october 7, 2022 through the checkpoint a volvo xc90 enters the warsaw bridge in belarus. customs officers paid attention to this car, because in the last six months alone it had crossed the belarusian-polish border five times, each time no goods were transported in it. the driver who was driving could not explain anything about this; the suspicion of customs officers was confirmed by the stationary inspection and inspection complex. an x-ray machine discovered a secret niche in the bottom of the car. later, the service dog indicated that there were drugs. inspectors found caches under
3:51 pm
the car seats and recovered almost 77 kg of gochish from them. when asked who the cargo belongs to, he is scared. the driver could not explain anything, and it seemed that he really did not know that he was transporting drug contraband. it was up to the operative investigators to identify the owner of the cargo, who began to clarify all the facts related to the international drug supply channel. this story began back in 2017, at the car market viktor cupich was choosing a car for himself,
3:52 pm
when suddenly his attention was attracted by a visitor from russia named maxim, who made a tempting offer to the man, he said that he could buy. victor gets a car at his own expense, but he will have to use it for specific work. the man was clearly interested. at the same time, maxim insisted that it was necessary to buy a volvo xc90, because this particular car was best suited for the upcoming work, cigarette smuggling. the car was purchased immediately by victor for a completely different person, a local resident. dobrinsky district is an old acquaintance of victor. evgeny goriglyat from the very beginning investigated a criminal case, ensured the planning of the investigation and carried out the most important investigative actions. to establish the number of episodes of drug trafficking across the border, i compared
3:53 pm
all the details of the case. to do this, i studied all the information about the telephone connections of the defendants, their crossings across the border, as well as all the data from mobile devices. interrogated 40 people as witnesses, after purchasing it, it was sent abroad to make hiding places in it, the car was immediately selected with an emphasis on the fact that that it is easiest to make hiding places in it, since cavities are structurally provided there for wiring the car’s audio system. after the purchase, the men agreed that the volvo should go to russia for pumping. maxim said they will finalize it there. they will make hatches in the bottom of the car for the niches through which the wiring passes. it was there that, according to the plan, the hiding place for transporting cigarettes was supposed to be located. under both front seats there are audio amplifiers, well, part of the car's audio system. gennady
3:54 pm
galinsky exercised procedural control over the progress of the criminal investigation, coordinated the actions of the investigator, and monitored the legality of the decision. and the wiring from these amplifiers is not laid, like in most cars, between metal and carpet, but it is laid between two layers of metal, that is, there are structural factory cavities, that’s the only thing that our craftsmen cut, made larger hatches. when a suitable car was purchased and... properly upgraded, everything was ready to smuggle cigarettes. maxim said, that it is necessary to purchase tobacco products in belarus and transport them to poland. but victor began to realize that something was clearly wrong here: there were too few cigarettes in the cache
3:55 pm
for both he and maxim to make money on them, and they still had to somehow recoup the money for the purchased volvo. later it happened. cigarette smuggling. it was just a test run before a serious matter, we started trying, 10 cartons of cigarettes fit in there, yeah, well, that is, i realized that this was not it, i explained, i called. to maxim, he said, well, try again, we tried once to start these cigarettes, we drove by, the second time we started trying to put 20 blocks there, they started to break, crash, packs were torn, that is, the blocks didn’t fit, etc., in short, we didn’t like this topic, and we left this topic for now, well, the car stopped. and covid just started, yeah, border closures, it passed somewhere, and so
3:56 pm
the car was there for a year and a half. all this time , the car was with victor’s son, dmitry, he used it for personal purposes and did not even know about the design features of this car. volvo no longer traveled to other countries, and could not, because of the pandemic all borders were closed, but after almost 2 years. the car came in handy again, maxim contacted victor and made a new offer. maxim called him on the phone again and said that there was a topic of making money, but he immediately explained to him that making money is not special, it is not legal. according to victor, he assumed that it was most likely not the cigarettes that would be bothered, but no one really told him anything on the phone... he said, again after some time he called again - this maxim said that the car
3:57 pm
it is necessary to expel him to the territory of poland, from belarus, which is what was actually done; in fact, this is the first episode of the criminal activities of victor kupic. by that time, victor had already realized that something forbidden would need to be brought back from europe in the car’s hiding places. he himself did not want to take risks, and therefore decided to involve his son, dmitry, who had been driving a volvo all this time, into the business. the guy recently returned from the army; he didn’t have time to get a job, so he really needed money. for criminal activities, he involved his son in the group, at that time twenty-three-year-old dmitry cupich, to whom he also explained that we would be carrying smoke, well, from words. pich dmitry , he already understood what they would do, since subsequently the money they
3:58 pm
received for transportation was disproportionate to the money that would be paid for smuggling ordinary cigarettes, they ask if there are any drivers, i say, well, i won’t, i’ll ask like, why, well, so that i can go there by car to poland, like, well, to europe, i’m like, well, i’ve already come, i called kostya my friend with childhood, what was kostya’s last name, bendel? i didn’t want to go abroad, and then he remembered his school friend konstantin.
3:59 pm
do i have a visa? i said, yes, there is a visa, and he invited me to go there, but i didn’t know what exactly would be there, but then he himself told me what was actually there, that there were narcotic substances, marijuana, in general for sale criminal intent, it took three people, that is, victor was involved. dmitry and gave instructions to involve another person who has a work visa, yeah, and who could move around territory of the european union countries. when the right person was found, all that was left was to transfer the volvo to poland, where konstantin bindel was supposed to get into it and go to holland; a random person was assigned to deliver the car to biała podlaski, who did not even know that he had become a part.
4:00 pm
they couldn’t move this car, so they simply asked to carry out the technical operation of importing the car, most often the mules became truckers, who agreed for 150 euros...
4:01 pm
he was used to it. he came to poland for bus, where he picked up the volvo and drove it to holland. after traveling through 10 countries, he arrived at his destination. there, at the service station, the car was supposed to be packed with drugs. but when the young man was there, an unexpected problem arose. he was unable to open the lids of the hiding places under the seats. to find out how the box was opened, i even had to call my counterfeiter in belarus. dmitry kupech called me and said he would show me everything on video, how it opens there. the front passenger and driver's seats moved back, under the chairs there were amplifiers for the audio system, which were removed and which subsequently served as lids for hiding places; a wire was connected to these lids, which
4:02 pm
served as a lever for opening, and the opening was also... specific, that is , you had to know specifically how to pull what , with what force to open the cache. often, when the car was packed with drugs, konstantin was not at esto. again he came only when everything was ready. the whole process took several hours. after packaging, the so-called bomb bay was always filled to capacity. the lids of the hiding places were closed again and the car was prepared for the trip. before... putting the drug in the car's hiding place, it was carefully packaged using a vacuum sealer. firstly, it compressed and reduced the size of the prohibited substance, which means that much more could be contained. and secondly, this sealed packaging minimized the chance that a sniffer dog would sniff out the drug at the border. that time
4:03 pm
, konstantin himself crossed the border in a car filled with drugs. carried 75. since this was the first time volvo had entered from poland belarus, it did not attract the attention of customs, and then the drug courier managed to transport the prohibited cargo, but konstantin found such a role too nervous, and he refused to transport drugs in the future, it was too risky. they agreed that he would take the volvo for loading and help dmitry cupich deliver drugs to st. petersburg. the first time they drove it, the man agreed, drove the car to brest, dmitry picks it up in brest, the car is already loaded with drugs, and dmitry leaves for the russian federation in the city of st. petersburg, where there is also a certain, specific place, this is a house at the address city of st. petersburg, street
4:04 pm
capsule highway 37, in this house, this house in general. assigned for short -term rental - that is, rent for a day or more, in this house there was a drug transshipment from one car to another, in st. petersburg people came to meet dmitry and konstantin to whom they were supposed to transfer the goods, from the russian side the liaison was toth the very maxim who bought the volvo. having reloaded the goods from one cars to another, the guys were paid for the work, and a large sum was given for the purchase of the next batch. according to the agreement, kostya was supposed to take the money to the european union, all in the same volvo, but for the future they decided to drive the car after loading to a safe place
4:05 pm
for subsequent shipment across the border. i went to rest, so he could do some work during this period of time. and the next day we left for st. petersburg, the amount of money was, in my opinion, 120,000 euros. the car was driven to europe, well, as a rule, bindel konstantin did this, yes, he drove the car without drugs, but with money, drove with large sums of money that he received in st. petersburg. well, decent amounts of several hundred thousand euros, he took this money to the netherlands, sometimes to belgium, left the car there, the car was loaded with narcotic drugs, then
4:06 pm
maxim, dmitry and his father, and the shares turned out to be unequal, bindel received the least, who... . did the most difficult work, cupich jr. took the most, and on the way from st. petersburg home he took a share and father - 3,000 euros, but in any case they were paid, and that is 3,00 euros, i said from this flight, so that i too, who is in such a figure of 3,00 euros, but because there is no, at first they said 10,000, the first since they said that they would give dimya, i say, it means that if 10, konstantin, you or i, transported
4:07 pm
money of about 300,000 euros from the russian federation to poland in transit through belarus, that is , they took their percentage from this money, that is, according to in advance, according to the previously discussed scheme, this is ridiculous money for such a large dangerous work, inspired. they didn’t successfully shelve the next flight; after a few months they organized the next delivery. volvo was again driven abroad by a front man. dmitry and konstantin went by bus. further everything follows the standard scheme. we drove the car ourselves to pack the cargo in holland and then went back to poland. only this time they decided to drive the car back to belarus with help.
4:08 pm
who could drive a car from poland to belarus, or from belarus to poland, since the car always went empty, which could attract the attention of customs officers during customs clearance, here, i decided to find, well, who will help me, who will help us in transporting this car, that is, the driver... or a truck driver or someone? i called lena, who lives in warsaw, she said: i have andrei, an acquaintance, a good truck driver, he can help, drive the car, she sent me
4:09 pm
a phone number, i called on this phone, called, offered andrei, told andrei: andrei, help me bend the car, i did it a ride to brest, he was just in brest, for this we gave him 150 or 200 euros. this man, this man, he was nothing, no one ’s acquaintance, no one knew him, he was found through an acquaintance in a polish forwarding company, that is, viktor cupich went to the forwarding company, he had some acquaintance there , a woman whom he called, said that in order to carry out such a simple procedure of moving cars from belopodlaski to brest, i needed a person who might be returning from poland to brest, she gave him the contact - so, well, they found this witness of ours, who, without suspecting anything, got behind the wheel of a car and ended up in such a mess. thus, random people, without knowing it themselves,
4:10 pm
transported more than 200 kg of drugs over three flights. all of them were identified and served as witnesses in the criminal case. in all these cases , drug trafficking worked according to the same pattern. the car was driven to poland either by a random driver. or bindel himself was driven around the european union by konstantin, in some cases with dmitry. in belgium or holland, volvo they were packed with drugs, and then the car was driven to poland, where it was waiting for another random driver. this business uses a technology of division of labor, that is, the one who packages the drug never gets behind the wheel. this was done by the criminals of the case consciously , deliberately, so that if...
4:11 pm
in total, from july 17 to october 7, 2022 , smugglers made five flights across the border; almost 380 kg of drugs were delivered from the european union to st. petersburg with the help of belarusians. the cost of these lots is the black market reaches about 4 million. euros, our defendants earned only 4,000, while almost all the work was done by bindel cupich jr. cupich sr. supervised deliveries, negotiated, and looked for random drivers to transport cargo across the border. my father is in charge of everything, he organized all these movements, all these downloads,
4:12 pm
apparently. carried out, unloadings were also under control, loading, unloading of what, well, as i already understood narcotic substances, we understand approximately how it worked, yes, but to say, that the key organizer is right in russia , yes, well, well, probably not, that is, there is someone who organizes this business, let’s say, in morocco, yes, direct production, yes, cultivation, land reclamation, irrigation there, everything else, yes, there is someone who orders from there, someone. is responsible for transportation across the mediterranean sea, and to spain , someone who packs between, that’s why i believe that it is such, well, it’s probably still correct to say it’s a conglomerate, and there are simply interests for certain zones, well, taking into account the fact that the end point was st. petersburg, we simply come to the conclusion that there were customers there for distribution in russia; during the fifth delivery, bindel himself
4:13 pm
drove the volvo from... with him several hundred thousand euros from st. petersburg partners for a new batch. this time in holland, almost 77 kg of goshish were packed into a car. next, konstantin drives the car to belopodlyaska and leaves it at the appointed place. i left for poland by car three times and went there, loaded, i drove back and left the podlas in byalo.
4:14 pm
car across the border, the truck driver agreed for 150 euros. he picked up the car in the same parking lot where bindel had left it. there were no questions at the polish border, but belarusian customs officers paid attention to the volvo, which by that time had already crossed the border for the fifth time in six months, almost always with a new driver. next, the car was sent for x-rays. where customs officers installed a cavity in the bottom of the car, which accordingly should not exist. the car is driven into an in-depth box inspection, where they begin to remove the casing, technical components to check the cavity. when removing the front seats and removing the amplifiers , two hatches of one hiding place were installed. brest customs officers at the
4:15 pm
brest checkpoint. 95 briquettes of the dangerous narcotic drug hashish would have been identified, which were transported with concealment to residents of the city of brest. we found 77 kg in a car hidden from customs control. the customs officers had to find out who the cargo actually belonged to, because from the first signs it was clear that the driver had no history of drugs no relation.
