Police conducted searches of the members of “White Brotherhood” who were distributing drugs throughout Ukraine in Nikopol, Dnipropetrovsk region, as Vyacheslav Abroskin, First Deputy Chairman of the National Police, reported on his Facebook page.
“The police officers “visited” the “brigades” with searches and rank-and-file members of a criminal gang “White Brotherhood” which “focuses” on production and distribution of drugs throughout the state,” the message says.
Additionally, Abroskin stated that the leader of the brotherhood nicknamed Yatsyk was arrested in Zhytomyr for organizing contract murder in early August.
“Yatsyk’s favorite words during any detention: “Draw any figure you like and you’ll have everything”. But it didn’t work,” he wrote.
