Zhitomir police exposed a group of rackets led by a crime boss. The press service of the National Police of Ukraine reported this today, January 4.

“The members of the group requested false loans from the residents of the city of Korosten. In addition, they provided services to “solve” financial conflicts.

If the victims did not agree to the terms of the defendants, then they took them by force their property,” the press service notes.

It is reported that law enforcement officials have collected evidence linking the defendants to eight episodes of criminal activity.
