French police bust Georgian crime ring

RFI FRANCE.

French police have busted an alleged Georgian criminal gang working with an Armenian network to sell goods robbed across the Paris region and south-west France.

A huge team of 300 gendarmes rounded up 23 Georgians and Armenians, most of them living in the foothills of the Pyrenees, on Friday.

The profits of the crimes were sent back to the two Caucasian countries, police say.

The accused will be charged and questioned in the western city of Bordeaux.
