Four employees of the Stavropol SEC Rossiya were suspected of stealing and causing damage 
the edges. They are suspected of theft on an especially large scale and causing property damage by deception or breach of trust. This is reported by the main department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Stavropol Territory.
“During the preliminary investigation, it was established that one of the foremen of the enterprise created a group of employees subordinate to him and other employees of the collective farm with the aim of stealing property,” the official statement said. “To implement the plan in February of this year, citizens in violation of the current legislation, which was established by the court, removed the current leadership from management,” the document says. Then, according to the regional Ministry of Internal Affairs, the organizer of the group with two accomplices sold barley to one of the commercial firms, understating its cost by about 1.3 million rubles. In addition, they entered into the documents of the financial and economic activities of the collective farm false information about the results of the harvested pea crop, artificially creating a surplus of more than 900 tons worth about 15 million rubles.
“Against three citizens, two criminal cases were initiated on the grounds of crimes provided for in paragraphs. “A”, “b” Part 4 of Art. 158 (theft) and clause “b” part 2 of Art. 165 (causing property damage by deception or abuse of confidence) of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, which were combined into one production, – the message says. – As part of further investigative actions, two additional episodes of illegal activity were revealed. The organizer and his nine accomplices stole the agricultural products of the collective farm, creating surplus crops of wheat, barley, corn, soybeans, peas, oats and buckwheat with a total volume of about 10 thousand tons, worth about 225 million rubles.
At the moment, the organizer and three active participants have been detained on the basis of the initiated criminal cases, they are taken into custody. One of the citizens is on the federal wanted list. With regard to the rest of the suspects, the issue of choosing a preventive measure in accordance with the nature and degree of public danger of the unlawful acts they have committed will be decided in the near future. At present, the Main Investigation Department of the regional Glavka is carrying out a set of necessary procedural actions aimed at exposing all participants in illegal activities. The involvement of other employees of the agricultural breeding collective farm, who held various positions, in committing illegal actions is being checked.
As Lenta.ru already reported, the conflict in the SEC “Russia” flared up after some of the employees of the enterprise at a meeting on February 5 2021 elected a new leader, Alexander Grinev. The current legitimate chairman of the SEC “Russia”, who was not admitted to the meeting on false denunciation, did not agree with the decision and appealed to law enforcement agencies and the court. The Sixteenth Arbitration Court of Appeal on November 10 confirmed the conclusions about the nullity of the decision of the commissioners dated February 5, 2021 on the choice of members of the board of the SEC “Russia”. Also, the decision of the Arbitration Court of the Stavropol Territory on the recognition of void decisions made at the meeting on July 2, 2021, came into force. The police opened criminal cases against Grinev and his supporters.
