A 57-year-old British accountant who had escaped from Malta when he was sought for money laundering was remanded in custody after he pleaded not guilty to money laundering in November 2008 and earlier.
James Hadwen was extradited to Malta from Cyprus last Friday.
Police believe Mr Hadwen laundered money for a British man who has been convicted of fraud. He was arrested in Cyprus last Friday and extradited to Malta.
He was also charged with transferring property which he knew came from a criminal activity directly or indirectly, concealing the source of the property and acting as an accomplice.
Lawyers Franco Debono and Mario Camilleri appeared for Mr Hadwen, Supt Paul Vassallo and Insp. Raymond Aquilina prosecuted.
