As one of the Resource company's, we approached him as we have approached all other stakeholders of the Internet to promote NRS ideology of transparency and accountability. But like they say, "looks can be deceptive". In the process of engaging him, we began to notice some questionable behaviour including hate speech and apparent support for a terrorist organization. Due to the seriousness of what we uncovered, we advised the officer engaging to continue to cooperate with his in order to gather evidence of potential criminal activity.</span></span></span><br></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0pt;line-height: 1.2;text-align: left;direction: ltr;" class="x_-2118972685zw-paragraph x_-2118972685heading0"><span class="x_-2118972685EOP"> </span><br></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0pt;line-height: 1.2;text-align: left;direction: ltr;" class="x_-2118972685zw-paragraph x_-2118972685heading0"><span class="colour" style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><span class="font" style="font-family:Roboto"><span class="size" style="font-size: 12pt; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; letter-spacing: 0pt; font-weight: 400; vertical-align: baseline; font-style: normal;">Amin Dayekh initiated the request for money from one of NRS's employees, as well as soliciting support for him to become AFRINIC Director, as shown also in the screenshots shows, in which Amin has demanded, "When will you send the money?" "and his comment, "I am also interested to become a director in AFRINIC." This immediately raised serious red flags for us. We proceeded to investigate Amin thoroughly as part of our standard due diligent process for the sake of a safer Internet. What we have uncovered after this Is extremely shocking and alarming.</span></span></span><br></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0pt;line-height: 1.2;text-align: left;direction: ltr;" class="x_-2118972685zw-paragraph x_-2118972685heading0"><img style="opacity: 1;height: 161.0px;width: 219.0px;border-width: 0.0px;border-style: none;border-color: rgb(0,0,0);padding: 0.0px;border-radius: 0.0px;top: 0.0px;left: 0.0px;" src="cid:0.28869202970.3769416452540590820.18196a5a317__inline__img__src" class="x_-2118972685zw-image" width="219" height="161"><br></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0pt;line-height: 1.2;text-align: left;direction: ltr;" class="x_-2118972685zw-paragraph x_-2118972685heading0"><span class="x_-2118972685EOP"> </span><br></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0pt;line-height: 1.2;text-align: left;direction: ltr;" class="x_-2118972685zw-paragraph x_-2118972685heading0"><span class="x_-2118972685EOP"> </span><span class="colour" style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><span class="font" style="font-family:Roboto"><span class="size" style="font-size: 12pt; text-decoration: none; font-variant: normal; letter-spacing: 0pt; font-weight: 400; vertical-align: baseline; font-style: normal;">During our investigation, we found that Amin's social media posts were of huge concern - his comments have indicated his potential fundraising for a prescribed terrorist organization (</span></span></span><span class="colour" style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><span class="font" style="font-family:Roboto"><span class="size" style="font-size: 12pt; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; letter-spacing: 0pt; font-weight: 400; vertical-align: baseline; font-style: normal;">HIZBOALLAH).
