Nine individuals have been charged in Colombia for allegedly laundering approximately $29 million (100 billion pesos) obtained through migrant trafficking operations. The network is accused of facilitating the irregular passage of over 800,000 migrants, primarily from countries like Afghanistan, Iraq, Haiti, and Venezuela, through the Darién Gap towards Central America. They allegedly used fraudulent tourist packages promoted on social media as a front for their illicit activities. The investigation revealed substantial financial inflows into the formal system, even during periods when tourism was suspended. This operation highlights the lucrative and dangerous nature of migrant trafficking in the region.
This crackdown on a major migrant trafficking and money laundering ring underscores the significant criminal enterprise involved in facilitating irregular migration.
