Entrepreneur from Lesnoy faces criminal case for repeat sale of counterfeit alcohol
The police investigation uncovered the sale of alcohol lacking quality documentation.
At one of the stores in the village of Lesnoy, a 60-year-old entrepreneur sold alcoholic beverages without a license. For the repeated instance of illegal trade, a criminal case was opened against the woman, according to the regional MVD department.
Police had previously held the woman administratively liable for selling alcohol without a license, but the illegal trade did not stop.
Police found that the alcoholic beverages sold repeatedly by the perpetrator lacked proper documentation, including proof of product quality.
A police investigator initiated a criminal case against the entrepreneur — she faces a fine ranging from 50,000 to 80,000 rubles (approximately $500 to $800 at current rates), or corrective labor for a period of 1 year.
