Gold Mafia: British MP Demands Uebert Angel's Assets Be Frozen

A British Member of Parliament in the House of Lords, which is the British Upper House of Parliament, has requested that Uebert Angel and Rikki Doolan, who is married to his niece Nicola, be investigated for alleged gold smuggling, money laundering, and corruption.

Lord Jonathan Oates has also demanded that Angel and Doolan’s assets be frozen since they are also UK citizens.

This follows the release of Al Jazeera’s latest investigation, Gold Mafia, which exposed gangs allegedly driving gold smuggling and money laundering worth billions of dollars in Southern Africa.

Angel, who is President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s special envoy and ambassador-at-large to Europe and the Americas, offered to Al Jazeera’s undercover reporters that he could use his diplomatic cover to carry large volumes of dirty cash into Zimbabwe as part of a laundering operation also involving gold smuggling.

Doolan repeatedly told Al Jazeera’s undercover reporters who posed as gangsters that he and Angel would be able to arrange a meeting with President Mnangagwa.
