In Mogilev, one married couple came up with a way to go to the store without money. The husband and wife developed a special plan.
It consisted of leaving a retail outlet with goods without paying for the purchase.
To put it simply, a family contract was organized to rob a store.
As reported by the press service of the Mogilev Regional Executive Committee's Internal Affairs Directorate on its official Telegram channel, an employee of one of the city's grocery stores filed a complaint with law enforcement officers.
According to him, goods worth approximately 1,000 rubles were stolen from the retail outlet.
The police found out who was behind the theft. It turned out that it was a married couple: a 36-year-old woman and her previously convicted 38-year-old husband.
The couple did not have money to buy alcohol and food, and they decided to take them away without paying, the report says.
The scheme was as follows: the lady chose what she liked, after which she put the products in the designated place.
The man approached the abandoned basket and, in several stages, quietly took away food and drinks.
Then the wife, pretending that she had not chosen anything, left the store empty-handed.
For their actions, the penniless couple earned a criminal case.
