According to the investigation, the 17-year-old boy, along with his friends - a guy and a girl aged 18 and 23 - got a job in a drug shop as mortgagers. According to the instructions of the curators, they took large consignments of drugs, packed them into small doses and made "treasures" on the territory of Baranovichi. As a report on the work done, they sent photos with the coordinates of the caches.

“When the young people received another task: to take psychotropes from the cache and decompose them in the city, they came to the area indicated by the curator, where they were detained by police officers,” the Investigative Committee said. During a personal search, the mortgagers found almost 500 grams of a particularly dangerous psychotropic substance alpha-PVP, and in mobile phones — correspondence with the owners of a drug store and photos with the coordinates of the caches.

According to the results of the investigation, the defendants were charged under Part 4 of Art. 328 (illegal acquisition and storage of particularly dangerous psychotropic substances on a large scale, committed by an organized group) of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Belarus. With the sanction of the prosecutor, a preventive measure in the form of detention was applied to them.
