Read the Anti-Money Laundering and Combating the Financing of Terrorism Law and its implementing regulations carefully at least once
Now that obtaining power of attorney from clients is done electronically, we should be aware that verifying the client's signature and real identity is very, very important.
Since, according to the Anti-Money Laundering and Combating the Financing of Terrorism Law and its implementing regulations, notaries, attorneys, auditors, accountants, official experts of the judiciary, and legal inspectors of companies are among the most vulnerable persons to money laundering, sometimes the families of persons residing outside the country (because it is not possible to enter the Sana system from abroad and the Judiciary and the Consular General Directorate of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs have taken other measures) are subject to Having a phone or SIM card that belongs to a person residing abroad (the cases of obtaining a lawyer with a valid power of attorney from a resident of the country, provided that the contract is with a lawyer and not originally, are not included in this paragraph), they send an SMS code to the lawyer without knowing and sometimes informing them and try to draw up the attorney contract.
The lawyer also declares his power of attorney to the judicial authorities by presenting this power of attorney to the judicial authorities, and if the judicial authority is informed or the law enforcement or informants report to the official authorities of the country and does not strictly comply with the Anti-Money Laundering Law, especially paragraph A of Article 7 and the definition of Articles 5 and 6 of the Anti-Money Laundering and Combating the Financing of Terrorism Law, they will face disciplinary and sometimes criminal problems.
The above-mentioned cases have been mentioned in several examples of reports received by the honorable attorneys to Abdi Media stating this problem, and it is expected that the Deputy of Crime Prevention and Social Affairs of the Judiciary and the Provincial Deputies and the Supervision Offices of the Bar Associations and the Judiciary Bar Center will appropriately inform the respected lawyers of the consequences of not paying attention to this law and procedure.
