He was charged with illegal acquisition, storage with intent to sell and sale of narcotic and psychotropic substances, as well as legalisation (laundering) of the proceeds of crime (Art. 307(1), (2), (3), Art. 209(1) of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).
The investigation established that in February-March 2024, the accused was engaged in the sale of narcotic and psychotropic substances. These were amphetamine, MDMA, PVP and PMA.
He bought the “goods” for sale through Telegram chatbots by searching for so-called “megastores”. Later, he bookmarked them, took photos and recorded their geographical coordinates for his “clients” in different locations in Stryi and the district. In particular, in forest plantations, on the river bank, near the bridge near the cement plant.
In addition, the man bought a car for the profits from this “business”. Thus, he managed to legalise the proceeds of crime.

Note: Pursuant to Article 62 of the Constitution of Ukraine, a person is presumed innocent of committing a crime and shall not be subjected to criminal punishment until his or her guilt is proved by law and established by a court verdict of guilty.
