French Court Upholds Seizure of $130 Million Linked to Embattled Lebanese Central Bank Chief

The French judiciary has transferred seized assets of Lebanon's central bank governor Riad Salameh and associates to the Lebanese state.
Several European countries are investigating Salameh and associates for alleged financial crimes.
$130 million in assets linked to the investigation have been frozen by France, Germany, and Luxembourg.
Salameh's appeal to unfreeze assets was rejected by a French appeals court.
Salameh denies charges of corruption and says he will only resign if convicted of a crime.
