Criminals use nurseries to launder cash - Scotsman.com News

Criminals use nurseries to launder cash - Scotsman.com News: "CRIME gangs are muscling in on children's nurseries as a money-laundering front for their illegal activities, police chiefs have warned.

Detectives are investigating up to a dozen nurseries in the west of Scotland believed to be linked with gangsters, Scotland on Sunday has learned.

Sources said they believed the businesses were laundering funds from drugs and extortion rackets by creating 'ghost children', youngsters shown on their books to be in their care but who do not exist and whose fictitious parents pay in cash."
