Online Bank Hacking Case, 2 Guys Sent for 4 Years Imprisonment

The ringleaders of a major organised criminal network that stole nearly £3m from online bank accounts have each been jailed for four years and eight months after a Croydon Crown Court ruling. Ukrainian nationals Yuriy Konovalenko and Yevhen Kulibaba were sentenced after an investigation by the Met's Police Central eCrime Unit (PCeU), codenamed Operation Lath. So far the Met has jailed 13 of the gang's members.
The PCeU argued that the prison sentences show the police to be committed to bringing online fraudsters to justice, but the length of time Konovalenko and Kulibaba will serve could be viewed as too short.
