A 44-year-old woman who once hoped to become the Albuquerque Police Department’s first female Asian officer is behind bars, accused of renting properties in the city for use as “stash houses” by human smugglers and laundering their illegal profits.
A federal grand jury indictment made public Wednesday alleges Nan Zhang and her husband, Sanjay Khurana, 62, arranged rental agreements with human smugglers who transported and harbored undocumented immigrants into Albuquerque for a fee. The couple is also accused of offering to “clean” illegal smuggling profits through real estate deals to avoid detection by law enforcement.
