Two brothers from Moldova were accused of drug trafficking

In the Khabarovsk Territory, two brothers from Moldova are suspected of drug trafficking. This was reported on July 1 in the press service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia in the Khabarovsk Territory.

According to the investigation, the defendants acted on the instructions of an acquaintance to whom they owed a large sum of money in July last year.

"Currently, the investigation of the criminal case initiated under Part 2 of Article 228.3, Part 2 of Article 228.4, Part 5 of Article 228.1, Part 3 of Article 30 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation has been completed.
