Thus, a social worker contacted the duty officer of the territorial police department. She clarified that a crime had been committed against her ward—a woman born in 1941—on the night of August 14.
After analyzing the information received, as well as those capable of such acts, the detectives tracked down the homegrown "gangsters." It turned out that these individuals had run out of funds to continue their celebration of life. The criminal pair decided to visit a familiar grandmother. To ensure the pensioner would not recognize the criminals, they fashioned homemade balaclavas from pants.
The victim did not lock the front door, as she cannot take care of herself and relies on social workers for assistance. The robbers took advantage of this circumstance. Once inside the home, one of them struck the pensioner on the head. Then, under the threat of violence and arson, the uninvited guests stole the cash that the owner had.
— An important detail that helped the operatives in the search for the crooks was a cross with an icon and tattoos in the form of stars on the chest of one of the attackers. The miscreants turned out to be previously convicted and unemployed citizens Gryaznov and Zheldak. The investigative department of the Tavda police has opened a criminal case regarding the robbery. Representatives of the Ministry of Internal Affairs are checking the suspects for other episodes of criminal activity, noted Colonel Gorelykh.
