Those arrested were alleged to be involved in buying or selling illicit products or services on the dark web
150 suspects have been arrested by police across the world for their involvement with the DarkMarket site that was taken down in January.
The 10 month long Europol investigation uncovered the trading of illegal goods through the dark web.
The crime was first uncovered during an investigation into the web hosting service, Cyberbunker, located in a former NATO bunker.
Police raids occurred in Australia, Bulgaria, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Switzerland, the UK, and the US.
The arrested individuals were considered to be “high-value targets”.
