During the pre-trial investigation in the proceedings under Part 1 of Art. 309 of the Criminal code of Ukraine it was proved that the man kept synthetic opioid.
Police confiscated drugs from the offender on the street. The citizen was clearly nervous, and as it turned out, it was not in vain: according to the expert, the package seized from him contained methadone.
«The defendant was informed about the suspicion of illegal possession of drugs without the purpose of sale,» said the acting Chief of the Izmail Police Department Serhiy Pavlov. — The necessary investigative actions have been completed and the indictment has been sent to court. According to the current legislation, the accused can be fined from one thousand to three thousand non-taxable minimum incomes or correctional labor for up to two years, or arrest for up to six months, or restriction of liberty for up to five years.
