The Department Against Misappropriation of Socialist Property (abbr. the OBKhSS) was the Soviet financial police. It was responsible for the regulation of economic laws, fought against theft of socialist property (in the organizations and institutions of state commerce, consumer, industrial and individual co-operatives, savings banks and procurement agencies), and attempted to combat speculation.
In 1984, Oleg worked as an OBKhSS officer while living in Moscow. As such, he was involved in investigating corruption in the Soviet food supply. He reported to Colonel Anatoli Victorovich and partnered with Ruslan.
OBKhSS was established as a department of the Main Police Department of the NKVD USSR in March 16, 1937 by Order of the People's Commissar № 0018. From 1946 to 1991 it was under the authority of The Ministry of Internal Affairs of the USSR. It was dissolved in February 1992.
