Genoa Court Upholds Detention in Probe of Alleged Hamas Fundraising Network

Prosecutors describe charities posing as aid groups that funneled money to Gaza structures tied to Hamas.

Overview

  • The Tribunale del riesame di Genova confirmed pretrial detention for Mohammad Hannoun, who remains held at Terni under maximum-security measures.
  • Judges also upheld custody for Raed Dawoud, Riyad Albustanji, and Yaser Elsalay, identified in filings as members of Hamas’s foreign compartment linked to the Italian cell.
  • The court released Khalil Abu Deiah, Raed Al Salahat, and Abdel Abu Rawa, who remain under investigation on financing allegations.
  • Investigative documents allege that more than 71% of funds raised through groups such as ABSPP O.D.V. were diverted to Hamas, with roles spanning the ABSPP Milan branch, propaganda events, and hand-carrying cash abroad.
  • Il Giornale published a video it says shows Dawoud inside a Gaza tunnel, adding public attention to the ongoing Domino investigation.
