Two domestic helpers whose bank accounts were allegedly used to deposit money raised from crime, which then became “clean” when withdrawn, are headed for trial at Kwun Tong court after they reaffirmed their not-guilty plea in separate hearings today.
Josephine Calabroso, 58 years old, pleaded not guilty to dealing
with property known or believed to represent proceeds of indictable offense, otherwise
known as money laundering and a violation of the Organized and Serious Crimes
Ordinance.
The charge arose from the deposits and withdrawals totalling
$1,025,366.26 that were made in her HSBC account between Aug. 25 and Nov. 30,
2020.
