The young man pleaded guilty and has already compensated the victims for part of the damage. He had not been brought to criminal responsibility before, but he had been noticed by the police.
The police report does not specify which concert the teenager was selling fake tickets for, but from the general context, it is clear that it concerns the concerts of Russian singer Mot (Matvey Melnikov), which took place on February 14 and 15 at "Minsk-Arena". It was previously reported that some potential concert-goers had fallen victim to fraud.
