The ringleader of a gang who laundered £107 million through their London bureaux de change has been stripped of his properties, including one in Harrow.

Ramanathan Thayaparan, 45, was jailed for nine years in May 2014 following an investigation by HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC).

HMRC found that organised crime associates would convert bags of dirty money into easily concealable €500 notes at the bureaux de change. The fraud occurred at the two foreign exchange outlets in Victoria.
