Foundry production at the plant stopped because of two young men who stole a batch of nickel from the plant.
The young men worked at "AvtoZAZ" for a short time, one was even listed as an intern. During this time, they devoted maximum attention to studying the secure warehouse where nickel for foundry production was stored. And they found a hole in the access regime inside. Not much time passed, and 200 kilograms of expensive non-ferrous metal left the warehouse. The men carefully packed the batch into small bags and quietly transported them outside the enterprise territory. Since finding a buyer was not difficult, soon the perpetrators were already dividing the proceeds.
And the profit turned out to be considerable. Since nickel is a fairly rare metal. According to the investigation, the criminal couple received about 15 thousand hryvnias. At the same time, the perpetrators effectively paralyzed the operation of the enterprise's foundry production. After all, nickel is constantly used in the casting technological process as small additives.
Criminal investigation officers managed to track down the perpetrators after a thorough check of all enterprise employees who had access to the nickel storage facility. A criminal case has been opened. The pre-trial investigation in the case continues, and after its completion the perpetrators will appear before the court.
