Police detained members of a suspected criminal group that allegedly demanded $1 million and planned to seize a victim’s real estate, according to a police weekly roundup. Authorities said the group’s scheme involved pressuring the victim for the cash payment while aiming to take control of property. In a separate case, police detained a deputy battalion commander, an officer in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, who allegedly drew police attention after receiving 20% of the reward for destroying enemy equipment. The arrests were presented as part of the police’s reported results from the week, with officers describing the detentions as cases linked to extortion and illegal enrichment tied to war-related claims.
