Dubai Police Dismantle Global Crime Syndicate Behind Multi-Million Dollar Money Laundering

Dubai Police have successfully taken down a sophisticated international crime network that laundered millions of dollars through fake companies. The crackdown was led by the Anti-Fraud Centre at the General Department of Criminal Investigation.

Fake Firms Used to Mask Fraudulent Funds

According to officials, the gang had registered several non-operational businesses that existed only on paper. These shell companies were created to mislead regulators and banks, allowing the criminals to funnel money acquired through stolen bank cards and fraudulent activities.

Surveillance and Coordination Led to Arrests

After weeks of surveillance and intelligence sharing, Dubai Police tracked the group’s suspicious transactions and dismantled their network. All suspects have been arrested and referred to the judiciary to face prosecution.

Safeguarding Dubai’s Financial System

Authorities emphasized that the operation reflects Dubai Police’s strong commitment to protecting the emirate’s financial ecosystem against organized fraud and money laundering.

Public Awareness and Reporting

Police urged residents and businesses to remain alert to unusual financial activities. Suspicious behavior can be reported quickly through the “Police Eye” smart service or by calling the 901 hotline.

This successful operation highlights how Dubai continues to strengthen its position as a secure global financial hub by ensuring zero tolerance for fraud and money laundering.
