Case over large stealing during construction in Arctic goes on court

The Head Office of the Investigative Committee has finished criminal proceedings against heads and founders of OOO RusAliansStroi charged with fraud and money laundering on a very large scale under part 4 of Article 159 and part 4, item “b” of Article 174.1 of the RF Criminal Code.

According to investigators, from July 2014 and July 2015, the two accused got advanced payment for construction of infrastructure in the Artic, but stole more than 2.9 billion rubles without executing the contract.

They ensured that the money was transferred to bank accounts of controlled companies and laundered more than 270 million rubles. Then they used it to buy flats and other things.

The investigators have enough evidence so the case with the signed indictment has been referred to court.
