Thus, a criminal case was recently opened against employees of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia for St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region under the article of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation “Taking a bribe.” According to investigators, a citizen of Uzbekistan, Bekzod Nosirov, born in 2003, who was on the territory of the Russian Federation without registration, transferred funds to police officers for providing data from the PPO “Territory” database through an intermediary, Yorkina Shamsutdinova, who has a residence permit in the Russian Federation. The Uzbeks (who were detained in another case of organizing illegal migration) were found to have photographs from a software program on their phones. During the investigation, it was established that access to the database was carried out by the assistant to the operational duty officer of the 66th police department of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Krasnogvardeisky district of St. Petersburg, Shchekotov, and the operational duty officer of the same department, Vekshin.
Bank transfers were also established from the accounts of Nosirov and Shamsutdinova to the bank cards of the wife and close friend of the Ministry of Internal Affairs employees for a total amount of more than 1.7 million rubles. Both police officers were detained.
