    It is claimed the group acted together and with others in a scheme which they suspected or knew concerned “criminal property“.

    Prosecutors state they did “receive, deposit, transfer, exchange and organise” the transmission of this cryptocurrency and money by putting it into bank accounts and digital cash wallets on behalf of others.

    The indictment alleges the sum was “over £6million”.

    A number of locations are listed including several in Glasgow city centre as well as shop in Rutherglen, Lanarkshire.

    The group all denied the charge under the Proceeds of Crime Act today, but no plea was entered on behalf of Aftab Allah.

    Erin Campbell – leading the prosecution in the case – said a cryptocurrency specialist will be called to testify.

    The advocate depute told the hearing: “This will assist the jury in interpreting the evidence.”

    Defence lawyers are also likely to instruct a crypto expert.

    Miss Campbell went on to state: “I invite the court to fix a trial for this matter.”

    Lady Poole went on to set a trial and it is scheduled to begin in September 2026.

    The Allahs, both of Lesmahagow, Habib, of Cambuslang, all Lanarkshire, Javid, of the city’s Govanhill, Afzal, of Thornliebank, East Renfrewshire, and Younis, also of Govanhill, remain on bail meantime.
