CAB seizes luxury mansion linked to organized crime in Co Louth

Officers from the Criminal Assets Bureau (CAB) seized a luxury €1 million mansion in Co Louth owned by Eduard and Natalia Chiper, linked to organized crime. This action follows the couple settling a case with the CAB in October. The Chipers, who moved to Ireland from Moldova, previously faced a cannabis possession case that was dropped. The CAB alleges that their wealth stems from criminal activities, including drug and firearm trafficking. The mansion, known as The White House, features high-end finishes and amenities. It is expected to be auctioned next year after the seizure.
