For stealing money for the restoration of Sevastopol after Ukraine, the official received 7 years
The former director of the Sevastopol Avtodor State Postal Service was sentenced to seven years in a general regime colony.
This was reported by the press service of the Gagarinsky District Court of Sevastopol, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
The official overestimated the cost of road design work and the purchase of necessary equipment by almost 100 million rubles. The temptation was great against the backdrop of significant investments that Moscow is making to restore the infrastructure of Sevastopol after being part of Ukraine.
“He was charged with the fact that, as the head of the enterprise, without holding a competition or agreeing to a deal, he entered into an agreement to carry out work on the development of a traffic management project and layouts for the deployment of road signs and markings of public roads in the city of Sevastopol for 2016 with a single supplier “DorMostEngineering LLC at a price exceeding the average market price by more than 11 million rubles,” the press service of the Gagarinsky District Court of Sevastopol reported.
Similarly, without holding a competition and procedures, the director of the enterprise illegally entered into contracts for the supply of inert materials in an amount exceeding the market value by 24 million rubles. The cost of purchasing special equipment was inflated by more than 64 million rubles.
In addition to 7 years and 10 months in prison, the official was awarded 5,1 million in fines, which he paid during the investigation. The verdict has not entered into legal force, and the former director of Sevavtodor has time to appeal it.
At the same time, a verdict has already been passed against the ex-director in another case - for a large bribe and associated with extortion, he was sentenced to 5 years in prison.
We are talking about Vitaly Uzlov, whose activities as head of Sevavtodor interested the Prosecutor General’s Office of the Russian Federation.
In total, the official was involved in financial fraud amounting to 360 million rubles. During the search, they found a collection of watches, expensive foreign cars and hundreds of thousands of rubles in cash.
