       An enterprising resident of Kazan, who illegally transferred funds to accounts of non-residents, had planned everything in advance and devised a scheme, but customs officials managed to uncover it.

       Employees of the Tatarstan customs service thwarted a large-scale scheme of illegal transfer of funds abroad, which was organized single-handedly by a 51-year-old resident of Kazan. Despite the carefully thought-out mechanism using modern technologies, operatives managed to expose the criminal activity and establish all the circumstances of the incident. During a series of operational-search activities, it was established that the suspect was conducting currency operations to transfer funds to accounts of non-resident organizations through companies controlled by him, registered in the Republic of Tatarstan. To legalize the transactions, knowingly false documents were provided to financial and credit organizations. “Currency operations were carried out by the resident of the republic using electronic digital keys to confirm the authenticity of documents and transactions in electronic form,” noted customs representatives. The total amount of funds withdrawn exceeded 57 million rubles. Two criminal cases have been initiated regarding illegal operations under parts of Article 193.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation “Conducting currency operations for transferring funds in foreign currency or the currency of the Russian Federation to accounts of non-residents using false documents.” The sanctions for the incriminated articles provide for strict punishment — imprisonment for up to five years with a possible additional fine of up to one million rubles. As reported, one of the passengers on a flight from China was detained at Kazan airport for attempting to carry over 20 kg of commercial goods without declaration.
