The court learned about the non -payment of Ulyukaev a multimillion -dollar fine and decided to recover money from the arrested account

Former Minister of Economic Development, Alexei Ulyukaev, convicted of a bribe, contrary to reporting reports , still has not paid a fine of 130 million rubles imposed on him by sentence. This became known on Friday, June 29, during a meeting in the Zamoskvoretsky court of Moscow, where Ulyukaev’s request was considered to remove his arrest from his property.

The prosecutor's office opposed this. The accusations reported that the fine of Ulyukaev has not yet been paid, which means that the court has no grounds for withdrawing arrest from his property.

Larisa Kashtanova’s lawyer Larisa Kashtanov acknowledged the fact of a non -payment of a fine and explained this with the arrest of property. "The penalty has not been paid at present because the property has been arrested," she said. Kashtanova asked the court to cancel the decision to arrest the land, money, hours and a car of Ulyukaev so that the ex-official could pay a fine.

In turn, the prosecutor asked the court to remove Ulyukaev’s property partially, in particular, from the account of Ulyukaev in the bank, "since it has enough funds to pay off a fine of 130 million rubles." “After repaying the fine, it will be possible to remove the arrest from the rest of the property,” the prosecutor added.

As a result, the court decided to recover a fine appointed to Ulyukaev from one of his accounts. "To pay the funds on the account of Ulyukaev on the expense of payment of the fines entrusted with the court verdict," the text of the decision of the judge TASS quotes.

Before paying the fine, the court refused to remove the arrest from the property of the ex-minister. The defense of Ulyukaeva remained unhappy with the decision and intends to appeal it. The convict’s lawyer also stated that after paying the fine, the arrest from Ulyukaev’s property would be removed automatically.

Earlier it was reported that Ulyukaev had already paid a fine. This was reported by the source of Interfax agency. “He extinguished the fine,” he argued. The same source announced the defense of Ulyukaev by the defense of the Zamoskvoretsky court of Moscow to remove the former arrest official from the property.

Ulyukaev was detained on November 14, 2016, as reported, upon receipt of a bribe in the amount of two million dollars from the head of Rosneft Igor Sechin. On December 15, 2017, Zamoskvoretsky Court of Moscow sentenced the ex-minister to eight years in prison with a maximum security colony, as well as a fine of 130 million rubles.

The court also arrested the property of the former senior official. Among the arrested property of Ulyukaev, 15 real estate objects were called , including apartments in Moscow and 10 land plots in the Smolensk region with an area of ​​1 thousand to 15 thousand square meters. m., Range Rover car and money worth at least 564 million rubles.

Two accounts of Ulyukaev were arrested in Sberbank ($ 1.5 million and 10.7 million rubles) and VTB (for more than 700 thousand rubles and more than 300 thousand dollars). In addition, the arrest was imposed on the gold coins of the 999th sample costing from 2 to 6 million rubles found by the ex-minister.
