BEIJING, June 25 (Xinhua) -- Authorities across China prosecuted over 1,200 individuals for drug-related money laundering offenses from January 2025 to May 2026, the Supreme People's Procuratorate (SPP) said Thursday.
Miao Shengming, deputy procurator-general of the SPP, said at a media conference that procuratorial authorities have thoroughly investigated and cracked down on money laundering offenses, and vigorously advanced the recovery of drug-related illicit assets.
In one major cross-border drug smuggling, trafficking, and money laundering case, a convict surnamed Li was sentenced to death. The case involved the laundering of over 48 million yuan (around 7.04 million U.S. dollars) through virtual currencies, Miao said. ■
