A businesswoman was detained in Prykarpattia: she was selling permits for weapons for bribes

A female entrepreneur was discovered in Prykarpattia, who was trading weapon permits, promising buyers to obtain documents with fictitious data. The criminal used her influence over officials who issued such permits and was ready to provide anyone wishing with dangerous weapons.

Law enforcement has already brought charges against her for abuse of influence and document forgery. The day before, this woman received 17,800 hryvnias for a permit for a pistol without the necessary documents. The issue of a preventive measure of house arrest is currently being resolved.

Searches and actions of law enforcement

The Prosecutor's Office of Ivano-Frankivsk region noted that she has been charged with articles of the Criminal Code, and this is far from the first case of law violations in the region.

Criminal activities in the region not only harm society but also undermine trust in state institutions. It is necessary to strictly punish those who violate the law and encourage others to commit crimes.
