In Kyiv, law enforcement officers detained three guys who, according to investigators, were involved in a robbery in the Goloseevsky district. The accomplices deceived a local resident into a deserted place, where they forcibly took away his outer clothing and a bag with personal belongings and money, after which they disappeared.

This was reported by the press service of the Metropolitan Police.. The suspects face up to ten years in prison.

As law enforcement officers said, they received a message from a local resident that on the main street, guys unknown to him, dressed in camouflage buffs, robbed him and disappeared.

“The 22-year-old victim was at a public transport stop in the evening in an expected taxi and came into view of the attackers. One of the defendants approached the young man and said that he was also going in the same direction and offered to go together. Having received consent, he led the guy into an arch between the houses, where two more attackers in masks were already waiting for him.. The attackers grabbed the victim and, pressing him against the wall, tore off his jacket and bag, which contained personal belongings and about 30 thousand hryvnia. After the crime, the offenders fled the scene of the crime,” the police said..

The attackers were discovered by three guys aged 19 to 20 years old, natives of the Rivne and Lviv regions, who arrived in the capital for the purpose of employment. Based on the fact of a robbery committed by a group of people under martial law, criminal proceedings were initiated, and the detainees were informed of suspicion.

The court chose a preventive measure for one of the suspects in the form of round-the-clock house arrest, and the other two were taken into custody, with the possibility of bail..
