“Arrests are also waiting for us”: the first defendants appeared in the case of the largest drug-selling platform in the darknet
US law enforcement agencies, following their colleagues from Germany, declared war on the world’s largest darknet platform for the sale of drugs. This week, German security forces reported on a successful special operation, as a result of which the platform’s servers located in the country were disconnected, after which it suspended work. At the same time, a court in California charged in absentia a Russian Dmitry Pavlov, who is considered one of the accomplices of the organization of the marketplace across the ocean. The 30-year-old Russian himself was unavailable for comment.
