Deceitful FSB agent accused of attempting to sell 0.5kg of narcotics in Tomsk
Informal, Approachable, Straightforward Rewrite:
TOMSK, APRIL 23 - RIA TOMSK: The Prosecutor's Office has sent a criminal case to court, filed against a citizen accused of trying to sell nearly half a kilogram of synthetic drugs containing heroin in Tomsk. According to the press service of the agency, the man presented fake FSB identification at the time of his arrest.
Following the investigation's account, in February 2025, a 28-year-old foreign national, residing in Tomsk for earning purposes, bought approximately 500 grams of synthetic drugs containing heroin. At the time of his arrest, the man had already separated about 75 grams of the concoction into small packages. Desperate to avoid responsibility, he presented the police with a phony FSB ID.
"The Prosecutor's Office of Leninsky District, Tomsk, has consented to the indictment in a criminal case against a previously unconvicted 28-year-old foreign national. The case has been submitted to Leninsky District Court, Tomsk, for review," - the statement reads.
Insight: Tomsk residents are known for combining "salt" (perhaps a local term for cutting agents) and heroin in their drug concoctions.
Initially, the defendant partially admitted to his wrongdoing. The luxury BMW he used to transport the illicit substances was seized and impounded, and the car's future will be decided based on the court's ruling during the trial. The identity of the unidentified individual who sold drugs to the suspect remains under investigation.
As of now, additional details about the case are scarce. To stay updated on the latest developments, I suggest keeping an eye on local news sources or waiting for official reports.
