A large-scale operation was conducted in Georgia by officers of the Prosecution Service of Georgia, the United States Secret Service, United States Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation (IRS-CI), the Central Cybercrime Bureau of the Republic of Poland and the Łódź Regional Prosecutor's Office, as well as the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Investigation Service of the Ministry of Finance of Georgia.

The special action, prepared in cooperation with international partners with the support of Eurojust and Europol, involved nearly 100 law enforcement officers from the United States, the Republic of Poland and Georgia, with investigative actions carried out at dozens of locations across the territory of Georgia.

In the course of the operation, searches were conducted of individuals, their residences, vehicles and places of work, resulting in the seizure of electronic evidence and documentation of significant value to the investigation. At the same time, 173 vehicles, high-value real estate and funds held in bank accounts, all believed to have been acquired for the purpose of money laundering, were frozen.

As part of the joint operation, on June 10, two foreign nationals — members of an organized criminal group — were arrested on the territory of Adjara.

Investigations ongoing in various countries in connection with the said criminal case have established that the organized criminal group operating under the alias “AudiA6,” which has been active since 2022, provided cybercriminals and other criminals in the cyber space with cryptocurrency laundering services — concealing the criminal trail from law enforcement — in exchange for substantial fees. Between 2022 and 2025, members of "AudiA6" laundered cryptocurrency equivalent to several hundred million US dollars in the course of their illegal activities.

In addition, the criminal group also operated a cybercriminal forum called “Dark2Web,” which was used to advertise illegal services and connect cybercriminals with one another worldwide.

The effective fight against transnational crime is of particular importance to the Prosecution Service of Georgia, and the agency has extensive experience of international cooperation in this area.

The Prosecution Service of Georgia extends its gratitude to the employees of the Prosecution Service of Georgia, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Investigation Service of the Ministry of Finance for the highly professional and successful conduct of the operation, as well as to the representatives of Eurojust and Europol for their assistance in the framework of the joint operation.

The Prosecution Service of Georgia reaffirms its respect for the representatives of the United States Secret Service, IRS Criminal Investigation (IRS-CI), the Central Cybercrime Bureau of the Republic of Poland and the Łódź Prosecutor's Office, and once again expresses its readiness for effective cooperation in the fight against transnational crime.
