On 17 April, ICIJ released information about the tiny southern African kingdom of Eswatini — once known as Swaziland. It says that a leak from inside the Eswatini FIU reveals how the king’s broken promises and his inner circle have enabled suspicious money to flow through the landlocked country and beyond. One thing highlighted is how a “special economic zone” — touted as a way to repair the country’s tattered economy — became a ghost town home to 2 “phantom” gold refineries channelling millions of dollars to Dubai.
