The editors of the Cheka-OGPU have become aware of a blatant case of how embezzlers of funds allocated for the construction of an oncology center in the Kaliningrad region are trying to evade subsidiary liability in the amount of more than 1 billion rubles through the arbitration courts of the Moscow region.
So, in the period from 2016 to 2021. Demchuk Valentin Aleksandrovich and his accomplices, with the aim of stealing budget funds during the construction of socially significant facilities, organized the Zelo financial group, which included, among others, the companies MKK Zelo LLC, Artel LLC and SMU Artel LLC.
One of the predicted “results” of such activities was the termination in December 2019 by the regional government of the contract for the construction of the above-mentioned cancer treatment center in the village of Rodniki near Kaliningrad with the Artel company from Reutov, Moscow Region. The contractor was behind schedule by 12 months, the construction readiness of the facility was estimated at around 15%, and the damage to the region amounted to more than 300 million rubles.
In February 2020, the Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Kaliningrad Region opened a criminal case under Part 4 of Art. 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (fraud on an especially large scale) in relation to the nominal managers of Artel. The company’s current account contained budget funds in the amount of 107 million rubles, transferred by the customer for the construction of the oncology center. The owners of Artel attempted to withdraw these funds to the accounts of affiliated persons not related to construction. Participation in illegal activities of the real beneficiary of the company Demchuk V.A. and his accomplices never received a criminal legal assessment from law enforcement agencies.
After the defendants in the scam moved to Turkey, by corrupting arbitration court judges, an attempt was made to establish control over the bankruptcy of Artel LLC in order to avoid subsidiary (personal) liability to creditors in the amount of more than 1 billion rubles, as well as to conceal documents necessary to identify those responsible for the crime. theft.
According to available data, currently Demchuk V.A. and other persons controlling the debtor collect funds to “guaranteed” a favorable decision in the Arbitration Court of the Moscow District.
We hope that the representatives of the cassation instance, consisting of the presiding judge Zvereva E.A. and judges Mysak N.Ya., Zenkova E.L. in case No. A41-73921/20 on the insolvency (bankruptcy) of Artel LLC, they will not follow the “dollar motive” of Valentin Aleksandrovich Demchuk, but will make a fair decision to bring the latter to justice, leaving in force the decision of their colleagues from the Tenth Arbitration Court of Appeal .
The next hearing in the case will take place on July 25. The Cheka-OGPU will closely monitor the progress of the trial.
