A native of Azerbaijan, his cohabitant and nephew are accused of legalizing 127 migrants in Volgograd.

The case of a 61-year-old native of Azerbaijan has been submitted to the court, who, along with his 56-year-old cohabitant and 30-year-old nephew, fictitiously registered migrants and issued fake employment contracts, which allowed foreigners to extend their stay beyond 90 days and obtain patents.

All the defendants in the case obtained Russian citizenship several years ago. They charged from three to six thousand rubles per person for their services, totaling about 900 thousand rubles in income, writes Kommersant on October 4.

The illegal activity was stopped in June 2025, and the defendants did not admit their guilt. The case has been sent for consideration to the Traktorozavodsky District Court of Volgograd.

Earlier, "Caucasian Knot" reported that in April last year, a resident of the Rostov region was suspected of organizing a channel for illegal migration, connecting citizens of one of the South Caucasus countries with local residents. Her accomplice, who worked in the registry office of the city of Gukovo, registered fictitious marriages between them.
