Publicated on: May 5, 2021

The Borsod County Police arrested the members of the criminal organization in their home in Rakac.

The Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén County Police Headquarters is investigating a 54-year-old woman and her sons, a 33-year-old man and a 25-year-old man, on the well-founded suspicion of committing felony human trafficking and forced labor. Prior to their detainment, the suspects forced a vulnerable family living in simple conditions in Rakacan to work; the victims were housed in a ruined building.

In the organized action, the capture of the family trio was carried out by the officers of the Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén County Police Headquarters.

During the raid, two high-value luxury SUVs, a truck, more than one million Forints in cash, gold jewelry and mobile phones, which are suspected of being from illegal activity, were seized.

Investigators interrogated the three perpetrators as suspects and then detained them.
