　庶民にはすごいというくらいしかわからない。

「Gardaí (Irish police) have seized 44kg of cocaine with an estimated value of €3.1m (£2.7m) in County Wicklow.

The drugs were discovered during a search of a vehicle as part of what the force called a "day of action" on Thursday.

Thirty-seven homes, businesses and vehicles were searched throughout locations in counties Dublin and Wicklow.」

　37件の捜索で€353,000 (£301,000)相当の現金・金融資産、そのほかデザイナーズウォッチ、高級車…が押収されたと。

「A total of €353,000 (£301,000) in cash was seized in the operation and more than €280,000 (£240,000) frozen in bank accounts.

Eight vehicles, estimated to be worth more than €200,000 (£171,000) were seized.」

　マネーロンダリングのタネというわけ。せっかくの素敵時計や素敵クルマがそんなんに使われるのはどうかなあ、とは思う。
