The Southern Metropolitan Prosecutor’s Office of Chile and the Chilean Investigative Police dismantled a money laundering network related to Tren de Aragua, with funds involved of approximately 90 million USD, and about 20 people were arrested. Reports say the network allegedly converted illegal funds into cryptocurrencies through exchanges and transferred them abroad, and that one Banco Santander account manager was arrested. Prosecutor Héctor Barros said this is one of the largest money laundering cases in Chile in recent years, and that the related illegal activities were not carried out through the bank’s corporate infrastructure; the bank has cooperated with the investigation.

The intersection of traditional finance and crypto is indeed the most prone to issues.

90 million dollars, this scale is considered large in Latin America.
