This is a great article all about the tunnels and how they were constructed: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2015/08/03/underworld-mon...
Wow. That’s a lot more professional looking than I expected it to be.
The men who made it were in fact professional miners and engineers from what I understand.
I can't help wondering about your word "were" (past tense)?

Doing secret work for a ruthless criminal gang must be risky.

You seem to be right. This article talks about mass graves of diggers being found: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2015/08/03/underworld-mon...
Were. Still are. But they were, too.
Sorry for the convenience.
