In a major blow to organised crime, Australian Federal Police have dismantled a sophisticated criminal network following a dramatic raid on a Revesby property that uncovered a staggering £1.2 million in cash and multiple luxury vehicles.
The Dramatic Raid
Heavily armed tactical officers descended on the western Sydney suburb earlier this week, executing search warrants that revealed what authorities are calling "a significant organised criminal enterprise." The operation targeted a network allegedly involved in large-scale drug trafficking and money laundering activities.
Stunning Haul Revealed
Inside the unassuming property, investigators made astonishing discoveries including:
- Approximately £1.2 million in Australian currency, meticulously bundled and stored
- Multiple high-performance luxury vehicles with an estimated value exceeding £500,000
- Substantial quantities of illicit substances believed to be cocaine and methamphetamine
- Sophisticated money counting equipment and packaging materials
Network Connections
Police sources indicate the raid is connected to a broader investigation into transnational crime syndicates operating between Australia and international destinations. The seizure represents one of the largest cash confiscations in recent Sydney policing history.
Ongoing Investigation
Multiple individuals are currently assisting police with their enquiries, with charges expected to be laid in coming days. Forensic accountants and financial crime specialists are working to trace the origins of the massive cash haul.
"This operation strikes at the heart of organised crime's financial infrastructure," a police spokesperson stated. "Removing these substantial assets significantly disrupts their ability to operate and profit from community harm."
The investigation continues as authorities work to identify all individuals connected to the criminal network and uncover the full extent of their operations.
