Loai Deeb

In October 2018, Deeb was sentenced to 4 1/2 year in jail by the Stavanger District Court. Deeb stated he would appeal the sentence.

In June 2015 Norwegian police charged both Loai Deeb and GNRD with money laundering and receiving stolen goods.

On May 27, 2015, Norwegian police raided the headquarters of GNRD in Stavanger and brought Loai Deeb in for questioning. Following the raid Deeb was charged with money laundering and receiving stolen goods. The investigation is carried out by the National Authority for Investigation and Prosecution of Economic and Environmental Crime (Økokrim). Through his lawyer Deeb denied the accusations.

On 17 June 2015 NRK said that the Wikipedia article about Deeb "claims that he is a member of six organisations including European Academy of rights and Federation of the International Criminal Court. Three of the six organisations" have no traces on the internet.

In 2014 he produced the video for the song "The Great East", performed by Carole Samaha, the GNRD Goodwill Ambassador.

In 2013 he earned 4.7 million Norwegian kroner, after years where his yearly income had rarely exceeded 200 000 Norwegian kroner when he had worked as a security guard and as a messenger in Norway. ( In 2014 Brian Whitaker said that the organization led by Deeb, GNRD, is "funded – to the tune of 3.5 million euros a year".)

Deeb established the Global Network for Rights and Development (GNRD), in 2008.

In 2007 he was elected to the local council for Sola district in Rogaland as a member of the Norwegian Labour Party for a period of 4 years.

From 2007 to 2011 he was director of a diploma mill, The Scandinavian University, located in Stavanger with no employees in Norway and without recognition from the Norwegian Agency for Quality Assurance in Education.
