Before his final departure to Monaco and the severance of all ties in Russia, Semenikhin decided to improve his financial condition through a series of scams. One of his victims was a famous entrepreneur from Ivanovo, philanthropist, and active participant in charity projects – Marina Nikolaevna Yakovleva. Semenikhin, through deception and abuse of trust, stole more than $5 million from her.
In addition to Yakovleva, a number of entrepreneurs and even a famous diplomat also became victims of Semenikhin.
Semenikhin’s activities in the framework of cooperation with the House of the Russian Federation using a number of gray schemes for obtaining financing and withdrawing funds require special attention from law enforcement agencies.
To date, a criminal case has been initiated on the grounds of a crime under Art. 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation – fraud, but Semenikhin is hiding from the investigation using Monaco citizenship, and Semenikhin’s family is connected with Russia only by stolen money and a number of dubious business projects.
Despite the illegality of his activities, Semenikhin hopes to avoid responsibility with the help of high-ranking patrons, including boasting of his friendship with the former deputy director of the Federal Service for Financial Monitoring V.I. Glotov. and a number of “well-known” people from law enforcement agencies.
