The U.S. Department of Justice questions the motion to dismiss the charges against the co-founder of Tornado Cash

ChainCatcher news, according to Cointelegraph, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) opposes the motion to dismiss the conspiracy and money laundering charges against Tornado Cash co-founder Roman Semenov.

They argue that the defense has raised disputed facts that should be considered by a jury and are not suitable for resolution at an early stage. The DOJ accuses Semenov and others of conspiracy to commit money laundering, operating an unlicensed money transmission business, and violating sanctions, claiming that entities such as North Korea's Lazarus Group used Tornado Cash for money laundering.
