According to the investigation, they offered a man liable for military service for $3 thousand to establish a III disability group for a year. To make the illegal procedure look believable, the defendants provided the “patient” with fictitious hospital treatment and a series of examinations. After the agreed amount of bribe was transferred, the accomplices were detained.
During the searches, more than $200 thousand, 350 thousand UAH and more than €1,700 in cash were found from the family. Law enforcement officers published photos from the suspects' house, in which the apartment is covered with banknotes.
The doctors were informed of suspicion of group extortion and receiving illegal benefits.
