A native of Kyiv, who is serving a sentence in a colony for robbery, is also incriminated for establishing and spreading criminal influence.
It was established that together with the medical worker of the institution serving sentences, the “spotter” organized a channel for the supply of narcotic substances to the territory of the colony. The woman was in charge of receiving the finished “goods” in post offices and carried the drugs to the institution. The man, having authority among other prisoners, sold drug addicts “products”.
