Gate News reports that on March 19, the Paraguayan National Anti-Drug Secretariat (Senad), in collaboration with the American Bar Association’s Rule of Law Initiative and the Office of Higher Studies of the Prosecutor’s Office, held a seminar titled “Disrupting Crime and Terrorism Financing Networks” at the Sheraton Hotel in Asunción. The event aimed to enhance law enforcement officials’ technical ability to identify and combat criminal organizations that use Bitcoin (BTC) and other cryptocurrencies for money laundering.
The seminar focused on analyzing the trend of transnational criminal networks shifting to digital platforms along the tri-border area, including the “Trapiche Operation” case related to Hezbollah financing networks. Bolivian Police Chief Mirko Sokol revealed that after the arrest of Uruguayan drug lord Sebastián Marset, no large amounts of cash were found at his residence; related transactions were mainly conducted through cryptocurrencies.
Additionally, Paraguay’s Tax Authority (DNIT) issued Resolution No. 47/26 on March 11, requiring cryptocurrency exchanges to report detailed transaction information, including wallet addresses, network used, and transaction hashes.
