If Ukrainian citizens are enslaved to the drug mafia in Russia, then they should not be afraid to surrender to the local police, since this will greatly facilitate their further fate.

Such a statement to the "Observer" was made by the chairman of the board of the International League for the Protection of Citizens, human rights activist Eduard Bagirov.

"If citizens are in this situation, then I suggest that they surrender to the police. This will facilitate their legal fate as much as possible in further criminal proceedings. If they are detained, but they will not inform law enforcement officers of the country where they are staying, sanctions for them can be much tougher, "Bagirov said..

According to the human rights activist, in this case they will not be able to get bailed out or count on other preventive measures.

"Another option for salvation. To ask their relatives to actively defend their interests here in Ukraine, to contact the media, human rights organizations, the prosecutor's office to inform them that the person does not want to take part in criminal operations, but is forced to do so because of threats or for other reasons ", He added..

As reported by the "Observer", the scheme has become known, according to which over the past few years about 4 thousand Ukrainians have been caught in drug trafficking in Russia.
