The ex-official of the Ministry of Defense Evgenia Vasilyeva, who is accused of embezzlement in the amount of three billion rubles, has prepared a new criminal case, Kommersant claims: she is suspected of illegally selling a large agricultural enterprise in the Krasnodar Territory. The day before, the debate ended in court, and Vasilieva made a six -hour speech , where she refuted all the conclusions of the prosecution. The prosecutor's office previously asked for a conditional imprisonment for her.
TASS reports that on April 30, the court hopes to complete the consideration of the case of Oboronservis: the judge hears replicas of the parties and the last word of the five defendants, after which he will leave for a sentence.
Kommersant, meanwhile, reports that the investigation of the fraud committed with the participation of Evgenia Vasilieva is gaining move in the framework of the so -called second criminal case of Oboronservis. One of the episodes may be a fraudulent sale of an agricultural enterprise Leningradskoye, located in the Krasnodar Territory.
Until May 2009, Leningradskoye, which had 4.8 thousand hectares of sowing areas and 2.2 thousand heads of cattle, had the status of the federal state unitary agricultural enterprise of the North Caucasus Military District. Then it was established by including Agroprom in the military holding. As established by the Main Military Prosecutor's Office (GVP), later the agricultural asset of the defense department was recognized as non-core and was implemented with the permission of the ex-minister Anatoly Serdyukov. According to GVP, the deal was prepared and carried out by Evgenia Vasilieva with the participation of other defendants in the first case of Oboronservis. The Leningradskoye was sold at a low price, the prosecutor’s office said, and the damage from the transaction exceeded 1.2 billion rubles. Now the main owner of the enterprise is the agro -industrial construction plant "Gulkevichi", in which the deal is not commented.
According to this episode, the materials were transferred to the Main Military Investigative Department of the Investigative Committee, there they opened a criminal case under Part 4 of Art. 159 of the Criminal Code - "Fraud on an especially large scale." Kommersant expects that charges in this case will be brought after the sentence in the first case.
