The detainees offered two thousand dollars a week for non-interference in illegal amber mining. As reported by the SBU press center, after the man offered a bribe to the head of one of the SBU interdistrict divisions, the officer immediately informed the management about the illegal offer.

Operatives of the special services in the open criminal proceedings detained the suspect on a "hot". During the search of the merchant's place of residence, law enforcement officers found more than 15 thousand dollars, unregistered firearms with cartridges to him and a fake ID of the internal security officer of the National Police.

The detainee faces from eight to twelve years of prison with confiscation of property.

Recall, as reported URA-Inform, the SBU together with the military prosecutor's office conducted an operation to detain a Chernivtsi lawyer. "Servant of the Law" demanded from one of the local women whose son was detained for the use and sale of drugs, the amount of six thousand dollars. For this, the lawyer promised to influence the decision of the Shevchenkivskyi district court of the city of Chernivtsi to decide on the appointment of a milder punishment to her son. Part of the amount also had to go to the "challenge" of the appeal of the local prosecutor's office.
