Men – Davit Avlyan, Hrant Gevorgyan, Hayk Grigoryan and Gurgen Nersesyan – pleaded not guilty on Wednesday. If he is sentenced, everyone could risk in life prison.
The accusation act alleys that men have sold cocaine, methamphetamine, MDMA – also known as ecstasy – and ketamine in exchange for cryptocurrency, then used the American postal service to deliver the drugs.
The Joyinc market was “one of the most prolific methamphetamine and cocaine distributors to operate on Darknet,” the Ministry of Justice said in its press release.
