At the end of March 2020, the commission for the execution of sentences of the Yaroslavl department, when opening envelopes with material evidence – cash in the amount of more than 150,000 rubles, discovered the loss of more than 30,000 rubles. On this fact, as usual, a procedural check began, material was registered on the fact of theft of money, that is, under 158 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.
During the check, the missing money in the amount of more than 30,000 rubles was suddenly “found” in the evidence storage room of the same investigative department. Everyone exhaled and, based on the material, to the delight of everyone, a decision was made to refuse to initiate a criminal case due to the absence of a crime.
In October 2020, material on this fact was received by the investigative department after checking the legality and validity of the decision. It would seem that the money has been found, you can exhale and finally carry out the court verdict regarding material evidence. But that was not the case! In June 2021, a commission of the same composition goes to the investigative department with the aim of executing the verdict on this damned lost money. So what? And money in the amount of more than 150,000 rubles, including more than 30,000 rubles found earlier in the storage room, magically disappeared, “the location of the money has not been established.”
Understanding in advance how bad the situation is as a whole (case after case is being added to the supplement, the department’s ratings are at zero, there is no one to work, money is disappearing, etc.), the head of this ill-fated Bermuda department is quietly sadly retiring at the end of 2020, without any fuss, sit out… Well, you never know? But with a promise that it will be returned when the noise subsides.
During his retirement, this guilty “confused” man and his superior are trying to resolve the issue of missing money from the department….
And, lo and behold, they figured it out! In July 2021, criminal case No. 121027……07 under Part 1 of Art. 158 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, that is, upon the theft of funds from the investigative department by an unidentified person. Again, we watch our hands – not a crime of office, say negligence, but theft – the secret theft of someone else’s property…
This is where questions arise for the Yaroslavl prosecutor’s office. Did the prosecutor have any doubts regarding the qualifications and questions regarding the range of persons who could have committed the crime? Since Part 1 of Art. 158 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation is referred to the jurisdiction of the investigative bodies of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, on what basis is a criminal case for theft initiated by the Investigative Committee? On what basis is 158 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation initiated, and not 293 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, and the case is transferred for investigation not to the Central Administration of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, but to the Yaroslavl Department of the Investigative Committee, that is, to the body in which the crime actually occurred, in which witnesses and possible suspects work ? It appears that only persons who had access there could steal money from the evidence chamber. And if we assume that the theft of money was committed by an outsider(s), then is there negligence in the actions of officials of the investigation department, due to whose oversight this person(s) was able to steal money from the cell of the investigation department? But, apparently, the prosecutors did not have such questions!
During the investigation, they try to blame all the sins associated with “not identifying the location of the money” on the employees of this department (assistant manager, investigator). It still hasn’t worked out, so the case continues to hang around. And the confused leader is a witness!
Since the Yaroslavl head of the SU is going to head the SEC, the retired head of the confused head literally recently, keeping his promise, was returned to the department and nowhere, and as a whole deputy head of the department’s forensics department…
