In Krasnoyarsk criminal cases of bribery on a particularly large scale in the conclusion of municipal contracts for road construction works have been initiated. This was reported on December 5 in the press service of the main investigative department of the Investigative Committee of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation for Krasnoyarsk Krai and the Republic of Khakassia.

"Two criminal cases have been initiated against the former head of MKU "Management of roads, infrastructure and improvement" and two residents of the city of Krasnoyarsk. Depending on the participation of each, they are suspected of committing a crime under part 6 of article 290 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation ("Receipt of a bribe on a particularly large scale"), part 4 of article 291.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation ("Mediation in bribery, committed on a particularly large scale")", - stated in the message of the department.

According to the investigation, from September 2018 to December 2019, the head of MKU "UDIB" received from the General Director of LLC "PromStroy" through an intermediary a bribe totaling more than 73 million rubles. The bribe was transferred in installments for assisting in securing the victory of the firm that participated in a tender to determine contractors for the right to conclude municipal contracts.

In addition, in December 2023, another intermediary received a bribe of at least 10 million rubles from the CEO of the same organization for subsequent transfer to an official of a municipal institution for the provision of similar services.
