An organised crime ring linked to a Melbourne underworld figure has been smashed as the Victorian government considers a string of new anti-bikie laws.
Twenty-four people have been charged by the Echo Taskforce as part of a probe into a Middle Eastern organised crime ring connected to drug kingpin George Marrogi.
A 52-year-old Roxburgh Park man is the suspected head of Marrogi's money laundering arm and has been charged with recklessly dealing in proceeds of indictable crime greater than $10 million, among other offences.
