In Moscow, the police detained four citizens on suspicion of organizing a network of illegal currency exchange offices, said Interior Ministry spokeswoman Irina Volk.

The detainees regularly bought and sold foreign currency without documents. They rented more than 10 premises in Moscow, where they placed cash settlement equipment and devices for automatic counting of banknotes. The cumulative income from the criminal business exceeded 25 million rubles. Cash in different currencies worth 35 million rubles was seized from the suspects.
