“By the decision of the Babushkinskiy district court in respect of Tambova, a preventive measure was taken in the form of detention for a period of February 7, 2020,” the representative of the TASS court quotes.

The detainee pleaded guilty to fraud on a particularly large scale.

According to the agency, she was detained on the border with Belarus while trying to leave Russia.

Earlier, they arrested the former head of the Shchelkovsky district of the Moscow Region, Alexei Valov, accused of receiving a bribe on an especially large scale.

According to the investigation, in 2017 he received a bribe from a subordinate in the form of granting property rights to a Mercedes-Benz car worth over 6 million rubles for patronage and connivance in the service.

URA.RU also reported that in Perm they sentenced the former deputy head of the investigative department of the Investigative Committee of Russia on charges of receiving a large bribe.
