Jamaican Police Target Human Traffickers Operating with Bitcoin

According to a recent report, police in Jamaica is currently refining a strategy to go after human traffickers using cryptocurrencies in an attempt to hide their transactions, according to the Deputy Superintendent of Police Carl Berry, who stated that these criminals are increasingly turning to cryptocurrencies.

Carl Berry, while speaking at a two-day Anti-Money Laundering/ Counter-Terrorism financing conference in New Kingston, told bankers that the illicit proceeds of the human trafficking business were finding their way into the banking system, and asked them to collaborate with law enforcement to track the money. He added that Jamaica was having conversations with global law enforcement.
