According to Golden Finance, South Korean police recently arrested 90 Vietnamese suspects, suspected of using cryptocurrency to sell drugs in multiple bars and clubs across the country. Police said the suspects smuggled drugs into the country by disguising themselves as coffee and vitamin packages and operated bars and clubs in Vietnam for distribution in multiple cities.
The police initially estimated that the gang smuggled drugs worth 1.04 billion won (about 721,000 US dollars), of which about 710 million won (nearly 500,000 US dollars) have been successfully sold. Some of the suspects are illegal residences. Currently, 18 suspects have been detained and the case is still under further investigation.
