It was estimated that from late 1990 to 2002, more than 90% of the heroin in the UK was under control of the Turkish Mafia. (source)
One Turkish Mafia “boss” became rich in only 5 years: from owning a cafeteria to being a billionaire. He owned multiple casinos in an illegal fashion, collaborating with more than 450 other people. One time he declared to his tribe that he lost around half a million dollars from his businesses, but in truth he was making a profit of almost $40 million. Quite a big lie that took a long time to be “discovered”. He also owned around $3 billion spread across 137 bank accounts. On top of this, he had over 450 properties (perhaps all obtained illegally).
