"Millionaires without remorse" The Balkan Connection is predominantly a Romanian/Eastern European crew based around the Morningwood Blvd. shopping district. Their reign over their home town came to a stop when Romanian authorities arrested multiple high ranking members of the organization. As the group split up, certain crews moved to different countries, slowly losing touch with the other crews. Multiple firearms, hundreds of thousands of illegally obtained euros and kilos of weed. Most of the firearms retrieved by authorities were linked to homicides, which landed members of the initial group heavy sentences. After the group relocated to Los Santos, the remaining members and a couple new associates began building up their group again. Due to various problems and negligence, the group failed in their "mission", with a couple of arrests, putting a serious impediment on the start-up. In 2023, the group is rumored to have surfaced again with strong figures from the old crew, motivated to succeed in their criminal endeavors. With some influence in other businesses in the area and their own businesses, members of the Balkan Connection have developed a connection with business owners, making a breakthrough in the legitimate world of business. Based on their success with their legitimate side, the group only grows stronger with the more recognition they get in the area. The Romanian Police (Poliția Română) and the Los Santos Police Department, supported by Europol and Eurojust, have dismantled a criminal network involved in human trafficking, labour exploitation and money laundering. The action day on 14th of December led to: • 7 house searches (3 in Romania and 4 in Morningwood, Los Santos); • 5 arrests (2 in Romania and 3 in the US); • Seizures included digital equipment and mobile phones, two high-end cars, luxury goods, weapons, and the equivalent of over EUR 230 000 in cash in different currencies. Victims worked for little or no payment Active since early 2021, the criminal network lured vulnerable people in unstable financial situations by offering them jobs and unique opportunities. The suspects recruited victims directly from the Romanian county of Bucuresti, but also through intermediaries. So far the investigators have identified many victims, both male and female, of Romanian origin. The criminal network transported the victims to the US where they took their ID documents and phones and forced them to work for little or no wages at all. The victims were forced to work 16 hours a day and seven days a week. The suspects established a wide network for the recruitment, transportation, accommodation and exploitation of victims. Alike other eastern European groups in the UK, Germany and Spain, only parts of the organization were orientated towards the racket. In collaboration with managers from a number of companies in Los Santos, the members of the criminal gang supplied businesses, such as factories and car wash companies, with low-wage workers. As the suspects were in possession of the victims’ ID documents, they could take out different loans using the victims’ names. The criminal networks also controlled the bankcards of the victims, withdrawing all salary payments made to them by their employers. The gang threatened the victims and their families back home with physical violence. With no means of communication and under strict control by the criminal gang, the victims worked without receiving any payment, and without sufficient food supplies or basic health care. The suspects laundered the criminal proceeds through investments in real estate in Romania and through the purchase of luxury goods. Cross-border coordination Law enforcement authorities initiated investigations into this criminal network in 2022. Europol coordinated the operational activities, facilitated the exchange of information and provided analytical support. Europol deployed an expert to the US to cross-check operational information in real time and support the investigators on the ground. In December 2022, Eurojust set up a joint investigation team (JIT) between Romania and the US to facilitate the judicial cooperation.
