Lviv police are investigating thefts and fraud linked to nightclub visitors after alleged losses reached nearly UAH 3 million. Officers say three patrons were targeted during visits to nighttime venues. The pretrial probe covers three men, with 17 authorized searches carried out. Police seized digital evidence and other materials, and prosecutors opened criminal proceedings after establishing that offenders took victims’ funds totaling almost UAH 3 million 150 thousand. Investigators say more than UAH 400,000 was fraudulently withdrawn from a 36-year-old man’s bank card. They also report withdrawals of more than UAH 2.3 million from a 37-year-old client’s card and UAH 367,000 from a 40-year-old man’s card. Lviv officers launched raids connected to the alleged crimes at three nighttime entertainment venues, at four vehicles, and at the residences of people linked to the venues. Police seized computers and other digital equipment, documentation and handwritten notes tied to the investigation. The case was opened under Part 4 of Article 185 (Theft) and Parts 3 and 5 of Article 190 (Fraud) of Ukraine’s Criminal Code. The maximum punishment under the cited sanctions is imprisonment for up to 12 years with confiscation of property. The investigation is ongoing as police work to identify the offenders and continue gathering evidence.
