An unusual robbery occurred in Moscow: the criminals not only stole money from the entrepreneur’s apartment, but also forced him to apologize on camera to a woman he knew.

According to REN TV, on May 11, in the east of the capital, three people in camouflage rang the doorbell to an apartment and, when the owner opened it, sprayed gas from a can into his face and hit him on the head. Next, the criminals tied the victim hand and foot and showed him a bag of some powder, saying that if he “rocks the boat somewhere,” he will face criminal charges. Next, they put a stun gun on the man’s groin and forced him to record a video of repentance.

“Valya, forgive me, please, I will never call or write to you again,” the man said into the camera as instructed.

According to sources, “it was about the businessman’s former mistress.”

It is known that the criminals then took 898 thousand rubles from the businessman’s apartment and fled, but on May 15, two of them were detained. REN indicates that an investigation has begun and the issue of initiating a criminal case is being decided.
