Border crossing scheme involving forged documents uncovered in Odesa
Law enforcement authorities have exposed an illegal border crossing scheme in Odesa, involving conscripts using fake disability certificates, Ukraine’s State Border Guard Service reported.
A 50-year-old resident of Odesa was producing fake certificates for money.
Investigators also found that she had an accomplice who helped her find new "clients."
The woman charged $11,000 for her services. The upfront fee was $700, with $5,800 being paid upon receipt of the documents, and another $4,500 paid on arrival in Moldova.
The suspect was caught red-handed while receiving a second payment and promptly detained.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
