A man accused of misappropriation of 150 million roubles was deported to Russia

Officers of the National Central Bureau of Interpol of the Russian MIA convoyed ex-head of Regional State Unitary Enterprise “Primorskaya Kraevaya Apteka” Vasiliy Sysoykin who had been wanted by the Russian FSB Administration for the Primorsky Territory for misappropriation and embezzlement of budget funds in especially large amounts from Montenegro to Moscow. Earlier, in the airport of Tivat, the wanted man was handed over to the officers of the National Central Bureau of Interpol of the Russian MIA and of the guard of the Russian Federal Penitentiary Service. The former official, resident of Vladivostok, had organized the life-guard using the enterprise headed by him, having appointed bodyguards and drivers at full-time positions of the enterprise.

Besides, the detained man had regularly received money at the enterprise's cash office without executing required cash expenditure documents and used it at its discretion or deposited it to bank accounts opened in his name or in the name of his spouse. According to the preliminary data, the damaged caused by his activity totaled 157 million roubles.

When the defendant in the criminal case had hidden from the law enforcement bodies in the foreign state, he was put on the international wanted list in all Interpol member states. Sysoykin was detained in the airport of Podgorica (Montenegro) by the police and was placed under pre-extradition arrest.

The competent bodies of Montenegro approved the request of the Prosecutor General's Office of the RF for the extradition of Sysoykin, after which he was deported to Russia.
