Mehr zum Buch

Organized crime in Australia has reached alarming levels, with at least $10 billion laundered annually, primarily from the drug trade. Clive Small and Tom Gilling illustrate how local crime gangs collaborate with international syndicates, exploiting weak law enforcement to import narcotics from various continents. They delve into the controversial case of Mark Standen, whose conviction revealed deep-seated corruption within the New South Wales Crime Commission. This exposé uncovers systemic failures and ongoing vulnerabilities that allow Australia to remain a target for drug trafficking.
