The prosecutor’s office reminded that two 40-year-old Krasnoyarsk residents tried to sell metal mercury to foreigners in the winter of 2025. One of them took out a toxic metal from a friend. He kept a cylinder with mercury since 2018 in the pantry of a multi -storey building at the request of another friend.
The second participant in the transaction found buyers. Clients were foreigners known in the field of illegal trade in a dangerous substance. 2 kg of mercury they were ready to buy for 20 thousand rubles.
The deal was prevented, as law enforcement officers learned about it.
Criminal cases against the rest of the defendants in the case of mercury trade are in the production of the Soviet District Court of Krasnoyarsk.
