justice is offering a reward of up to $10 million for information leading to the disruption of financial mechanisms of the terrorist organization Hamas, also known as Harakat al-Muqawama al-Islamiya.
Abdelbasit Hamza Elhassan Mohamed Khair is a Sudan-based Hamas financier who has managed numerous companies in Hamas’s investment portfolio. He has longstanding financing ties to al-Qa’ida and Usama bin Laden-linked companies in Sudan.
He was previously involved in the transfer of almost $20 million to Hamas, including funds sent directly to senior Hamas financial officer and U.S.-designated Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT) Mahir Jawad Yunis Salah.
Hamza’s money-laundering and revenue-generating network for Hamas includes Sudan-based Al Rowad Real Estate Development, Zawaya Group for Development and Investment Co. LTD, and Larrycom for Investment Company, as well as Spain-based Zawaya Group for Development Investment Sociedad Limitada. The U.S. Department of the Treasury has designated all four entities as SDGTs.
On October 18, 2023, the U.S. Department of the Treasury designated Hamza as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT) under Executive Order 13224, as amended. That designation blocks the assets of foreign individuals and entities that commit, or pose a significant risk of committing, acts of terrorism. In addition, the Order authorizes the U.S. government to block the assets of individuals and entities that provide support, services, or assistance to, or otherwise associate with, terrorists and terrorist organizations designated under the Order, as well as their subsidiaries, front organizations, agents, and associates.
