A money laundering scheme was disrupted by the Economic Police in Bulgaria’s second largest city of Plovdiv. It has been operating for 3 years and the accumulated profit is over BGN 700,000.
The scam involved selling trainers, imitations of famous brands, through four sites. The goods were hidden in a specially built secret warehouse.

The money received was laundered through the construction of an event centre building and a 4-storey building in “Izgrev” neighbourhood.


So far, 10 people have been arrested for alleged involvement in the scheme. The main organizers are two brothers, one of whom has been circulated as wanted.
On Monday, the Prosecutor’s office will seek a remand, which is the strictest possible measure.
