The Moscow Regional Court announced a verdict in a criminal case against the head of a commercial firm who had been committed crimes under part 4 of article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (fraud) and subparagraph “a” and “b” paragraph 4 of article 174.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (legalization (laundering) of money or other property acquired by a person as a result of himself committed crime).
During the preliminary investigation O. pled guilty to the commission of the incriminated offences and a pre-trial cooperation agreement was concluded with him. Therefore the criminal case was considered in a special trial.
It was established that O. was one of the participants of the criminal group who fraudulently took over the budget funds allocated for an intellectual system for monitoring parking spaces on the streets in Moscow in 2013.
For committing illicit actions the criminal group used the details of legal entities in the manufacture of forged technical, certification, payment and other primary documents for the purpose of stealing money for the supply of equipment that didn’t meet the requirements of the tender documentation.
