Luke Khayrullina, a bank teller from Bashkir Salavat who escaped more than a month ago with her family and money, was detained in Kazan. A 36-year-old woman was hiding in a rented apartment in one of the sleeping areas of the city. According to the media, it was possible to reach her mark due to the negligence of one of the cashier’s daughters. In the near future, the fugitives will be delivered to Bashkiria.

Recall that the incident occurred on May 27 in the small town of Salavat. The senior cashier of the local branch of the Rosselkhozbank, Louise Khairullina, asked for leave early from work, and after a while it turned out that a large amount of money in euros, rubles and dollars disappeared with her. The total damage is estimated at more than 20 million rubles.

“The republic’s Ministry of Internal Affairs is searching for Khairullina Louise Ramilevna, born in 1983, who is suspected of stealing money in the amount of more than 20 million rubles from the bank cashier in Salavat,” the Interior Ministry said at the time.

The detention of Khairullina, whose traceless disappearance at the end of May caused a resonance in the media, was reported by the Russian Interior Ministry.

“As a result of joint operational search activities, it was established that the suspect was hiding with his family in the city of Kazan. Today she was detained in one of the rented apartments. The necessary operative and investigative actions are being carried out with her now. The location of the stolen funds is established, ”said the official representative of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, Irina Volk.

The ministry noted that the officers of Bashkiria and Tatarstan, as well as officers of the Bashkir UFSB, participated in the operation to establish the location of the suspect. Also, the Interior Ministry recalled that in relation to the cashier, the Main Investigation Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Republic of Bashkortostan initiated a criminal case under part 4 of article 160 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.

The accused court in absentia elected a preventive measure in the form of arrest and after transfer to Bashkiria, she will be sent to the SIZO. As for the husband of a woman, Marat Khairullin, it is not yet clear whether he will be charged.

How to get on the trail of a missing family, the police did not report. According to Lenta.ru, which refers to data from a source in law enforcement, the police were helped by a call from one of the daughters, Khairullina, to her grandfather, who was able to be traced by the police. After that, according to the billing data, they determined the location of the child, and consequently, the rest of the family members.

The Russian Interior Ministry also distributed a live video from a rented apartment in Kazan, where Khairullina lived. It is known that a woman, together with her husband and two daughters, was hiding in one of the sleeping districts of Kazan, in a modest rented apartment in a high-rise building.

According to media reports, the residents of this house often met the Khairullin family on the landing, but did not know that they were wanted. In this apartment, the tenants took turns quite often and the locals got used to the often changing neighbors.

Thus, during the search in Khairullina’s apartment, the stolen money, 9 million rubles, 140,900 dollars and 101,315 euros, were not found and the defendant has not yet revealed where she hid them.

The detention has already commented on the father of the woman. “If only we were alive,” said Ramil Mullahmetov, the Bashkortostan State TV and Radio Company. He also told reporters that at the time of the investigation regarding the daughter, she would take her children to her.

For a long time nothing was known about the fate of the woman and her family who disappeared on May 27. Before the flight, she deleted almost all of her accounts in social networks. Nevertheless, her fate was actively discussed in the media and social networks. Caring users even distributed the hashtag #runluizarun (“run, Louise, run”).

Recall that the first successes in the investigation occurred on June 25, when police found a family car in Father Hirullina’s garage, in which, as expected, the family left the region.

In the car, they found bedding, which led the police to assume that immediately after the flight, the family spent some time in the garage. In this case, the woman’s father explained to the police that he had not looked into the garage for a long time and did not know that the car was there. At the end of June, Louisa’s close relatives and her husband were searched, and investigators also took samples of their genetic material from them.

Louise Hairullina faces up to 10 years in prison.
