Employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation have discovered the country's largest drug laboratory in the Moscow region. This was reported by RIA Novosti, referencing an official representative of the Ministry.

The "factory" was located in a former agricultural area in the Serpukhov district. There were chemical reactors, each worth between 200,000 and 500,000 rubles, used for processing components intended for synthetic drugs.

Irina Volk, a representative of the Ministry, stated that the organized crime group sold the illegal substances through online stores hidden in the shadowy corners of the network. As a result of the special operation, police uncovered 18 deliveries to Novosibirsk, Tver, Vladimir, Kursk, Kaluga, Arkhangelsk, as well as Tatarstan, Buryatia, Khabarovsk, and Primorsky Krai.

In total, more than 100 kg of narcotics in crystalline form, half a ton in liquid form, 4 tons of chemical reagents, over 600 kg of other types of drugs, 7 chemical reactors, and various equipment were seized.

Three chemical technologists from Ukraine were arrested, along with a packager-deliverer and one person suspected of organizing these activities. All apprehended individuals have been detained, and a number of criminal cases have been initiated.
