美国联邦调查局（FBI）搜查了41岁美国公民詹姆斯·“弗吉”·钱伯斯（James "Fergie" Chambers）位于西班牙伊维萨岛的度假屋，但未发现任何物品1。钱伯斯于7月10日被捕，目前已在西班牙监狱被关押两个月1。美国政府在新罕布什尔州提交起诉书，指控其清洗750万美元并用于支持哈马斯1。这是美国首次因涉嫌支持哈马斯而寻求引渡美国公民的案件1。
在引渡程序方面，美方有45天时间（至周三）提交支持引渡的文件，否则请求将失效1。钱伯斯曾于2023年中期以约2.5亿美元将股票卖回给家族，其资金还曾用于购买突尼斯足球俱乐部非洲人（Club Africain）1。此外，他曾向加沙人道主义项目提供超过100万美元资金，而加沙的“萨米尔项目”（Sameer Project）已于8月10日宣布暂停运营1。
The FBI has searched the Ibiza vacation rental of 41-year-old U.S. citizen James "Fergie" Chambers, though no items were discovered during the operation 1. Chambers was arrested on July 10 and has been detained in a Spanish prison for two months 1. The U.S. government accuses him of laundering $7.5 million to support Hamas, which marks the first instance of the United States seeking the extradition of an American citizen on such charges 1. The indictment was filed in New Hampshire, and Chambers's lawyer has dismissed the allegations as weak and politically motivated 1.
Before his arrest, Chambers sold his shares back to his family for roughly $250 million in mid-2023, and his wealth was previously used to acquire the Tunisian football club Club Africain 1. He had also contributed more than $1 million to humanitarian initiatives in Gaza, including the Sameer Project, which suspended its operations on August 10 1. The U.S. government has until Wednesday, a 45-day deadline following his arrest, to submit the required documents to support the extradition request, or the request will be invalidated 1.
