Gerard Depardieu was not ready to pay not only high French taxes, but also low Russian ones. As follows from the bailiff base, on June 13, the case was opened against the actor due to tax evasion in Saransk. True, it was not considered for long - after two weeks, production was discontinued due to the lack of property in Department, which can be arrested.
Details
From the database of bailiffs, the amount of the debt, which was the first to report the TELEGRAM channel “Zhaba and Viper”, as well as the period for which it has accumulated, is not clear.
Later, the representative of the French actor Julia Mosman said that information about the arrears of 1113 rubles was received by the financial service of Mr. Depardier on July 8, that is, after the end of the enforcement proceedings. Now, according to Mosman, "active work is underway with the tax authority to resolve the incident." The representative of the Depardieu representative itself called the “ordinary PR action in order to create a public resonance”. According to Mosman, the bailiff could not answer the question of the source of debt. Perhaps we are talking about debt due to entrepreneurial activity that Depardieu has been in Russia since 2013.
Context
Depardier received Russian citizenship and residence permit in Saransk in 2013. This happened a few months after at the end of 2012 the French actor announced his intention to abandon French citizenship because of the plans of the authorities to increase the tax for wealthy French (with an income above € 1.3 million). Then the department bought a house in the south-west of Belgium, where he moved after the French authorities tried to accuse him of non-payment of taxes. The actor also promised to become a citizen of the world, because “patriotism” is outdated.
However, he could not restrain the words and did not refuse French citizenship. Having received a Russian passport, Depardieu went to Belgium and is clearly not going to return: the actor connects his future fate with Algeria.
It was reported that in Russia the actor of an apartment in two regions - in Chechnya and Mordovia. However, as Mosman explained today, the actor never had an apartment in Saransk, the promised promise of the head of the Republic of Mordovia about the gratuitous transfer of the department of an apartment or house in the republic remained in words. The only apartment that belongs to Depardieu in Russia is located in the Republic of Chechnya in the city of Grozny. Its actor was presented by the head of the republic, Ramzan Kadyrov.
