Der Spiegel writes:

“The suspicion had first surfaced, when in May 2008 a customs agent at the Frankfurt airport found around 8.7 million Euros of currency in luggage belonging to four Lebanese and then another half million Euros in the apartment of a suspect in the Rheinland-Pfalz town of Speyer. On the money there were found traces of cocaine and the fingerprints of a Dutch man with the cover name “Karlos,” who for years had been a high-profile figure in the securing of larger German cocaine deals.

“In October 2009, investigators for the Finance Appraisal Group for Customs and the Federal Criminal Bureau (German Finanzermittlungsgruppe von Zoll und Bundeskriminalalmt) arrested in Speyer two members of a clan with origins in Lebanon. Family members have allegedly smuggled millions of Euros by way of the Frankfurt airport to Beirut, this money coming from the cocaine trade in Europe.

“The recipient of this money in Lebanon comes from a family that has contacts that reach to the uppermost circles of Hezbollah whose leader Hassan Nasrallah allegedly administers said contacts. Moreover there are indications that the two detainees in Speyer may have been educated in a camp of the ‘Party of God.’ A near realative of the suspects is disputing the accusations.”
