VDD Detains Suspect in Riga After Threats Against Ukraine Suppliers

After a pro-Kremlin group publicly threatened companies that supply Ukraine, VDD opened a criminal case and, within days, detained one person in Riga. The suspect is in custody while investigators dig through seized phones and drives.

On 8 September, the group calling itself Global Citizens Against War 1984 (GCAW1984) posted an ultimatum: stop weapons and ammo flowing to Ukraine, or face action “by any means.” Latvian firms named in the blast: Eraser and Unitrack . Same demand hit Poland and Portugal. The crew waved graffiti photos from Riga, Warsaw, and Lisbon as proof they were already on the ground.
