On November 24, the press service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia for the Krasnodar Territory reported the detention of two suspects in a fraud case in Anapa. Among those detained are a 20-year-old citizen of Kyrgyzstan and a 19-year-old young man from Rostov-on-Don.

The investigation believes that both criminals were part of an organized crime group and caused a pensioner to lose 6 million rubles. This amount was the proceeds from the sale of real estate, which the pensioner withdrew from his bank account, intending to deposit it into a "safe account." According to police information, the suspects then converted the stolen money into cryptocurrency.

Criminal proceedings have been initiated against the detainees under Part 4 of Article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, concerning fraud committed by an organized group on a large scale. They could face up to 10 years in prison. The investigation is ongoing, during which other possible participants in the crime are being identified.
