Today, June 25, 2014, according to the demand of the Office of the Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation, the competent authorities of the Kingdom of Spain will extradite Russian citizen Yana Rogovaya (Shapiro) to Russia.
Bodies conducting investigation accuse her of committing 5 crimes set out in part 3 of the Article 30, part 3 of the Article 159 (attempted fraud, committed by a group of persons by previous concert, with the infliction of considerable damage on an individual, on an especially large scale), 193 crimes set out in part 3of the Article 159 (swindling committed by a group of persons by previous concert, through their official position), 93 crimes set out in part 3 of the Article 159 (swindling committed by a group of persons by previous concert, with the infliction of considerable damage on an individual, through their official position), 19 crimes set out in part 3 of the Article 160 (misappropriation or embezzlement, that is, the stealing of other people's property entrusted to the convicted person, committed by a group of persons by previous concert, through their official position) and a crime set out on part 4 of the Article 160 (misappropriation or embezzlement, that is, the stealing of other people's property entrusted to the convicted person, committed by a group of persons by previous concert, through their official position, on an especially large scale) of the Criminal Code Of the Russian Federation.
The criminal proceedings against Rogovaya (Shapiro) are conducted by the Central Department of Investigation of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation in Novosibirsk region.
The initial investigation disclosed that during the period from July to September 2005-2006 Rogovaya (Shapiro), being a methodologist for the fee-paying department of Specialized Secondary School of Militia of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia in Novosibirsk, carrying out training according to additional vocational training program “Training of drivers of vehicles of category B”, in complicity with the head of the said department, committed theft of funds belonging to the department and citizens.
Thus, during the enrolment tests for daytime instruction and distance/correspondence instruction, the mentioned persons misled applicants and their relatives as to the terms of the payment and its amount.
Accepting funds as a school fee, they did not submit full amount to the school fund. Moreover, under the pretext of sponsoring the School of Militia to improve its financial and technical state, they accepted funds from citizens that were subsequently misappropriated. The stolen funds amounted to 4, 8 million rubles.
Since Rogovaya (Shapiro) has evaded the investigative authorities, a federal investigation was launched against her in July, 2008, and international investigation in November, 2008.
Due to the fact she was located in Israel in March, 2012, a request of extradition was transmitted to the competent authorities of this state. However, Rogovaya, who, when in Israel, changed her surname to Shapiro, evaded the law enforcement authorities once again.
In June, 2013 Rogovaya (Shapiro) was detained in Kingdom of Spain.
In July, 2013 the Office of the Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation transmitted the request to the Ministry of Justice of the Kingdom of Spain for her extradition to Russia for criminal prosecution. During the process of the request consideration she called on Spanish authorities to apply for refugee status, but her application was rejected and in April, 2014, the government of the Kingdom of Spain made a final decision to extradite Rogovaya (Shapiro).
Today, escorted by the representatives of Federal Penal Correction Service of the Russian Federation and Russian INTERPOL bureau, Yana Rogovaya (Shapiro) will be extradited to Russia.
