ABSTRACT
It was like a scene out of a Jason Bourne movie. At 6:00 a.m. on 27 May 2015, plain-clothed Swiss police entered the posh Baur au Lac Hotel in Zurich, Switzerland, looking to arrest members of an alleged international criminal syndicate. 2 The surprise raid at the early hour meant that seven suspects were taken into custody without incident, although one was able to escape the hotel without being caught, because he saw the arrests being made as he had his breakfast. 3 The suspects were quickly ushered out of the hotel behind white sheets to save them the embarrassment of the arrests.
