NEW DELHI—An alleged money-laundering network raided by Indian tax officials a few months ago was operating with the support of China’s People’s Liberation Army (PLA), with the goal of funding Pakistan’s intelligence agency’s efforts to disrupt peace in India, Indian media reported this week.

Luo Sang, 42, a Chinese national, was arrested on Aug. 11 during raids by Indian officials in 21 locations around Delhi and in the National Capital Region (NCR). Sang, aka Charlie Peng, was born in Lhasa, Tibet, and was schooled in Nanjing, China.
