More than 70 accounts under the names of the relatives of a former official from the "K" Department of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs have been found
Moscow, November 27 -- TASS
According to judicial documents reviewed by TASS, more than 70 bank accounts, personal accounts, and brokerage accounts were opened in the names of the relatives of Georgy Satiykov, a former employee of the Information and Communication Technology Crime Division (the "K" Department) of the Russian Federal Ministry of Internal Affairs, who has been arrested in absentia. Satiykov is accused of accepting a bribe of 5 billion rubles, the highest recorded in the history of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The documents indicate that the funds and securities in these accounts are actually owned by Satiykov and his accomplice Dmitry Sokolov. The accounts were registered under the names of his relatives: six accounts under his wife's name, 36 under his brother's name, and the remaining 29 under his parents' names. This includes brokerage accounts denominated in different currencies.
A criminal case against Satiykov, the former head of the 3rd Section of the 4th Department (responsible for combating credit and financial crimes using information technology) of the former "K" Department, was initiated in August 2023. He was charged under Article 290, Paragraph 6 of the Russian Criminal Code (corruption in a particularly large amount), with an alleged bribe of 5 billion rubles. The other defendant in the case is Satiykov's colleague Dmitry Sokolov, who is considered an intermediary. Both defendants have been arrested in absentia and have escaped the control of law enforcement agencies and are listed on international wanted lists.
