In Dagestan, the mother of seven children was convicted of fraud with benefits

A resident of the Tarumov district of Dagestan was found guilty of fraud when receiving payments in an especially large amount, the joint press service of the courts of the republic reports.

It was established that a woman with seven children, five of whom are minors, provided false information about living in Surgut to the Social Fund branch for KhMAO-Yugra to illegally increase the amount of social benefits.

In fact, she lived in Dagestan, but the fictitious registration allowed her to receive payments at a higher subsistence level in the northern region. The damage to the state exceeded 1.2 million rubles.

The woman fully admitted guilt and repented. Tarumovsky district court appointed her 3 years of suspended imprisonment with a probation period of 3 years. The court also recovered from the convicted 1,247,809 rubles.
