In Orenburg, criminal investigation officers stopped a criminal transaction.
A local resident planned to sell his one-and-a-half-year-old son for 1.5 million rubles.
During the investigation it was established that the child's father was negotiating with a potential buyer.
The perpetrator wanted to sell the child who lived with him, says Irina Volk, the official representative of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs, in her Telegram channel.
A few days ago, the child's father negotiated the sale of a one-and-a-half-year-old boy whose mother was serving a sentence.
The police, having verified the information received, detained the suspect.
The man was arrested while receiving money.
The detainee was taken to the investigative authorities. A procedural decision is being prepared regarding the offender.
