In Kyiv, a man "buried" his mother to extort 160,000 hryvnias from his cohabitant. Can such actions be considered fraud and what are the possible legal consequences for the organizer?
I learned about a case where a man faked his mother's death to extort money from his roommate, and then stole her appliances. I wonder if he will be held responsible for stealing the appliances if he is already suspected of fraud?
I recently learned about a case where a woman pretending to be a lawyer swindled two citizens out of 70,000 hryvnias. This raised the question of how I can be sure of the qualifications of the lawyer I entrust with my cases. Is there a mechanism for verifying the qualifications of a lawyer to avoid such situations?
