In Vladimir, the woman took from pensioners almost 2 million rubles

The Prosecutor’s office of the city of Vladimir sent to the Oktyabrsky district court a criminal case against a 43-year-old resident of the Ryazan region. She is accused of two episodes of fraud committed by an organized group on a large scale (part 4 of article 159 of the criminal code).

According to investigators, the woman performed the role of a courier in a criminal group. Her accomplices called citizens all over Russia, posing as law enforcement officers and banks. Under the pretext of protecting funds from “fraudsters”, they persuaded pensioners to declare their savings.

The accused, acting on the instructions of the curators, came to the addresses of the victims and took cash. In July this year, two pensioners were stolen money in the amount of almost 1.9 million rubles. The perpetrator kept some of the money, and gave the rest to the organizers.

In respect of the accused, an indictment has been approved, the case is sent for consideration to the court.
