Krasnoyarsk police officers uncovered a large-scale compensation fraud scheme for defrauded shareholders. Seven city residents illegally received more than 50 million rubles from the Territory Development Fund.
According to law enforcement officials, from December 2021 to July 2024, the criminals provided the fund with fake contracts of claim for unfinished construction projects on Priboynaya Street. They pretended to be participants in shared construction, although in fact they had nothing to do with the construction of this housing.
