Law enforcement officers stopped the activities of an organized criminal group that sold drugs through an online store in the territory of the Poltava, Sumy and Kirovohrad regions. Among the products offered: amphetamine, methamphetamine, PVP salts, cannabis, ecstasy, mephedron and methadone.

"Banned substances were sold by bookmarking, and larger batches were sent by mail, disguising them in things that did not arouse suspicion among post office employees. The monthly profit from criminal activities brought accomplices more than half a million hryvnias," the report says.

The police detained the attackers and informed them of suspicion. The defendants face up to 12 years in prison.

In addition, according to the Department of internal security, the proceedings will provide a legal assessment of the actions of individual employees of one of the law enforcement agencies who may have been related to the group's activities.
