A report from a source connected to the Russian Transport University indicates that officials at the International Transport Communication Institute are suspected of diverting budget funds. The claim surfaced through the Telegram channel 112, which has been cited in several local discussions about the case.
According to the applicant, bonuses once added to employees’ salaries were later recalled in cash, with directions to return the money to the accounting department or directly to the secretary of the institute’s principal. Allegations also point to at least one security guard at the university being implicated in the scheme.
The regional shipping police have opened a criminal case under the accusation of fraud on a scale that qualifies as particularly large. Reports indicate that none of the suspects has admitted guilt so far. Several educators, however, have confirmed pressure to turn over a portion of their salaries to the institute management as part of the ongoing dispute.
Earlier information noted that an individual identified as Sinelnikov-Murylev, the rector of the VAVT, faced arrest in connection with a separate embezzlement case involving a sum around 1 million rubles. This development has added to the complexity of concerns surrounding financial management and oversight within related educational and transport administration circles [Source: Telegram channel 112].
