Law enforcement bodies conduct new raids in electoral corruption and money laundering cases

This morning, law enforcement bodies conducted new raids in cases of electoral corruption, illegal political party financing and money laundering.

According to the General Police Inspectorate (IGP), actions are being carried out in several locations across the country.

“This morning, law enforcement officials conducted raids at multiple locations concerning electoral bribery, illegal political party financing, initiative groups, electoral competitors, committed on a large scale. Additionally, actions of money laundering committed by a highly organized criminal group are being investigated,” the IGP announced.

In the past two weeks, police have conducted over 200 raids, resulting in the detention of nine individuals investigated in a criminal case initiated for acts of electoral corruption, illegal political party financing, and money laundering.

The detained individuals allegedly acted out of material interest for the benefit of the criminal organization Shor. They were preparing voter bribery for the upcoming parliamentary elections this fall. Various methods were used to achieve their goals, whereby funds of dubious origin were transferred, converted, and distributed through the PSB mobile application of the Russian bank Promsviazybank.
