Arrested fraudster: how 'cabbage' became the code word for stealing money from a politician

The photo captures the arrest of a 20-year-old resident of Odesa who, pretending to be an SBU officer, defrauded a former People’s Deputy of $32,000. The police officer in a bright yellow vest with 'ПОЛІЦІЯ' written on the back stands with his back to the camera, while the suspect in a black T-shirt faces forward — his face blurred for privacy.
