The U.S. Treasury Department has sanctioned several individuals and 10 casinos alleged to have financial ties to Latin American drug cartels.
According to the Treasury, the individuals and casinos were involved in cartel-related money laundering and other criminal activity in Mexico and Europe.
“The United States and Mexico are working together to combat money laundering in Mexico’s gambling sector,” said John Hurley, who leads the Treasury’s Office of Terrorism and Financial Intelligence. “Our message to those supporting the cartels is clear: You will be held accountable. We thank the Government of Mexico for its strong partnership in this effort.”
