The father of a deceased SVO soldier was defrauded of almost 5 million rubles: the messenger received a real sentence.
In the Krasnoyarsk Territory, a court gave 5 years in prison to a fraudulent courier who defrauded the father of a deceased military man.
Last fall, a resident of Bogotul buried his son. He deposited the payments he received in the bank with interest, and this year fraudsters came after him. They convinced the man to transfer all the money "for safekeeping".
After that, a 27-year-old messenger came to the man, took the money and disappeared.
As it turned out from the investigation, the courier was involved in defrauding other residents of the Krasnoyarsk territory: he also took 41.6 thousand dollars from another person, after which he was arrested.
In court, the courier pleaded guilty, although he denied that he knew about the contents of the packages being transported. The court found him guilty of fraud and sent him to a general regime colony for five years. So far, only 150 thousand rubles of the stolen money have been returned to the father of the deceased serviceman.
