The Story of Munzer al-Khasar, an Infamous Arms Dealer

Munzer al-Khasar, known as the Prince of Marbea, was a wealthy Syrian arms dealer living in Spain. He was involved in illegal arms trafficking to rogue states and armed groups, defying international sanctions. He was accused of fueling conflicts, smuggling drugs, financing terrorist groups, and ordering assassinations. Despite the accusations, Khasar denied dealing drugs and claimed retirement from the arms trade. However, he had powerful connections and legal counsel that provided him with a degree of impunity. Khasar's story is one of 12 intriguing tales featured in Patrick Braden-Kief's book called ROGES, True Stories of Grifters, Killers, Rebels, and Crooks.
