US government says CCP uses US financial system to launder money

The US government's sanction against two Brazilians and three companies in the country this Wednesday (1st) is a response to the threat that the First Capital Command (PCC) offers to the United States, according to the document published by the Treasury Department. The note states that the faction has operations in Florida, ranging from money laundering to drug distribution.
One of the targets is Victor Henrique de Oliveira Shimada, accused of being the main link between the PCC and international drug traffickers. Based in São Paulo, he and his organization laundered more than US$30 million in illicit funds generated in several cities in and around the United States, using cryptocurrencies to transfer the funds back to Brazil on behalf of the faction.
