They were arrested for drug traffic, not bitcoin money-laundering.
> The alarm had been raised by banks which had seen “large sums of money” being deposited before being immediately withdrawn at cashpoints.
Not the smartest individuals here. How did they think they wouldn't get caught? Seems like another anti-bitcoin peace article which ends with the mt gox failure and this gem: "Bitcoin’s reputation was also damaged when US authorities seized funds as part of an investigation into the online black market Silk Road.". So that means the dollar and euro's reputation are damaged every day when funds are seized as part of 99.9% of criminal investigations?
