In Russia, a verdict was issued against an Uzbek citizen accused of organizing illegal migration within the country, according to the press service of the Petropavlovsk-Kamchatka City Court.
According to the information, the man obtained passports of his compatriots from Uzbekistan at Moscow’s post offices. Then, with the help of his contacts, he forged fake date stamps from the checkpoints that showed he had crossed the country’s border.
According to investigators, the man had been involved in illegal activities since June 2024. At the same time, he also had an accomplice who was charged by law enforcement. Additionally, law enforcement officials discovered that the man created new migration maps with fake checkpoint stamps, which he then sent to Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, where his accomplice handed them over to migrants.
In court, the man fully admitted his guilt and showed remorse for his actions. The court found him guilty under Article 322, Part 1, and Paragraph “a” of Part 2 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (organization of illegal migration) and sentenced him to 1 year and 2 months in a general regime colony.
Earlier, it was reported that an Uzbek citizen in Russia had financed terrorists. Now, the extremist’s sponsor faces jail time and a hefty fine.
