The CBA has thwarted the laundering and introduction into circulation of PLN 2 million
CBA special operation: two persons detained by the Central Anti-Corruption Bureau in connection with an attempt to legalise PLN 2 million.
The officers of the CBA Regional Office in Łódź have obtained information on a criminal procedure in Mazowieckie voivodship. The materials gathered during several weeks gave grounds to carry out an operation during which two individuals were detained.
It all took place during a meeting on Tuesday afternoon in one of Warsaw hotels. The CBA investigators’ findings indicate that the detainees undertook to launder PLN 2 million of proceeds of crime by putting the money into economic circulation through companies and fictitious services. For conducting the fictitious transactions one of the men demanded remuneration of PLN 600 thousand.
The detention was carried out a moment after the handover of PLN 2 million.
The CBA officers secured the cash and electronic data carriers, the place of the transaction was searched and other necessary procedural activities were carried out. The men were referred to the Regional Prosecutor's Office in Warsaw where they were charged. By the decision of the court, one of the detainees will spend the next three months in custody.
