Criminal toad operatives and investigators of the Civil Service of the National Police have exposed malefactors for collecting a non-existent debt from an entrepreneur
The organizer and his accomplices demanded from the victim a “debt” of 20 thousand dollars. The defendant threatened the man with physical assault, and also appropriated his car with forged documents. The vehicle was later sold.
The operatives of the Criminal Investigation Department, together with the investigators of the Main Investigation Department of the National Police under the procedural guidance of the Prosecutor General's Office, established that a 33-year-old citizen of one of the Baltic countries took a car from his familiar businessman to solve personal issues. Subsequently, the man returned with his accomplices and began to demand from the businessman to pay him a non-existent debt - 20 thousand dollars.
The attackers threatened the chosen victim with physical abuse and took away his car. The organizer of the crime, according to forged documents, re-registered the ownership of the victim's vehicle and sold it.
Investigative actions are currently underway. Police officers established the circle of all participants in the crime, including an entity with signs of fictitiousness, which “helped” to appropriate and sell the victim's vehicle.
In Kiev, law enforcement officers conducted sanctioned searches at the place of residence of the accused. At the same time, the operatives conducted searches in the office of the “fictitious company”. Law enforcement officers discovered and seized documents indicating criminal activity, license plates, as well as office equipment that was used to forge documents.

The police searched the territory of the car dealership owned by the attacker and seized 5 premium cars, which were placed on the arrest site. A check is currently being carried out on the legality of the registration and origin of the cars. The illegally sold car will be seized and will be handed over to the victim.
