NEW YORK/MEXICO CITY/NAGOYA, Japan — A Chinese organization allegedly used a base in Japan to smuggle chemicals to make the synthetic drug fentanyl into the U.S., a Nikkei investigation has found.
A key figure in the group registered a company in the city of Nagoya and until at least July 2024 issued instructions from Japan on the delivery of the dangerous opioid and on the management of funds.
