ME News, July 3 (UTC+8), Brazil's Federal Police simultaneously carried out law enforcement operations in multiple locations in São Paulo, implementing the sanctions resolution previously issued by the U.S. Treasury Department to combat the cross-border money laundering gang serving the Brazilian criminal organization "First Capital Command (PCC)." The operation executed 11 temporary arrest warrants and 13 search and seizure orders, with two core individuals involved placed on the U.S. sanctions list. By court order, a total of 1.04B Brazilian reais (equivalent to 2 billion US dollars) in funds, physical assets, and cryptocurrencies under the names of those involved were frozen. The suspect Stella Stefanie Nunes Henrique de Oliveira has been arrested by police, while another suspect, Victor Henrique de Oliveira Shimada, is currently at large. The U.S. accuses the two of establishing multi-layered fund channels, transferring criminal proceeds through methods such as cryptocurrency transfers, cash transportation, and large-scale transfers via public and private accounts. The suspects will face multiple charges, including conspiracy, money laundering, and illegal cross-border transfer of funds. (Source: ChainCatcher)
