KGB arrests prominent businessman in Brest
The Committee for State Security (KGB) has arrested the head of Black Red White, a large Belarusian-Polish joint venture in the free economic zone "Brest", on a charge of taking a total of $741,550 out of Belarus illegally.
According to the KGB, it took the businessman three trips in 2001 to get the entire amount across the Polish border. Each time, he showed a legally allowed amount of hard cash at the Belarusian customs, and declared the true amount he was carrying once on the Polish side.
