These men, who are not from the Chinese community, were reportedly contacted directly by the network through ads posted on sites like Airbnb.

These six men were indicted this Friday, October 8.

Some 140,000 euros were seized from their accounts and the gendarmerie will seize buildings in Châteauroux (Indre) and Bourges (Cher) in the coming days.
