US Fentanyl Crisis: Chinese "Bankers" Launder Mexican Cartel's Drug Money | Firstpost America
US officials uncovered an alleged alliance between a major drug cartel and an underground Chinese banking group in Southern California. The group laundered over $50 million in drug proceeds. Twenty-four people were charged with drug distribution, money laundering, and operating an unlicensed money-transmitting business. As part of the investigation, 302 pounds of cocaine, 92 pounds of methamphetamine, 3,000 ecstasy pills, three semi-automatic rifles with high-capacity magazines, and eight semi-automatic handguns were seized. China’s Ministry of Public Security in a social media said that it had also arrested a person suspected of involvement in “drug-related money laundering” following a US tip-off.
