A joint investigation into an alleged criminal syndicate selling illicit tobacco has led to the arrest of two men.
As reported by the AAP, the pair of men – one a 68-year-old from the Gold Coast, the other a 55-year-old from NSW – have each been charged with money laundering.
The arrests follow an investigation involving federal agencies, Queensland and NSW police, which reportedly seized a total of 57 million illegal cigarettes.
They will be tried in Southport Magistrates Court on 17 July.
