Some Ukrainian police officers demand bribes of $200 to $30,000 (about £150 to £22,500) from adult content creators, a lawyer who represents them says. Lesia Mykhalenko told the Kyiv Independent that officers use Ukraine's porn ban to extract money. A bill to end the ban still needs a final vote.
A former OnlyFans model using the pseudonym Velma said an officer and two accomplices dragged a colleague out of her home into a car. They gave her three days to pay or face 'problems'. Penalties reach Hr 85,000 (about $1,800 / £1,350) in fines or seven years in jail.
