7:13 am
7:14 am
the investigation into the case of the criminal group lyudmila kim lasted several months; the attackers were accused of attempting to smuggle parts of especially valuable wild animals, firearms and ammunition, perfect... the total cost of this contraband, which is over 20 million rubles. is there anything to risk? yes, of course, but the money they would receive abroad is many times more, because on the black market it is valued much more highly. the verdict of the khankaisky district court of the primorsky territory turned out to be very harsh. foreigners, man galyan, liu-lyudong and jen yuntang, went to a general regime colony for 4 years and 10 months,
7:15 am
but in relation to lyudmila kim, themis turned out to be more lenient, the woman was sent for imprisonment for 3 years, in addition, kim was ordered to pay a fine of 1.3000 rubles. at, let’s say, criminal gatherings there, yes, if people with a certain... in the criminal world from the far east came to the european part of russia, then , accordingly, the rule of good form was to present a skin as a gift, and or there kostya, also western partners and
7:16 am
started several years ago. it turned out that kim still lives in the same house, on the outskirts of usuriysk. next to the gate is a silver toyota prius. it’s impossible to enter the yard, a dog tied to a fence rushes at us and barks deafeningly. but then a man in oriental appearance comes out of a cabin located next to the house and says that he will now invite the hostess. soon a small elderly woman appears on the street, as it turns out, this is lyudmila’s mother, she introduces herself as nadezhda danilovna kim, we are making documentaries, we wanted to talk to lyuda, we know that she was accused of such a serious, unusual crime, she even sat in prison colonies, no way, no way, yes, you can tell us about this, why no way
7:17 am
, everyone says that she sold the paws of tigers, bears, that... she had to go to her birthday party, she dressed up and went out, she was caught, only you will be driving, i heard that . according to nadezhda danilovna, kim , her daughter did not have any specific profession, but she never sat idly by, either selling fish, or engaging in real estate transactions, about the paws of tigers and bears, these are all
7:18 am
slander, i i think there’s no point in this at all? or i don’t know, i say, but 3 years like this yes, 3 years have passed, i was suffering alone, now, according to nadezhda danilovna, her daughter is unemployed, has a criminal record, they are not taking her anywhere to somehow get by, they are renting out a room, more precisely, this room is a long barn with windows and air conditioning, while we were talking with the eldest kim, men kept looking out from there, suddenly a light minibus stopped next to us. san siren, a short woman in black sunglasses came out of the salon and walked towards us with a confident step, it was impossible to make a mistake, this is all the way to lyudmila kim, the woman immediately went on the attack , what’s happening again, hello, hello, hello, this is a russian tv channel, they came
7:19 am
to visit you, why, they wanted to talk to you, why, well, if it’s possible, it’s impossible. why? firstly, i didn’t give permission to film, well, we ’re actually on the street, there’s nothing wrong here, we were just talking nicely, i didn’t give permission, well, i’m not asking for your permission, so that at least somehow... then to talk to the stern brunette, we had to directly and clearly explain to her why we were here we arrived and what goal we are pursuing, only then did the woman agree to voice her position on the criminal case, i understand correctly that everything that... the border guards are telling us about, you don’t agree with it, well, you partially disagree, which means partially, that is there were skins, there were paws, but they weren’t mine, that is, you had nothing to do with this, no, because your mother just told you that you were driving to someone’s birthday party, you were asked to drive, well, yes, very often they asked me to drive before, so i went,
7:20 am
in general, i transported, only transported. in the first half of 2020, due to the coronavirus pandemic, land communication with the neighboring state almost completely
7:21 am
ceased. tourists and shuttle traders, among whom there were periodically those wishing to transport illegal cargo, were deprived of the opportunity to travel abroad. so, that means smuggling no longer exists. border control officers barely answer this question. with a hidden grin, this is business, good business, business that brings in a lot of money, so people who are engaged in smuggling, they are not stopped either by the pandemic or by the deadlines that are assigned by the court. since the beginning of the pandemic , several new unofficial names have come into use among the far eastern border guards and customs officers, one of them: runner, this is the name of a person who is trying to cross illegally across the border with smuggled cargo. runners, as a rule, are citizens of a neighboring state;
7:22 am
for some reason they are confident that they will be able to overcome not only the control strip undetected, but also deceive engineering and technical means with which the state border is equipped. in the twentieth year, we... came across such a new method, when citizens of neighboring states tried to move objects - directly across the state border of the russian federation, this was in the khasan region and the sub-suri region, that is, just run across, just take, roughly speaking, a backpack, dress and go to places known only to them. in vladivostok we managed to find the following runners: song jun-gui and fei yoshua. they tried to smuggle across the border of the russian federation a large
7:23 am
shipment of saiga horns. this animal can be considered unique, it appeared 50-70.00 years ago, saw the era of mammoths and has survived to this day, but such a long history does not help it survive. in the modern world, the species is considered endangered, so fei joshua literally fled at night towards the border, thought to slip through, but naturally they were detained and subsequently convicted, now both men have been released and are waiting for the opportunity to return home. what exactly did you do, why were
7:24 am
you detained, what were you trying to endure? i wanted transfer contraband goods, deer antlers from russia. i very much regret the crime committed on russian territory and will never do such a thing. i came to russia in march 2019, i wanted to travel, how did it happen that your journey ended in prison. i arrived
7:25 am
and met with my friend, we discussed the issues of moving contraband from russia. how much money did they promise you to carry the horns across the border? the friend did not promise to pay for this, he said that later he would definitely help me get a job. you're sorry about what happened? i really regret that i did all this, and i will definitely tell my friends that it is not worth engaging in such activities.
