"MK": the gang of Tsapka covered the UKP

The organized criminal group of Sergei Tsapka, suspected of killing 12 people in the village of Kushchevskaya, covered not only the police, but all the local law enforcement agencies - from the prosecutor's office to the SCP, writes the Moscow Komsomolets. In confirmation of this, the publication was published by a letter sent to the Krasnodar department of the SCP by the former head of the Department of Internal Affairs of the Kushchevsky district Pavel Kornienko. The letter describes the structure of organized crime groups in detail, the leaders of the gang and its participants are listed. The document describes the crimes that the group committed, and also appears a list of cars used in the gang.

The certificate contains information on 9 criminal cases related to murders, cases of hooliganism and arson. Including we are talking about the murder of a local resident of Skokov and the attempt on the Stanichnik Nevzorov in Kushchevskaya in the summer of 1995, as well as the murder of Alexander Ivanov in September 1998, pogroms organized by a gang in the fall of 2000 on the Nardegin farm. All things were later closed.

As the then chief of police points out in the certificate, the criminal group is prone to committing serious crimes - such as extortion, robberies, murders, causing serious harm to health, hooliganism, and rape. Pavel Kornienko served as chief of police from 1991 to 2001.
