Sources of the Cheka-OGPU reveal new details of corruption schemes in the Investigation Department of the Investigative Committee for the Chuvash Republic. Head of the Investigative Directorate of the Russian Federation for Chuvashia Poltinin A.V. and his deputy Fedorov M.Yu. may be associated with the gambling business in the republic.

The day before yesterday (08/02/2022) the court found no one guilty Viktorova A.V. in committing crimes under Part 4 of Article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation and Part 3 of Art. 30, part 4 art. 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. Ex-policeman Viktorova A.V. sent to a colony for fraud against the organizer of a gambling business.

From the case materials it is known that in the period from July 2021 to March 2022, a former employee of the unit for combating economic crimes of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Chuvashia Viktorov A.V. promised his friend, the organizer of an illegal gambling business, to provide information about operational-search activities for a monthly fee of 150 to 600 thousand rubles. In April 2022, when a former police officer learned that a criminal case had been opened against the organizer of a gambling business, he offered to help avoid criminal liability for 10 million rubles. This money was intended for the head of the Investigative Directorate for the Chuvash Republic, Major General Poltinina A.V.with whom Viktorov studied together at the police school and was on friendly terms.

Upon receipt of an advance payment of 2 million rubles from the games organizer Viktorova A.V. detained by FSB officers. In the initial testimony, the detainee Viktorov A.V. and the organizer of the gambling business reported that the money was intended Poltinin A.V. However, after being detained in the temporary detention center, Viktorova A.V. there was a meeting with Poltinin’s deputy Fedorov M.Yu. and deputy regional head of the FSB Directorate of Chuvashia Semenov A.V., which is confirmed by a note in the temporary detention center registration log. During the meeting, Viktorova A.V. persuaded not to testify Poltinina A.V., having promised to reclassify the crime to a more lenient one for this – a sanction for Part 4 of Art. 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation does not have a lower limit of punishment, unlike Part 4 of Art. 291.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.

Previously, Deputy Head of the Investigative Committee for the Chuvash Republic Fedorov M.Yu. was repeatedly found to provide intermediary services in the interests of his immediate supervisor Poltinina A.V., including influencing the course of the investigation of a number of high-profile cases. Fedorov, through relatives, owns a cottage not specified in the declaration and three luxury cars. Head of the first department for particularly important cases Rodionov R.R. covered for the financial director of NPP Ekra for a long time Kachkova T.Yu.
