A comprehensive global law enforcement operation, Operation Jackal III, has led to the arrest of hundreds of individuals, the seizure of assets worth $3 million, and the dismantling of numerous criminal networks worldwide.

'By identifying suspects, recovering illicit funds, and putting some of West Africa’s most dangerous organized crime leaders behind bars, we are able to weaken their influence and reduce their capacity to harm communities around the world.' The network is now under investigation in over 40 countries for related money laundering activities. Victims of the fraud suffered significant financial losses, with some forced to sell their homes or take out large loans.

In Switzerland, law enforcement seized over a kilogram of cocaine and approximately EUR 45,000 in cash, arresting multiple suspects believed to be part of a West African organized crime syndicate.
