In the Bashtanka district<\/strong>, a 28-year-old<\/strong> woman, according to the Bashtanka District Police Department<\/strong>, sold a relative someone else\u2019s faulty car for 3,000 hryvnias<\/strong>. She convinced the buyer that the car belonged to her.<\/p>\n

The car was parked in the yard of an unoccupied house, where its owner had left it. The woman had access to the property and knew that the car\u2019s owner was not in Mykolaiv<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

She told her relative that she had a right to the car because the owner had supposedly repaid a debt to her with it. The man agreed to buy it and towed the faulty car to his home. The woman had already received part of the agreed amount.<\/p>\n

The owner filed a police report on November 3<\/strong>. The search lasted several hours: during that time, law enforcement officers found the car and identified the woman involved in its disappearance.<\/p>\n

She was notified that she is suspected of an offense under Part 2 of Article 289 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine<\/strong>. The penalty under this provision can be up to eight years<\/strong> in prison, with or without confiscation of property.<\/p>\n

The car was seized. The owner will get it back once the necessary procedures are complete. The court is expected to decide on a preventive measure for the suspect soon, while the pre-trial investigation is ongoing.<\/p>\n
