In the Altai Territory, a recidivist was sent to a colony for a series of thefts from stores

According to the press service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia in the Altai Territory, at the stage of the investigation, the interrogators of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Biyskoe proved the involvement of a 31-year-old local resident in a series of thefts from stores. So, according to law enforcement officers, the man acted according to a well-established scheme: he entered the shopping halls under the guise of a buyer, took the goods from the shelves and hid it under his clothes, after which he walked past the cash register. In one case, a man carried a 12-pound piece of cheese under his jacket.

He sold stolen goods through his proven channels: he sold dairy products to street pavilions for shawarma preparation, sold stolen chocolate bars to random passers-by, and left alcohol for himself.

Since the beginning of this year, the courts have considered three criminal cases against him, which included 52 episodes of theft. When considering the first judge assigned the thief mandatory work. The second time the attacker got away with a suspended sentence. However, despite two convictions, he did not stop and continued to steal food.

Having considered the materials of the next criminal case initiated by interrogators under Article 158 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, the court sentenced the recidivist to imprisonment for a term of 2.5 years in a strict regime colony.
