Citizen K.E. filed a complaint with the Ministry of Internal Affairs, stating that two unfamiliar women deceitfully took possession of his funds.
From February to October 2024, "R.A." and "K" met with the victim in various locations, promising to help him purchase apartments and cars at reduced prices, as a result of which they fraudulently obtained 90,000 US dollars.
