A Hong Kong exporter at the centre of an anti-terrorism probe in Latin America is battling to clear his name of allegations that he is involved in arms trafficking, tax evasion and money laundering.

SAR businessman Rajkumar Sabnani spoke out as his brother-in-law, niece, business associate and an employee remain under house arrest in Paraguay.

Last week the Sunday Morning Post revealed they had been held since July under the country's "invitation to violence" laws.

Reports last week from the border city of Ciudad del Este, where they are being held, said prosecutors would soon announce there was not enough evidence to lay terrorism charges, but independent confirmation of this could not be obtained.

Authorities in Paraguay are also investigating them for tax evasion and money laundering.
