Money laundering ring questioned

[11 September 2008]

Six people are being questioned over their suspected involvement in a money laundering ring.

It is believed that a shop in Mayfair, London, was used to obtain millions of pounds illegally through false companies, credit cards and fraud. A woman, 29, was arrested in Mayfair and others were held in raids in Knightsbridge. Police have seized the pawnbroker's shop and jewellery found in it, which will be compared to databases to find out if any of it was stolen.
