In Krasnoyarsk, a wholesale drug dealer was detained for leaving the goods in a rented apartment in the Leninsky district.
A woman who was renting out housing to a young girl contacted the police. After she moved out, the owner discovered a 250-gram package with a suspicious substance in the closet. Plaw enforcement officers seized him and sent for research, which established that it was a synthetic drug.
The tenant was found and similar packages of drugs, electronic scales and packaging material were also found at her new address.
“Operatives found out that a 21-year-old girl with no previous convictions came to Krasnoyarsk from Kurgan to engage in criminal business. The attacker received the drugs in a contactless manner, then packaged them into smaller quantities and placed them in hiding places. Operatives identified the locations and seized prohibited substances,” the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs said.
The total weight of the seized drugs was about 2.5 kilograms.
The girl was taken into custody and a criminal case was opened against her under Part 5 of Art. 228.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation “Illegal sale of narcotic substances in especially on a large scale”, the sanction of which provides for imprisonment for a term of up to 20 years.
