ME News, on April 25 (UTC+8), according to The Times, Colombia and U.S. law enforcement authorities carried out a joint operation that successfully dismantled a cross-border cryptocurrency money-laundering network linked to Mexico’s “Jalisco New Generation Cartel” (CJNG). Since 2023, the network has used cryptocurrencies to move more than 1.9 billion dollars in illegal funds. During the operation, law enforcement seized multiple crypto wallets and cash. Investigations revealed that the network evaded tracking using methods such as splitting funds, dispersing transfers across multiple wallets, routing assets across jurisdictions, and performing token swaps. At present, authorities have not provided details such as the types of relevant cryptocurrencies, the trading platforms involved, or the number of arrests; the case is still under investigation.
