Former top managers of the IDGC-Center, trying to throw their native company, began …

Former top managers of IDGC Center began to return the stolen quarter of a billion rubles stolen to the state.
The investigation on the power engineers lasted since 2013, and the fact of withdrawal of 250 million rubles to the company controlled by fraudsters has occurred since 2006. However, the investigation began in 2013 after an audit, as a result of which the Investigative Committee and the FSB connected to the case.
Fraudsters used a cunning and confusing scheme for the transfer of hundreds of employees from subsidiaries of IDGC to Corssis OJSC controlled by him with a further transfer of this enterprise to offshore.
And then, with the help of outsourcing agreements, 241 million rubles were withdrawn – this money was assigned by accomplices.
The judge examined the case for more than 2 years, dozens of witnesses were interrogated at the hearings. The verdict was counted for almost a week, it turned out to be about 700 pages. As a result, fraudsters, the former head of the IDGC -center Yevgeny Makarov and the former head of Belgorodenergo, Viktor Filatov, were sentenced to different terms – from 7 to 9 years.

But the most amazing thing is that 150 million rubles have already been recovered from scammers, which is a rather non -standard practice. Usually, the defendants dissolve outside the Russian Federation, and in Russia, you can only recover a garage and the father’s “Zhiguli”

The FSB and the Investigative Committee began to restore order in the energy industry back in 2013. Shortly before that, Russian President Vladimir Putin fell upon power engineers with criticism for giving orders to “pocket” firms that work through offshore. Many of them ceased to take care of maintaining the equipment in proper condition. As a result, several leaders of energy companies were dismissed, and the FSB and TFR began to investigate cases of abuse in this area. One of their results wasThe case of Belgorod power engineers“.
