Two men arrested and bail over province-wide probe into money laundering and insurance fraud

TWO men arrested yesterday by police investigating money laundering and insurance fraud have been released on bail.

The men – both in their 30s – were detained by detectives from the PSNI’s Organised Crime Branch.

One was arrested in Belfast and the other was arrested in the Derry area by detectives.

Twenty-seven people have now been arrested and bailed since the Northern Ireland-wide investigation began in May.

A PSNI spokesperson said the investigation was expected to continue for some time.
