Head of a department at a Minsk company illegally appropriated Br90 million in company revenue

August 15, Vitebsk / Olga Bogacheva - BELTA /. The head of a department of a Minsk company illegally appropriated over Br90 million of the enterprise's revenue, Senior Assistant Prosecutor of the Vitebsk Region for Legal Support, Information and Public Relations of the Vitebsk Region Prosecutor's Office Irina Tavtyn told a BELTA correspondent.

The period of fruitful cooperation for the Vitebsk resident with a Minsk LLC engaged in the sale of food products, alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, dates back to 2009 and 2010. While still a sole proprietor, the man born in 1974 took several batches of goods for sale from the enterprise, for which he subsequently did not pay. After some time, he got a job there as the head of one of the Vitebsk departments. The fraudster also used his new official position for personal purposes: at his instruction, a specialist from the supply department drew up waybills for the supply of wine, beer, and non-alcoholic beverages to certain individual entrepreneurs and private enterprises, which the manager then sold himself, appropriating the money. The total illegal income received by him in this way amounted to over Br90 million.

For fraud and embezzlement of property through abuse of official powers, the man was sentenced to five years of imprisonment with confiscation of property. The sentence has entered into legal force. -0-
