The
Department of Homeland Security coordinated two money-laundering
investigations workshops to train 50 law enforcement personnel
from Uruguay and Argentina. The training conference is being
held Sept. 15 and 16 in Montevideo and Sept. 18 and 19 in
Buenos Aires. Representatives from the Department of Homeland
Security and the U.S. Department of Justice are conducting
the workshops.
The purpose of the conference is to
provide a U.S. perspective of the prosecutorial and investigative
methodologies used in dealing with money-laundering crimes.
The participants include federal police, prosecutors, investigators
from the Central banks and judges.
