Alleged Money Laundering: Contact Ban with Witnesses Maintained Against Ashik Allysaheb Ameersaheb Jagai

The son of police superintendent Ashik Jagai, Ashik Allysaheb Ameersaheb Jagai, had his motion to amend one of the conditions of his release denied on Tuesday, December 23, 2025. This condition prohibits him from contacting witnesses. He had informed the court that he wished to reach out to six individuals in order to prepare his defense for the Financial Crimes Commission (FCC). These individuals include his accountant, a broker, and four business partners, notably Wendip Appaya and Steven Mootoocurpen, among others.

However, the court allowed him to maintain contact with his father, SP Ashik Jagai, determining that the FCC failed to provide valid justifications. This decision was made by Magistrate Chrisinta Chavrimootoo.

In this case, Ashik Allysaheb Ameersaheb Jagai faces three provisional charges of money laundering. The offenses are alleged to have occurred between April 10 and December 2024 in Vallée-des-Prêtres.
