The governor of the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF), Yasir Al-Rumayyan often fills the covers of golf magazines, but outside of his activities on the golf scene, Al Rumayyan has a lot of business, commitments and partnerships that he must stay focused on. However, the PIF governor has found himself in huge trouble after being caught up in a $70.5 million legal battle in Canada.

Namely, the Ontario Superior Court judge gave the green light for the hearing to proceed to the next phase, approving the delivery of legal documents. Judging by the media captions, Yasir Al-Rumayyan, in cooperation with the main man of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed Bin Salman, as well as the director of PIF, Mohammed Al Sheikh, wanted to harm, silence or possibly destroy the Aljabri's family.
The lawsuit could reach a little more than 70 million dollars.
Who is Aljabri?
Many people ask the question, who is Aljabri? He was the chief adviser to the then Sadudian heir to the throne, Mohammed Bin Nayef, who was deposed a month later by the arrival of Bin Salman.
Although the Saudis are seeking his extradition, they are not succeeding in such intentions.
Al Rumayyan and the others will have to present their defense and submit the newly submitted documents.The details of this case are still unknown, but some details should be revealed in the near future.

Al Rumayyan has been contacted several times, and it will be interesting to see in which direction all this will go. Things are quite tense, and it is really difficult to predict what this case could bring about and who will eventually emerge as the winner.
Saudi Arabia is known as a country with a specific system, which largely differs from the system on the global scene. This is also the reason why many golf fans react furiously to the influx of Saudi money into the USA, stressing that it is a country where basic human rights do not exist.
However, the Saudis deny such accusations, confirming that Saudi Arabia is a country that respects the same principles as other countries.
