The United States enters the dance. And not lightly. They have just announced that they are blocking all the assets of the presumed Antwerp millionaire, cocaine baron, Othman El B. stashed in Dubai. Seven months ago, his own 11-year-old niece was killed in a shooting during a settling of scores in Merksem. His mother was the older sister of Othman, Younes and Nordin El B.

The Americans also want to seize all his assets. They also seize the assets of his brother Younes “El Magico” and their accomplice Youssef BA, alias “Benz”. The fact that the Americans have launched their own investigation means they suspect El B. of breaking US laws. US companies, such as banks or credit card issuers, are no longer allowed to do business with him and his employees. Foreign companies operating in the United States also risk problems if they quibble with it.
Othman doesn’t care: “Do you think I have possessions?”

The gang would have imported no less than 16 tons of cocaine via the port of Antwerp in less than a year. The Antwerp public prosecutor’s office and the federal police have been biting their teeth for years on the elusive Othman El B. He denies all these allegations and stresses that he has never been convicted of cocaine trafficking. He claims that the Antwerp court never managed to build a case once morest him. “The Belgian government is unreliable. Their records are full of lies. What did they write in my extradition request? That I was involved in attacks. Everyone knows that I don’t do that.”, he replied to our colleagues from the Gazet van Antwerpen.

Brother Younes El B. must serve a total of twelve years in prison. But the UAE is not so keen on extraditing wealthy foreigners.
The Antwerp public prosecutor’s office welcomes the decision of the American government. “The sanctions imposed by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) of the US Treasury Department on three Belgians are the result of a fruitful collaboration between the Antwerp Public Prosecutor’s Office, the Federal Judicial Police of Antwerp and the American Drug Enforcement Administration.”

According to the American search notice, Youssef BA is now the owner of the real estate agency Luxury Real Estate in the United Arab Emirates. He allegedly helped the El B. brothers set up money laundering companies.
Othman El B. has long been known in the criminal world as one of the major players in the international cocaine traffic. This is also evident from a threatening video, in which a representative of a Mexican drug cartel urges El B. to settle his debts. “Debts are debts of honor.” In this video, a Mexican speaks directly to “Senor El B.”. The man in the video says he speaks on behalf of Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada, the leader of the Sinaloa Cartel. “I’m sorry I sent people to the door of one of your men to settle a debt,” he said apologetically. Then the tone becomes more menacing. “They will tell you who I am. I have the balls to show you my face here.” The man in the video believes that El B. urgently needs to settle an old debt. “But you have to be serious. Debts are debts of honor. Debts of men. This is a man thing, not a fag thing.”
