As reported on the website of the Prosecutor General’s Office, they are accused of committing crimes under Part 4 of Art. 160 of the Criminal Code of Russia (“Excess and appropriation of entrusted property by an organized group on a large scale”).

It is noted that Borodin and accomplices from 2008 to 2011 stole more than 14.5 billion rubles from the Bank of Moscow.

The criminal case was sent to the Meshchansky District Court of Moscow for consideration on the merits in the absence of the defendants, who shy away from appearing in court.

In February, it was reported that the request for the extradition of the former President of the Bank of Moscow, Andrey Borodin, who is hiding in the UK, could be sent again.
