Transaction of Smuggled Goods and Articles in Money Laundering Crimes Related to Smuggling:A Qualitative Analysis
As one of the seven predicate crimes of money laundering in China's criminal law,smuggling involves the transnational flow of goods and funds and is prone to become a high-incidence area and a disaster area for money laundering crimes.For money laun-dering crimes involving smuggling,the perpetrator buys and sells smuggled goods and articles,and turns the illegal proceeds in the form of physical objects into money,ultimately realizing the purpose of the illegal acts.The qualitative analysis of the act of trading smuggled goods and articles should be based on the principle of no repetitive evaluation,i.e.if the act of selling has been evaluated by the predi-cate crime,it will no longer be evaluated independently;or it will be identified as money laundering crime.
