Alleged drug kingpin argues Australia illegally had him sent to the Netherlands
CNN
Lawyers for a Canadian national accused of running a global multibillion-dollar methamphetamine cartel have alleged that he was illegally sent to the Netherlands as part of a scheme to ensure he stays behind bars for as long as possible.
Tse Chi Lop, 57, was arrested in January after he landed on a flight from Taiwan to Amsterdam's Schipol International Airport. Dutch authorities then detained him on a warrant from the Australian Federal Police (AFP) issued in 2019 in connection with an operation targeting Sam Gor, the drug-trafficking syndicate he is accused of heading. Tse denies all the allegations Australian authorities have levied against him, his lawyer Andre Seebregts said.More Related News
