MARCH 20, 2001 
Tax Officers of Saratovskaya Oblast Arrested a Man with 7 kg of Gold
Precious metal is expected to be stolen from defence enterprises of Oblast.
Main suspect of illegal gemstone turnover case was arrested near his own house. The detention operation took several seconds only, he could not guess why there were federal officers in the private taxi car he has ordered. Officers found 7 kg of gold and uncut diamonds. Usually the most difficult in such a case to prove the guilt but now the evidence is ample.
A year ago such crimes were not under the jurisdiction of tax police but now they think they will be able to block illegal jewellery and precious metal turnover. At the moment there are several crime groups that are disclosed.
