TASS, September 16. The Ministry of Internal Affairs has opened a criminal case on the theft of almost 1 billion rubles from the Ministry of Defense during the construction of a communications control center. As law enforcement agencies told TASS, the head of ERSM Siberia LLC, Roman Bezrukov, was detained as part of the case.

The agency's source said that a criminal case was opened for fraud on an especially large scale (Part 4, Article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation) by the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for Krasnoyarsk Krai. Bezrukov was detained by employees of the Main Directorate of Economic Security and Anti-Corruption of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia together with their Krasnoyarsk colleagues.

The case materials available to TASS state that from May 2021 to March 2023, Bezrukov, together with other unidentified persons, transferred at least 993 million 812 thousand rubles into shadow circulation, conducting fictitious transactions under the guise of purchasing materials, performing work and providing services. The criminals withdrew the money through the bank accounts of legal entities affiliated with Bezrukov.

OOO ERSM Sibiri acted as a contractor under a contract concluded between the Russian Ministry of Defense and FSUE Main Military Construction Directorate No. 4 for the construction of the Defense Ministry's communications control center. The total value of the contract was 6.8 billion rubles. Under the terms of the contract, the contractor was obliged to perform design and survey and construction and installation work, but failed to fulfill its obligations. According to the case materials, due to failure to fulfill obligations, the contract was unilaterally terminated on March 1 last year. By that time, the facility was only 6% complete. If found guilty, the businessman faces up to 10 years in prison.
