As GUEBiPK employees established by April 2020, the organizer of the criminal group, Ilya Kligman, was involved in the collapse of at least one and a half dozen credit institutions in Russia, from which more than 100 billion rubles were withdrawn[1]. Among them, for example:

It is also worth noting that Ilya Kligman had no direct relationship with any of these credit institutions, but, according to investigators, he was their ultimate beneficiary.

Kligman left for Germany in 2016, when the investigative department of the Investigative Committee for the South-Western District began an investigation into the theft of money from Arksbank. He was put on the wanted list only in 2019 as part of an investigation into a criminal case of theft from Baikalbank. At the same time, the ex-banker was charged in absentia with fraud.
