On September 14, Hong Kong Customs held a press conference to announce a recently detected suspected money laundering case involving more than 3 billion Hong Kong dollars, which is the highest amount ever handled by Hong Kong Customs in similar cases.
According to reports, the Hong Kong Customs recently took an operation codenamed "Shadow Hunting" and arrested 6 people during the detection operation. Among them, 5 arrested persons were from a family and the other was a licensee of a local money changer.
They are suspected of using personal bank accounts to process a total of more than HK$3 billion in funds of unknown origin since 2018.
The customs has frozen 30 million yuan in assets of the family, and the money changer license involved was revoked last Friday (11th).
