Associated organised crime

Vehicles are the syndicates’ currency

Vehicle theft is not a side-line: it is the syndicates’ logistics and currency. The same networks that move drugs north move vehicles across the same border posts.

The networks overlap with

  • Kidnapping for ransom
  • Theft of motor vehicles
  • Terrorism
  • Money laundering

Details pending confirmationKidnapping and vehicle-crime figures are published once confirmed by Crime Detection.
