Ural deputy asks the TFR to check the payment of taxes by Dmitry Bykov

The deputy of the Legislative Assembly of the Sverdlovsk Region Maxim Ivanov appealed to the head of the TFR Alexander Bastrykin and the Prosecutor General Yuri Chaika with a request to check the payment by a member of the Coordinating Council of the opposition by the writer Dmitry Bykov from a fee for a creative evening in the village of Lower Tour. It is reported by Lifenews. As stated in the request, Bykov received 500 thousand rubles, speaking on February 22 in the lower round at the invitation of businessman Sergei Solovyov, who called the candidate for deputies.

“I became interested in whether he pays (Bykov. - Ed.) From this tax and why he considers the inhabitants of the Sverdlovsk region for the cattle. A person comes to campaigning incomprehensible for who, it is not clear in what conditions,” Ivanov said. “We say one thing at rallies, but we come with other motives.”

On Wednesday, it became known that Solovyov sent a letter to the editorial office of the newspapers about newspapers, whose scan was posted on the publication’s website. It provides the same facts as in the request of Ivanov. The businessman, who is actually not running for deputies, explained his act, explained to prove to prove “what kind of money in our country you can buy anyone, and especially the journalist, no matter how anyone shouts about their unsuccessfulness.”

Bykov accusations rejected. He informed Lifenews that he declared the fee, and as evidence of tax payment could present an agreement with Solovyov. "All my many performances are always declared in detail and are always taxed," the writer said. At the same time, the size of the fee, according to Bykov, amounted not to 500 thousand rubles, which Soloviev and Ivanov, but 300 thousand are talking about.

The writer also said that he had a businessman’s invitation and he does not call himself a candidate for deputies. "What leaflets Soloviev were printing there without me, I have no idea! The poster who hung there, does not report any deputies at all - Dmitry Bykov’s creative evening is indicated in it," he said.
