Chinese Gang Ran 7 Gold Smuggling Companies in Nepal, CIB Finds

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CIB) has made a startling revelation, claiming that a Chinese criminal group has secretly set up seven front companies in Nepal to smuggle gold illegally.

SP Sanjay Singh Thapa, who led the investigation into a major 60 kg gold smuggling case, revealed that out of these seven companies operating in Nepal, six were involved in smuggling gold into the country.

“At first, they started trafficking small items and later moved on to gold smuggling, seeing the success of their criminal activities,” said SP Sanjay Singh Thapa.

At the same time, the CIB has uncovered another discovery, revealing that an additional 302 kg of gold had been hidden inside brake shoes and smuggled long before the recent gold smuggling case came to light.

While the ongoing investigation continues to uncover gold hidden in various other products, the CIB, which initially began investigating over 60 kg of gold smuggling, has identified and named 50 individuals as defendants in this extensive and complex case.
