🚨🚨🚨A typical case of receiving drug money with virtual currency USDT in China, sentenced to 2 years in prison!
👀👀👀Using Telegram to trade and contact, the crime is concealed and diversified
The defendant Li Gang knew that zopiclone, midazolam and other psychotropic drugs were controlled by the state, and others bought them for illegal purposes. After obtaining them from illegal channels, he used Telegram and other software to contact the buyers to negotiate the transaction price, shipping address, etc., and used express mail to sell 12 zopiclone tablets and 16 midazolam injections to Huang Moumou and others 5 times. In order to conceal the source and nature of the proceeds from drug crimes, Li Gang collected drug money through virtual currency USDT, and then sold virtual currency USDT and converted it into RMB for use.
This case was heard by the People's Court of Gaoyou City, Jiangsu Province. After trial, the court held that the defendant Li Gang had repeatedly sold and transported drugs, constituting the crime of selling and transporting drugs, and the circumstances were serious; concealing the source and nature of the proceeds from drug crimes constituted the crime of money laundering. Li Gang committed multiple crimes and should be punished for multiple crimes according to law. After Li Gang was arrested, he exposed the criminal behavior of others, and the investigation proved that it was true, which constituted meritorious service and was given a lighter punishment according to law. Based on this, Li Gang was sentenced to three years in prison and fined RMB 22,000.
With the continuous development of Internet technology, the situation of criminals using "Internet + logistics delivery + electronic payment" to conduct drug transactions has become increasingly prominent, and the means of crime have become more concealed and diversified, making supervision and crackdown more difficult. In this case, the defendant Li Gang knew that others purchased zopiclone, midazolam and other psychotropic drugs controlled by the state for illegal purposes, but still used foreign social software to contact sales, and delivered drugs by express mail, collected drug money through virtual currency USDT, and then converted it into RMB, in order to conceal and conceal the source and nature of the proceeds of the crime, which was seriously harmful to society.
