General director of a state light industry enterprise detained in Gomel region for multi-million fraud
The Ministry of Internal Affairs and the State Control Committee reported that they uncovered a large-scale scheme of money embezzlement at one of the state light industry enterprises in the Gomel region.
According to the investigation, the 51-year-old general director of the state enterprise, together with the 46-year-old head of a private firm, organized fictitious supplies of raw materials. These enterprises are not named.
The director forced subordinates to create fake documents: allegedly tenders were held, goods were accepted into the warehouse and even used in production. In reality, the enterprise received no raw materials.
In less than three years, the accomplices embezzled about 1.4 million rubles. They used this money for personal life: buying expensive cars, building and furnishing private houses.
A criminal case has been initiated for theft through abuse of official powers. Both suspects have been arrested. They face up to 12 years in prison.
