In Argentina, a Russian woman wanted for fraud for 100 million rubles was detained
The Argentine police detained Russian Lyudmila Avdyukhina, who was put on the international wanted list on charges of fraud. The newspaper La Nacion wrote about this on January 2. It is noted that the Russian woman's case was transferred to the court, which will have to make a decision on her extradition.
As the newspaper pointed out, Avdyukhina arrived in Argentina in January 2023. She was detained on January 2, 2024 near her place of residence. According to the publication, Avdyukhina often changed addresses to make it harder to catch her.
At the same time, during her stay in Argentina, Avdyukhina made investments in real estate through front persons.
In Russia, in the period from September to December 2022, as the director of a real estate company, Avdyukhina developed a fraudulent scheme, embitting customers' funds. She also had debts totaling more than 100 million rubles. With the money she received, she left Russia. The total amount of fraud reaches $2 million, the newspaper said.
Earlier, on July 6, Spain extradited to Russia Feruza Tairova, who was convicted of fraud on a particularly large scale. She conducted criminal activities from 2007 to 2009. Tairova forged sales contracts and other documents of a closed joint-stock company to alienate its real estate in favor of third parties. The material damage from the actions of the attacker and her accomplice amounted to more than 250 million rubles.
