2021:8 years in prison for bribery
As it became known at the end of July 2021, the Railway City Court of the Moscow Region sentenced the former head of the military medical commission for the cities of Lyubertsy, Dzerzhinsky, Kotelniki and Lytkarino to 8 years in prison, therapist Vladimir Rybkin. He was found guilty under part 3 and part 4 of Art. 291 of the Criminal Code (giving a bribe to an official on a large scale) and part 1 of Art. 285 of the Criminal Code (abuse of power).
The nurse of the Lyuberetsky neuropsychiatric dispensary Olga Shabanov, who acted as an intermediary in transferring part of the bribes, was sentenced to a fine of 200 thousand rubles.
As the investigation established, in 2018, Shabanova's colleague transferred 130 thousand rubles of bribes through her to Rybkin so that her son would receive a medical challenge from the army. In addition, Rybkin systematically handed over bribes to the former chairman of the military medical commission (VVK) of the Moscow Region military commissariat, Alexander Zhovtan, from conscripts through nurse Nadezhda Chistyakova. The total amount amounted to 870 thousand rubles, writes Kommersant.
According to investigators, Rybkin organized conscripts to undergo a medical examination in the trauma department of the GBUZ "Lyubertsy District Hospital No. 2."
A criminal case on bribes for release from service in the army was initiated by the 516th VSO IC of the Russian Federation in December 2018 following the results of an audit of the military prosecutor's office of the military registration and enlistment offices of the Moscow Region - the reason for the check was the increase in the number of conscripts who did not get into military service for various diseases.
The defendants in the case were the former chairman of the military medical commission of the military commissariat of the Moscow region Alexander Zhovtan and the head of the appeal of the commissariat of Krasnogorsk Vasily Shiryaev. The first in July 2021 was found guilty of 12 episodes of receiving a large bribe and 13 cases of abuse of power, the second in two episodes of giving a bribe by a group by prior conspiracy.
Vladimir Rybkin neither during the investigation nor in court pleaded guilty. He claimed that he worked in the military commissariat under a labor contract and held two posts at once.[1]
