This is reported by the Ministry of the Interior of Karelia. The organizer of the criminal group was arrested by the police a year ago. It was he who created an online store that sells the potion on one of the shadow platforms. The geography of its activities was large-scale and covered more than thirty cities of Russia and neighboring countries.
The defendant organized a supply channel, developed a logo for the store, provided advertising and found couriers and pawn shops. They worked in secret: no personal communication, real names and drug names. But the police were able to find the criminal group and identified eight accomplices, residents of the republic between 24 and 41 years old. These were interregional couriers, wholesale and retail pawnshops.
Investigators also uncovered a money laundering scheme. The total amount of legalized funds is at least 16 million rubles. And the assets seized during searches in Petrozavodsk and the Moscow region exceeded 40 million.
A criminal case against the organizer of the drug sale has been referred to court. In criminal cases against other defendants, the investigation continues.
