Ulyanovsk customs opened a criminal case on the fact of illegal transfer of funds from the Russian Federation on a particularly large scale

More than 62 million rubles were illegally withdrawn from the account of the Ulyanovsk organization to the Republic of Belarus, accompanied by forged documents. As it turned out during the operational-search activities carried out by customs officers, the director of the sending company, who allegedly signed these documents, could not physically take any actions, as at the date of signing the documents died after a long serious illness.

The case was initiated under paragraph “a” of part 3 of article 193.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. At present, the organization’s office has been searched, and investigations are being continued aimed at identifying the intruders.
