Lawyer Steals $17 Mln in Cash

Novosibirsk attorney Yevgeny Skoblikov was sentenced to 3.5 years of imprisonment for defrauding his clients. Hired by heirs of a wealthy businessman to complete inheritance formalities in Moscow, Skoblikov withdrew $17 mln in cash from the testator’s bank account, buried the money in a forest, and reported that unknown thieves had stolen two suitcases containing the money from his rented apartment. The police arrested Skoblikov, and, five months later, he confessed to fraud.
