RSSUN Worker Charged With Faking Documents
Carolyn Hileman | August 12, 2007
Vyacheslav Manokhin was accused of helping numerous non-U.S. citizens enter the country illegally by providing fraudulent documents so they could obtain visas to attend conferences that either did not exist or which they did not attend. According to court documents, Manokhin used his U.N. position to make it appear as though the U.N. supported the visa applications. In most cases, prosecutors said the forgeries helped the person get a visa. Manokhin, 45, was scheduled to appear in court later Monday. The Greenwich, Conn., resident is a Russian citizen. He faces up to five years in prison if found guilty.
