In Krasnoyarsk, an ex-bank manager was sent to jail for stealing 150 million from a client

The Oktyabrsky District Court of Krasnoyarsk sentenced a former bank employee who stole more than 150 million rubles from a client.

According to law enforcement, in 2018, a leading bank manager learned that the director of a construction company was keeping a large amount of money. Then she suggested that her friend convince the entrepreneur to open several deposits, promising to give the potential client an increased rate and timely payment of interest.

After 150 million rubles entered the bank, the woman asked the cashier to count the money. And after making sure that the “cash” delivery people had left the bank, she put the bills into a fabric bag.

“Next, the manager replenished her bank accounts, bought an expensive car, a two-level house in a new building, a couple of apartments abroad, made repairs and flew to Turkey, where she lived for more than 5 years,” the regional prosecutor’s office said.

A criminal case was opened against a former bank employee for fraud (Part 4 of Article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). In November 2024, the woman was detained on the territory of the Republic of Turkey. The competent authorities of the country granted the request of the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation and decided to extradite her.

Today, December 3, during a court hearing, the ex-bank manager was found guilty. She was sentenced to real imprisonment for a period of 4 years, with a fine of 500 thousand rubles.

After the verdict comes into force, the convicted person will be sent to prison to serve her sentence.
