According to the Police, the 54-year-old suspect, in 2001, together with other people, attacked four men from Grigoriopol. The fight allegedly broke out because the men refused to pay the $5,000 annual protection fee. Law enforcement officials say they had been in conflict for several years.

Thus, following the beating, a man died, and the suspect was sentenced to 17 years in prison.

He was extradited with the involvement of INI officers.
