    Russia, Armenia join forces to catch money forgers

    Centre TV, Moscow
    2 Jul 04

    [Presenter] The Russian and Armenian police have conducted a major
    joint operation. Over two years the police tracked an international
    gang of money forgers. As a result, 22 members of the well-organized
    criminal organization have been arrested.

    The underground printing press was found in an ordinary Moscow Region
    flat. The forgeries were made by citizens of Russia and Armenia. They
    had a well-organized network of middlemen through which the false
    R1,000 and R500 notes were distributed across Russia.

    In total, the initial investigation has recorded 192 instances of
    forged money being sold in 48 Russian regions.
