The Sarny city prosecutor was arrested for "protecting" amber mining operations.

crimeThe prosecutor of the city of Sarny in the Rivne region was detained by operatives as part of the special operation "Yantar." Arsen Avakov announced this on Facebook.

According to the Minister of Internal Affairs, National Police operatives, together with the Prosecutor General's Office and the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), detained the Sarny city prosecutor and two other organizers of illegal amber mining in the region. Avakov emphasized that thanks to the "painstaking" work of investigators from the Military Prosecutor's Office, the Prosecutor General's Office, and the National Police, they managed to detain a high-ranking official involved in organizing an illegal amber mining scheme in the Rivne region.
