In Kharkiv region, SBU cyber ​​specialists established whereabouts and detained a Moldovan citizen, who has been on the international wanted list for five years.

In Ukraine, a 32-year-old foreigner escaped from criminal liability for committing large-scale fraud. The criminal used forged documents of the citizen of Ukraine and constantly changed places of residence.

According to intelligence, during 2013-2015, the man deceived dozens of his compatriots, including pensioners and parents of sick children, who collected money for treatment. In April 2016, a Moldovan court found him guilty of the crime and sentenced him to 15 years in prison.

SBU operatives detained an international criminal near his temporary residence in the city of Dnipro.

The issue of applying extradition arrest to the detainee is currently being resolved.

Law enforcement officers are checking the possible involvement of a foreigner in committing similar crimes on the territory of Ukraine.

The operation was carried out jointly with the Criminal Investigation Office of the National Police in the Dnipropetrovsk region.
