The chief of police extorted a bribe from the auto inspector: the price tag is 2 million

As it became known “MK”, in an unpleasant situation got the inspector of the battalion of road patrol service traffic police of the North-Eastern district of the capital. Once in his spare time, he was in Noginsk, together with a friend came to the store for a beer. There was a conflict with another buyer. During the quarrel, the guard struck the opponent with a bottle on the head, causing him injury. The next morning, a police officer arrived. Realizing that he would be charged with a crime, the guardian of the law went to an appointment with the acting head of one of the police departments of Noginsk. The auto inspector asked if it was possible to resolve the issue amicably without initiating a criminal case. The sheriff announced the bribe amount – 2 million rubles. The visitor realized that he could not find such money, and went to the FSB. He was provided with the necessary equipment. On his next visit to the police chief, the police officer said he had collected only 200,000. This conversation was already recorded, and the cautious boss, anticipating a trick, searched the bribe-taker, but did not find the equipment. Then he repeated that only 2 million can save the bully from prosecution. The second meeting took place in the sheriff's car, near the city park. The policeman put the money (mostly in the pack were dummy) in the glove compartment. Shortly thereafter, the bribe-taker was detained.

Noginsky court sentenced the chief of police to 8.5 years in prison and deprived of the title of captain. The appeal instance of the Moscow court, where the convict complained, upheld the sentence.
