One of those arrested, Steven Xin, is the local business partner of fallen global casino industry tycoon, Alvin Chau, who was sensationally jailed in Macau last week after being exposed in Australian media reports and casino commissions of inquiry as having links to money laundering and organised crime.
Xin and his co-accused, Zhaohua Ma, are facing accusations they accumulated their wealth by becoming the Australian-based bankers of choice for international drug cartels and wealthy Chinese nationals seeking to circumvent the Communist Party’s capital-flight laws.
Also arrested and charged in Sydney was a mid-ranking employee of the National Australia Bank, Chen Zhang. Others charged include an accountant and a lawyer.
The NAB worked closely with the federal police and is one of several of the big four banks, along with second and third-tier lenders, to be targeted by the syndicate.
都是千万级别的豪宅
Houses bought by syndicate members and seized by the federal police included two luxury homes in Vaucluse and Bellevue Hill with a combined worth of $19 million, a $22 million tower in Burwood and a $21 million five-storey property adjourning Pitt Street Mall in Sydney. Luxury goods including watches and handbags worth millions of dollars were also confiscated.
Federal agents have also seized a 360-hectare plot of land in Cawdor, near Camden, which Ma bought for $47 million in August. Police intelligence suggests the syndicate had aspirations to develop the land into a small suburb, given its proximity to the planned Western Sydney international airport. |
