The “red” director has to blush for the crime with the state defense order
In Novosibirsk, investigators from the Investigative Committee of the Main Investigative Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation for the Novosibirsk Region visited the Honored Mechanical Engineer of Russia, Chairman of the Board of Directors of JSC SKB Sibelektroterm, Mikhail Kuzmin, the business portal told about this.Continent-Siberia“
Reason: two related criminal cases, part 4 of Art. 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation – fraud organized by a group or on an especially large scale, and paragraph “b” of Part 4 of Art. 174.1 – legalization (laundering) of funds or other property on a particularly large scale.
A source familiar with the situation shares details that remain behind the scenes with the Cheka.
As it turned out, the “red” director Kuzmin, famous in the post-Soviet space, has two faces: on the one hand, he is an example of dedication, honesty and professionalism. On the other hand, he is a cynical organizer of well-thought-out fraudulent schemes. An industrialist got burned due to fraud with the state defense order – this can be interpreted, taking into account the current context, as a betrayal of national interests. Although he acted contrary to them before – as Novosibirsk media wrotethe businessman had a hand in the bankruptcy of one of the largest factories in the USSR-RF for the production of heavy electric furnaces, Sibelektroterm OJSC.
However, this time Kuzmin withdrew the funds invested in the state defense order, for which he used the shell company Novosibirsk Electrothermal Equipment Plant LLC (NZETO LLC). The director of the LLC was a mid-level specialist, Yegor Sinkin: Kuzmin called him into his office and “appointed” him. The role of the director was nominal, and most of the time Sinkin worked for a salary at SKB Sibelektroterm while money was being funneled through the company.
The operatives were helped to unravel the intricacies by… Kuzmina’s matchmaker. Allegedly unaware of anything, 70-year-old pensioner Zoya Vasilyevna Kazak, the sole founder of NZETO LLC, through which stolen funds flowed into the pockets of participants in criminal transactions, clearly told law enforcement officers that once a year Mikhail Kuzmin personally took her to the bank where Kazak signed the necessary documents, took the money and handed it over to Kuzmin. Precisely the amounts for which Mikhail Kuzmin deceived the state.
She became the founder of NZETO 14 years ago thanks to family ties: her daughter married Kuzmin’s son Maxim. So the Kuzmins “wooed” not only the girl, but also the grandmother. Whether matchmakers Kuzmin and Kazak subsequently acted in collusion or whether she was used for their own selfish purposes, essentially framing her for criminal cases, remains to be determined by investigators.
