A court has recognized the evidence gathered by the Bryansk Region investigating bodies of the Russia’s Investigative Committee sufficient to convict advisor to CEO of Rostek Alexander Romanov. He was found guilty of crimes under paragraph “a” of part 4 of article 204 of the RF Criminal Code (illegal receipt by an organized group of persons discharging managerial functions in a commercial organization, of money for committing actions in the interests of a giver in connection with the official position occupied).
According to investigators, in the period between spring 2010 and August 2012 there was a whole system of illegal kickbacks from international carriers operating in Sevsk branch of ZAO Rostek-Bryansk (CJSC). During this period under the excuse of speeding up the customs registration the members of the foreign-economic activity had to transfer a total of over 26 million rubles. The average sum of illegally gained money was no less than 900 thousand rubles each month. Boris Ryzhkov, CEO of the branch and his deputy Yuri Madzharov had 100 thousand rubles of the sum and gave the rest to a supervisor of the branch – the advisor to CEO Alexander Romanov. On 8 August 2012, Ryzhkov and Madzharov were held by agents of the Main Office of Economic Security and Corruption Counteraction of the Russian Interior Ministry while receiving another part of their illegal fee. During his membership in the organized criminal group Ryzhkov personally received 1.7 million rubles, Madzharov – 350 thousand rubles and over 23 million rubles was transferred to Romanov.
The court has sentenced Romanov to 5 years to be serviced in a maximum-security penal colony and a fine of over 117 million rubles. Other accomplices were convicted earlier. They had pled guilty and cooperated with the investigation. Ryzhkov and Madzharov received suspended sentences of 3 years in prison each and fines of 800 and 300 thousand rubles respectively.
