We, the undersigned members of the international Ethiopian diaspora community—particularly those residing and working within Arab countries—jointly submit this formal request for a comprehensive legal and financial investigation into the digital activities of Habiba Abass (known costly on TikTok as Habiba Abass / "Habu").

We allege that the target is utilizing her multi-platform digital footprint spanning her TikTok profile @haabeebaa8, Instagram account @habu_habu.1, her ንብ 🐝 Family Telegram channel, and her Habu Habu Facebook page to engage in deceptive financial collection practices, illicit international lottery schemes, unauthorized harvesting of personal sovereign identity documents, predatory cyber-bullying, dangerous crisis interventions, and highly irregular cross-border financial transactions that carry severe indicators of transnational money laundering.

SUMMARY OF CORE ALLEGATIONS:

  1. Suspected Transnational Money Laundering & Layering: Moving large volumes of public funds through a complex, decentralized network of individual bank accounts, Zelle, and CashApp setups across the USA, Canada, UAE, Europe, Ethiopia etc. This systematic avoidance of centralized, audited corporate banking channels effectively bypasses global Anti-Money Laundering (AML) controls and financial compliance screening.
  2. Cyber-Defamation, Coercion, and Doxing: Routinely posting the photographs and personal information of targeted men and women across her pages to publicly humiliate them and force them into her broadcasts against their will. By acting as an extrajudicial judge and executioner before verifying facts, she exploits mass digital exposure to defame individuals, directly violating Qatari cybercrime and privacy laws.
  3. Financial Malfeasance & Lack of Auditing: Systematic collection of global public donations utilizing unverified, rotating, third-party digital payment channels, entirely bypassing transparent non-profit accounting standards.
  4. The Miss World Voting Discrepancy: Interception of public funds intended for an official voting event, resulting in the current unaccounted retention of an estimated 1.4 million Birr without financial disclosure or audited transaction receipts.
  5. Illegal Cross-Border Lotteries: Marketing, organizing, and executing international real estate raffles/lotteries within the GCC region without documented state regulatory licenses from host governments or verified cross-border mandates.
  6. Predatory Data Collection & Unlicensed Practice: Mandating that vulnerable, under-protected domestic workers transmit official copies of passports and identification cards via unsecured private messaging applications (WhatsApp), while concurrently using her channels to broadcast what she terms "evidence" dossiers and operating an unlicensed legal and psychological advisory program.
  7. Unsanctioned Public Hostage Negotiations: Hosting live broadcast sessions attempting to negotiate active hostage or severe distress situations without notifying or involving local embassy staff, local police, or trained international crisis negotiators, thereby endangering human lives for public viewership.

 We respectfully urge the regulatory, cybercrime, and diplomatic authorities of both Qatar and Ethiopia to coordinate an immediate audit of the financial flows associated with these broadcasts, enforce digital consumer protection laws, investigate the legality of the cross-border housing lotteries, stop the unauthorized collection of sovereign identity documents, and safeguard the personal data, security, and hard-earned resources of the Ethiopian overseas workforce.
