In Rivne police detained a 32-year-old man who in April last year fraudulently obtained over 106,000 hryvnias from nine people by offering loans on the Internet with the condition of paying an insurance premium.
This was reported by the Main Directorate of the National Police in the Rivne region.
The police identified the perpetrator and detained him in a rented apartment. During the search, law enforcement officers seized six SIM cards, three mobile phones, eight bank cards, a laptop and a Wi-Fi router.
The perpetrator was informed of suspicion under Parts 1 and 2 of Article 190 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (fraud). The court chose for him a preventive measure in the form of house arrest. After the completion of the pre-trial investigation, the case materials were sent to the court.
The court issued a sentence of one year in prison, but it has not yet entered into force and can be appealed within 30 days. The 32-year-old man is also accused of other frauds, and a new preventive measure in the form of detention was chosen for him.
