In Turkey, 68 people were detained in a case involving illegal gambling

🔹Istanbul law enforcement identified more than 100 thousand financial transactions totaling 76,3 billion Turkish lira, exceeding €1,4 billion. Some funds were moved through crypto services, converted into USDT, and transferred to external wallets, which, according to the investigation, may have been used to conceal the origin of the money.

🔹The investigation began after an analysis by the Financial Crimes Investigation Board. Law enforcement believes the funds may have come from illegal gambling activities. Separately, in Ankara, arrest warrants were issued for 119 people in a drug trafficking case, of whom 63 have already been detained.

У Туреччині затримали 68 людей у справі про нелегальний гемблінг

🔹Правоохоронці Стамбула встановили понад 100 тисяч фінансових операцій на загальну суму 76,3 млрд турецьких лір, що перевищує €1,4 млрд. Частину коштів переводили через криптосервіси, конвертували в USDT та виводили на зовнішні гаманці, що, за версією слідства, могло використовуватися для приховування походження грошей.

🔹Розслідування розпочали після аналізу Ради з розслідування фінансових злочинів. Правоохоронці вважають, що кошти могли походити від нелегальної гральної діяльності. Окремо в Анкарі видали ордери на арешт 119 людей у справі про торгівлю наркотиками, з них 63 вже затримали.
