Abstract
Terrorist financing is the collection or the provision of funds for terrorist purposes. Fin the case of money laundering, the funds are always of illicit origin, whereas in the case of terrorist financing, funds can stem from both legal and illicit sources. The primary goal of individual entities involved in the financing of terrorism is therefore not necessarily to conceal the sources of the money but to conceal both the funding activity and the nature of the funded activity. Therefore, while secrecy and mobility are attributes sought by both money laundering and terrorist financing schemes, terrorist financing does not usually require a “concealment” or “integration justification” component leading up to the stage at which the funds are used. With that, the study utilized and analyzed using “Situational Crime Prevention Theory” and previous work of Recinto, Devaras and Dee. One key aspect for this study is the vitality of ensuring that the adequate oversight is in place both with respect to charities, organizations and to analyzing financial transfers more broadly to be as top priority in our war against terrorist financing. At the same time, it is imperative that we make every effort to ensure that charities and different organizations (NGO) are not being misused for the benefit of the terrorists. Under no circumstances should funds donated to help the needy be used instead to support the activities of those intent on killing innocent civilians.
