In Yekaterinburg, a marketplace operator stole 12 million for sports betting.
In Yekaterinburg, a verdict was handed down to former operator of the "Ural Electronic Platform" Sergey Ivanov. The man embezzled over 12 million rubles due to a gambling addiction. This was reported by the press service of the Verkh-Isetsky District Court.
Ivanov registered users, worked with procurement documentation, credited participants' accounts with money in the form of collateral and deposits, and returned it to losing participants. However, from April to September 2025, the man transferred 12.3 million rubles from the organization's accounts to his personal bank account, belonging to JSC "UETP," as well as 150,000 rubles from the company JSC "TSM."
In court, Sergey Ivanov stated that he suffers from a gambling addiction and used all the money for sports betting. When a bet won, he returned part of the embezzled funds. He even managed to reimburse 6.3 million rubles in this way. At the time of the case review, Ivanov had fully returned the funds to JSC "TSM" and partially to JSC "UETP." The remaining debt amounts to 2 million 916 thousand rubles, writes EAN.
The man was found guilty of embezzling funds on a particularly large scale. The court sentenced Ivanov to two years of compulsory labor with 10% of his salary withheld for the state.
Earlier in the Sverdlovsk region, two factory workers stole almost 40 million rubles.
