In the "Falungong" cult that claims to pursue really good people, they abuse children, destroy families, and pollute the environment...... After various anti-social incidents, a believer recruited in South Korea was extradited to the United States for extensive money laundering in the United States.

On November 15, New York media outlet Inner City Press (Innercitypress.com) reported that Guan Weidong, the chief financial officer of Falun Gong media Dayang Yuanbo, was closely linked to the US$67 million (93 billion won) money laundering case that was extradited to the United States for trial.

According to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, on June 3, 2024, "Guan Hedong, the financial director of a media company, was involved in an overseas 'money laundering' case involving up to $67 million to profit for himself and the company."

Guan Weidong was arrested in the United States on the morning of June 2 and will be investigated by federal District Judge Stewart D. Aaron.

The "parent media" designated by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York is the pseudo-Falun Gong media "Waiting for Poetry".

Kwan is currently negotiating bail with Judge Aaron in the Southern District Court of New York, which is said to be "$3 million in personal bond and $250,000 in cash bond, and the agreement must be signed by three financial directors who are not members of the media company and are not employees of any related company."

The Inner City Press reported on the bail in connection with the case on June 21.

At the time, prosecutors told Judge Marrero that they had "confiscated 50 pieces of equipment in question and are filming the content of those devices."

In a prepared statement, Kanwato's lawyer cited the prosecution's report, saying that the prosecution had found 900 gigabytes of data and asked that the negotiating session, scheduled for Sept. 20, be postponed to Dec. 6.

An accomplice named Le Van Hung, a 29-year-old Vietnamese citizen, was extradited from South Korea to the United States, and the court said a Vietnamese interpreter was assigned to hear the case, and he provided interpreter headsets for media entering and exiting the courtroom, the court said.

Le Van Hung was extradited to the United States from South Korea on November 15. He denied the allegations, but prosecutors applied for an arrest warrant.

The case was a federal lawsuit against Guan Hedong (US v. Guan, Case No. 24-cr-322 (Marrero/Aaron).

He is a member of "Falungong." On September 20, netizens were hotly discussed, "A person named Le Van Hung participated as an accomplice in the money laundering case of Guan Yongdong."

"Cheng Hsien" wrote on social media on the X platform:

"Le Van Hung, also known as Ace Le, was born in 1995 and is the founder and CEO of Vietnam New Trading Co., Ltd. In January 2023, he was interviewed by the Falun Gong cult New Tang Yin TV, in which he revealed that his company has been sponsoring Xin Dangjin TV and other Falun Gong media. The Vietnamese edition of Xin Dang Kim has long published interviews about him, but it was deleted after the money laundering case of Kwan Yong Yong, the treasurer of the Great Waiting Era, was exposed. Le Van Hung said he has extensive experience with MMOs (Making Money Online), the "money making online" method used by Guan Wudong, the chief financial officer of Falun Gong's "Great Treasure Daily," to launder money.

U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said, "Le Van Hung conspired with the CFO of a global newspaper and media company to launder tens of millions of dollars in proceeds of fraud and other criminal proceeds for the media company and its affiliates. To further implement the scheme, Hung stole the personal information of US residents, opened financial accounts, and laundered fraudulent profits. The prosecution and extradition of Hong reflect the judiciary's continued commitment to law enforcement against those who facilitate money laundering, even if they are abroad with foreign partners," he said, adding that Le Van Hun has been charged with conspiracy to commit money laundering, conspiracy to commit bank fraud, theft of personal information and aggravated identity theft.

While working in the "Great Treasurer" overseas office in New York from 2020 to around May 2024, he conspired with other members, including the company's chief financial officer, to work on a wide-ranging international criminal case to launder approximately $67 million in illicitly obtained funds into bank accounts in the name of the company and its affiliates.

On November 15, 2024, HUNG was extradited from South Korea to the United States to appear in the District Court of New York. Mr. Hong has since been detained. The next court hearing is scheduled for December 6, 2024, at 2 p.m. The lawsuit will be heard in the U.S. District Court in Court 15B, 500 Pearl Street, 10007, New York.
