The UK’s National Crime Agency (NCA) has charged 12 individuals in an investigation into the smuggling of millions in criminal proceeds out of the UK.
The NCA suspects that all twelve defendants were cash couriers who transported large sums of money from the UK to Dubai in suitcases on flights.
The specific charge on the defendants is “removal of property from England and Wales, namely cash, which, they knew or suspected, constituted or represented others benefit from criminal conduct”.
