At the request of the General Prosecutor’s Office of the Russian Federation, the competent authorities of the Republic of Cyprus extracted a citizen of the Russian Federation Andrei Tuyev to Russia. He is accused of committing crimes under Part 2 of Art. 201 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (abuse of authority), part 4 of Art. 160 of the Criminal Code (embezzlement).
According to the investigation, from October to November 2013, Tuyu, being the chairman of the board of JSC Ecoprombank, using his official position, entered into a loan agreement without securing with the front -line organization LLC “Reis”, as a result of which the bank was caused by damage worth more than 240 million rubles. 
In addition, Tuyev, together with his deputy, acting in the interests of Magnit-Invest LLC, which did not fulfill the conditions for the refund under the loan agreement in the amount of 260 million rubles, withdrew objects of real estate from the security of this contract for the amount of pledge. As a result, the company did not fulfill obligations to the bank.
These actions led to the bankruptcy of a credit institution and its liquidation.
Since Tuev disappeared from law enforcement agencies, on behalf of the Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation, he was put on the international wanted list.
In connection with the establishment of Tuev in the territory of Cyprus in August 2016, a request for its issuance was sent to the competent authorities of the Republic of Cyprus, which is satisfied.
Thanks to the coordinated actions of the General Prosecutor’s Office of the Russian Federation, organized by close interaction with foreign colleagues, it was possible to achieve its issuance to Russia.
Accompanied by special adversary, Andrei Tuyev will be delivered to Moscow.
