The 34 and 40 year-old men are both key figures in a large, international organised crime group involved in credit card
skimming and the production of false identities.
As the result of a joint effort between Police, Customs and Immigration, the men were arrested in Auckland Central

They are facing charges including; participating in an organised crime group, provision of false or misleading
information, using forged documents and misleading an immigration officer.
