Paraguay deports three undocumented immigrants after crypto mining theft attempt
Paraguayan law enforcement has deported three undocumented immigrants from China after they were caught breaking into a crypto mining facility attempting to steal machines.
Paraguayan law enforcement has deported three individuals and arrested another for attempting to steal crypto miners at a facility near the country’s Itaipu hydroelectric dam.
According to a May 15 statement from Paraguayan prosecutor Irene Rolón, the men were caught by police soon after breaking into a locked section of Teratech SA’s facility in Coronel Bogado, leading to their arrest.
Prosecutors believe the men may have had ties to Teratech as independent contractors, but are still waiting on official confirmation from the company’s CEO.
