Authors : Bouguessa Imene . Bedairia Yahia .

Abstract

The Algerian legislator has approved a number of legal mechanisms that the criminal judge resorts to with the aim of recovering assets obtained from corruption crimes. These mechanisms have varied, some of which are related to confiscation and others related to freezing and seizure, as the assets looted by corruption constitute a serious problem for the leakage of state funds, as these lead to Financial losses affect the national economy and deplete development resources. Most of the legislation has sought to make efforts at the international level in order to create mechanisms to implement asset recovery operations once they are transferred abroad, and to focus on tracking financing and eliminating obstacles that prevent the recovery of these funds
