Mount Lebanon State Prosecutor, Judge Ghada Aoun, issued a notice which prevents the disposal of all the real estate and cars belonging to Central Bank Governor, Riad Salameh, NNA reported on Tuesday.
NNA added that the restraining notice came into effect immediately.
Aoun had ordered last Tuesday the General Security to impose a travel ban on Salameh in light of a lawsuit filed against him.
The order mentioned that Salameh cannot travel through all land, sea and air ports of entry due to judicial requirements in light of the important clues and evidence in the preliminary investigation file, especially the filed lawsuit.
It is worth noting that Salameh is also facing judicial investigations in France, Switzerland and other European countries on suspicion of money laundering and illicit enrichment, among other allegations.
Salameh claimed an audit he commissioned exonerates him of any wrongdoing, just days after Luxembourg said it had opened a criminal case into his financial activities.
