A con artist who deceived pharmacists and cashiers in Kyiv will face justice
During the investigation, the 45-year-old perpetrator was held in custody, and now he may spend the next three years of his life behind bars. He was apprehended by the staff of the Sviatoshyn Police Department.
The criminal had previously been convicted for similar offenses – he would enter local pharmacies and stores, asking employees to exchange money for him, specifically exchanging 100 hryvnia bills for 1000 hryvnia notes. However, during the exchange, the fraudster skillfully manipulated the cash and returned an incomplete amount to the victims, thereby defrauding three individuals out of more than 14,000 hryvnias, as reported by the Kyiv Police Communication Department.
