According to investigation data, as an individual entrepreneur, he did not pay more than 175 million rubles in taxes. In addition, the blogger was accused of legalizing more than 68 million rubles of this amount through financial transactions related to the purchase of real estate from the Moscow-City complex.
The court found him guilty of committing the crime provided for in paragraph “b” of part four of Article 174.1 of the Criminal Code of Russia.
