The Krasnoyarsk man who stole money from someone else’s card surrendered to the police (video)

After the theft from a bank card, a Krasnoyarsk resident himself came to the police after seeing his photo from the crime scene on social networks.

At the end of November, a 38-year-old woman contacted the duty station and reported that she had lost her card, after which she received a notification that almost 10,000 rubles had been written off. Law enforcement officers established that an unknown man used the card to pay at the liquor store; his face was caught on a surveillance camera.

“On December 22, a Krasnoyarsk resident saw his photograph and information about the search in one of the social network groups, became ashamed and called the police to turn himself in. A previously convicted 42-year-old man admitted that he picked up a bank card on the street and used it to pay in various stores. He repented of his actions and agreed to compensate the victim for material damage,” the police said.

However, a criminal case was opened against the Krasnoyarsk resident under Part 3 of Art. 158 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation “Theft from a bank account.” The minimum punishment under this article is fine of up to 500 thousand rubles, maximum – up to 6 years of imprisonment. An investigation is underway.
