On Wednesday, the police of the Organized Crime Fighting Service of Caraș-Severin, together with D.I.I.C.O.T. prosecutors, carried out 58 searches in the counties of Caraș-Severin, Timiș, and Arad, in a case of smuggling and money laundering. The criminal group, led by a foreign citizen, specialized in the sale of jewelry made from precious metals, some of which were illegally imported from Turkey. The illegal activities also included the sale of counterfeit clothing and perfumes.
The group had a complex hierarchical structure, including active and inactive public officials and police officers, who allegedly protected the network through corruption. The police identified over 30 members of the group, and investigations continue with hearings and the execution of summons. Previous verification actions at the commercial companies involved were compromised by internal warnings, allowing the group to continue its illegal activities.
