How do you know that *they* have accounts in Russian banks?

I mean how do you know that these accounts are actually registered for the legal entity behind btc-e? I just quickly went through the exchange site itself, and I didn't find any mention of this entity at all! But maybe, I missed it. Anyway, since there are many options for withdrawing rubles which obviously involve bank transfers (e.g. withdrawals to Russian banks such as Alfa Bank, Tinkoff Bank, Russian Standard Bank), they do have accounts opened in these banks but who is behind these accounts remains largely unknown. Maybe, Putin is behind btc-e

one of their accounts are in Cбepбaнкa Poccии which is an state owned bank in Moscow. and when you have such an account you no longer are unknown entity.
but anyways, i am not here to defend btc-e or bash it. i have been using it and it has the same risks as any other exchange out there

It is the same with any bank out there, not just with Sberbank

You obviously miss my point completely. I don't mean to say that the banks don't know the identity of people or the companies that opened these accounts, I say that they may appear to not be affiliated with btc-e. You may use a lot of fly-by-night companies as intermediaries between you and your clients if you want to retain anonymity. Sberbank's chairman, Herman Greff (an ethnic German, by the way) has (or had) some bitcoins himself, so I wouldn't be surprised if Sberbank turned out to be behind btc-e at the end of the day

Many here look like they underestimate the way BTCe is run. The people who run it have already figured everything out. From how to evade the laws and what loop holes to use to avoid imprisonment. They are also protected by the most important item of all, their anonymity. Maybe Satoshi is behind BTCe.

what the hell are you talking about? imprisonment? since when running a bitcoin exchange has been illegal?

Just in case, the btce-e.com domain is not accessible from Russia (Russian users should use another address)
