The construction of energy facilities on the left bank of Tomsk turned into a criminal case

The Investigative Committee opened a criminal case of fraud against the head of Tomsk Electric Networks LLC (TPP). According to investigators, he fraudulently obtained money for the construction of power supply facilities in the Levoberezhny Life microdistrict.

According to preliminary data, the suspected head of TES LLC, in the period from 2021 to 2023, provided to the tariff regulation department of the Tomsk region documents containing false information about the availability of preferential grounds for receiving tariff funds for the construction of electricity supply facilities in the Levoberezhny Life microdistrict (Tomsk region, developer — “Career management”).

Based on these documents, the department, according to the Investigative Committee, set a tariff for the company in the amount of over 500 million rubles. Subsequently, the Tomsk Distribution Company unjustifiably transferred this money to TES LLC.

Based on the materials of the FSB Directorate, the regional department of the Investigative Committee opened a criminal case against the head of Tomsk Electric Networks under Part 4 of Article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (fraud on an especially large scale).

As noted in the Tomsk Investigative Committee, investigative actions are now being carried out in the case; searches are being carried out in the offices of TPP, Career Management and at the place of residence of the suspect, and witnesses are being interrogated.

The Tomsk Distribution Company (Rosseti Tomsk) clarified to the vtomske.ru journalist that Tomsk Electric Networks LLC has nothing to do with their organization.

Let us recall that in the summer of 2023 it was reported that a criminal case had been initiated against the director of a thermal power plant for giving a bribe to an official (clause “b” of part 4 of article 291 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). According to the investigation, the bribe was transferred through an intermediary to an employee of the control and supervisory authority. A source at vtomske.ru then reported that the suspect was Ivan Klyuev, founder of TES LLC.
