Law enforcement officers have successfully dismantled a drug cartel that illegally manufactured and sold psychotropic substances, Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko announced.
The large-scale operation involved more than 230 searches in 20 regions of Ukraine, leading to the detention of more than 60 criminals. According to Klymenko, law enforcement officers also dismantled 19 drug laboratories that were producing almost a ton of amphetamine and Alpha-PVP every month.
The criminal group's income, according to the minister, amounted to over 350 million hryvnias per month, which indicates the enormous scale of their activities.
