Podgorica, Montenegro – Wang Shuiming, a Chinese national allegedly involved in illegal online gambling operations and international money laundering, was arrested by Montenegrin authorities after an Interpol Beijing warrant was issued against him.

According to local reports, Wang played a key role in an offshore gambling network that targeted Chinese citizens for high-stakes betting. Authorities claim the profits were laundered through a complex web of international financial and technology firms.

Montenegro’s Border Police Sector identified Wang upon his arrival on a private jet from the Maldives, traveling with documents from the Republic of Vanuatu. The police emphasized their strict border control measures, which facilitated the suspect’s arrest.

Investigations reveal that Wang is also known as Vang Šuiming, a key figure in Singapore’s $3 billion money laundering case from 2023. The Singapore Police reported that Wang, who then held a Turkish passport, was sentenced in May 2024 to 13 months and six weeks in prison after pleading guilty to money laundering and submitting forged financial documents to banks between 2021 and 2022.
Following his conviction, he forfeited $180 million in assets, cash, and luxury goods, the largest forfeiture among the ten individuals charged in the case. He was later deported to Japan on June 1, 2024, after serving his sentence. Authorities are now investigating Wang’s alleged connection to a major offshore gambling site, with potential implications for international financial security.
