Under Novosibirsk, the former head of the Ubinsk district Council of deputies was obliged to return the prizes issued to himself

As the supervisory authority found out, from December 2020 to December 2024, the speaker of the district council independently made decisions on his own bonus. At the same time, the necessary decisions of the representative body were not. The actions of the MP took place in a conflict of interest.

For four years, Suchkov accrued premiums for more than 1.5 million rubles. The prosecutor’s office of the Ubinsk district appealed to the Barabinsk district court with a claim for the return of these funds, as well as more than 500 thousand rubles as interest. The court supported the requirements of the supervisory authority and recovered money from the former deputy.

In addition, the prosecutor’s office demanded to change the grounds for termination of powers of the former chairman of the district council to the wording “due to loss of trust”.

At the same time, the Barabinsk District Court is considering a criminal case against the same former speaker. He was charged under part 4 of article 159 of the criminal code (fraud).

The criminal prosecution of Suchkov is associated with payments that went beyond the stipulated wage fund. The investigation found that from 2015 to 2025, the chairman of the council appropriated more than 2.7 million rubles intended for the remuneration of a deputy, whose position was not actually provided for in the district council.

Earlier, “MK in Novosibirsk” reported that the ex-deputy of the Iskitim city Council Pustotin was imprisoned for 4.5 years for insertion into the gas pipeline.
