After a warning produced by the Metropolitan Police, an investigation was launched into the charities under the accusation of laundering about £10 Million.

The charities share a number of links such as their trustees and a number of officials.

One of the official was sentenced to 10 years incarceration for benefiting of fraudulent activities, theft and money laundering.

The investigation started back in 2014, but remained confidential in order to collect the evidence without giving notice to the implicated.
