Tom TuiteA married couple were arrested in Dublin over an international money laundering operation with €21 million allegedly transferred through online banks and cryptocurrency accounts, a court has heard. The couple faced bail objections during separate hearings before Judge John Campbell on Saturday. A German national had €10,000 transferred from his bank to a Paytend digital bank account of Mr Wang. Detective Garda Cusack conducted inquiries with Paytend regarding Jixu Wang, and it was alleged the accused used his Chinese passport number on the account. It was claimed that there were other unusual transactions between another Paytend account held by his wife, Ye Wang, who is a qualified accountant.
