Less to do with any breech of Tor or silk roads security and more to do with perpetrators coughing up anything that might mitigate their circumstances.
I should mention this is an Israeli newspaper, also relating the operation to Tel Aviv. Sounds to me like an Israeli operation was busted...
I very very highly doubt this is the Silk Road. But it sounds like a smuggling service behind tor.

SR,BMR or probably Atlantis.
Interesting that it was "economic crimes unit" (?) and they specifically mention the syndicate was using bitcoins ... next time they bust a Cartel they should make special mention if they were using Dollars, Euros, Yen, Shekels ... or IMF Special Drawing Rights.
Sounds similar to the Silk Road.
But it doesn't say "silk road". DPR isn't that much of an idiot to do something like giving identifying information to dudes on the internet, giving dudes his addresses, and so on.
