Investigators from the State Crime Command’s Middle Eastern Organised Crime Squad established Strike Force Rinis2 to investigate money laundering associated with criminal activity.

Following extensive investigations, strike force officers arrested the 36 year old woman during a vehicle stop at Cobbitty, about 10am yesterday, Wednesday, September 14.

She was taken to Narellan Police Station and charged with fabricating false evidence and money laundering – knowingly dealing with proceeds of crime.

Following the arrest, strike force investigators executed a search warrant at a home at Theresa Park and an office in Sydney.

Officers located and seized documentation and electronic storage equipment, which will undergo forensic examination.

Investigations are continuing.
