A man alleged to be a senior member of a transnational crime syndicate and his right-hand man have been arrested in Taiwan, accused of planning to bring $45 million worth of meth hidden in 3D printers into Australia.
Australian Federal Police Assistant Commissioner Pryce Scanlan said the AFP had been working to identify one of the men after encrypted messages were intercepted, allegedly planning more than 30 imports of methamphetamine into Australia in 2020.
