The story

Two years after the events of the first film, LAPD sergeants Martin Riggs and Roger Murtaugh are pursuing unidentified suspects suspected of drug trafficking.

Later, consul-general Arjen Rudd and security agent Pieter Vorstedt kill Hans, their associate who lost the shipment of Krugerrands, and debate how to steer the police away from their activities.

It soon becomes clear that both cases are related; after an attempt on Leo's life, Riggs and Murtaugh learn of the former's murky past laundering funds for vengeful drug smugglers.
