Two men wanted to illegally cross the border and used the services of an anonymous Telegram channel.
The Mukachevo detachment detained two men who were trying to reach the border with Hungary with an inflatable boat. The detainees turned out to be residents of Kyiv and Uzhgorod.
This was reported by the State Border Service.
As it turned out, both men wanted to cross the border illegally and used the services of an anonymous channel in one of the messengers.
Each of them paid $10,000. For this money, they received a route, a rubber boat, the cylinders of which were sealed with ordinary light bulbs, and one plywood oar to swim across the Tisza.
Regarding the offenders, protocols were drawn up for an administrative offense under Art. 204-1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of Ukraine (illegal crossing or attempted illegal crossing of the state border of Ukraine).
Currently, operatives are establishing the circle of persons involved in organizing the illegal journey of the men.
