Kiev police in Ukraine cracked a kidnapping and murder case for robbing a foreign man of his cryptocurrency
On July 30th, according to the Ukrainian police, the Kiev police solved a heinous kidnapping and murder case. Four men between the ages of 24 and 29 carefully planned to kidnap a foreign man, steal his cryptocurrency worth about 7 million hryvnias (about 170,000 US dollars), and then kill him and bury his body in the woods.The incident occurred at midnight, when residents of the Solomensky district of Kiev heard a man's cry for help and saw several men beating and forcibly dragging him into a car. The police immediately launched a special operation in Kiev and its surrounding areas. With meticulous investigation and the cooperation of special forces, they successfully arrested all suspects.The investigation showed that the criminals knew in advance that the victim had about 7 million hryvnias worth of bitcoin and decided to take it for themselves. They tracked the victim's residence and attacked him on his way home, forcibly taking him to an abandoned building in the Kiev region, forcing him to transfer the bitcoin to their cryptocurrency wallet, and then killing him and burying him in the woods.During the search, the police seized cash, vehicles, and other physical evidence obtained by the criminals. The Kiev police investigated this case based on four articles of the Ukrainian criminal law, including murder, robbery, illegal detention, and covering up the crime. All suspects were charged with crimes and detained by the court without bail. If convicted, they will face life imprisonment.
