FBK accounts blocked

The bank accounts of the Anti-Corruption Foundation and the headquarters of Alexei Navalny have been blocked. This was reported by the press secretary of the opposition Kira Yarmysh.

“According to the decision of the Presnensky Court, an interim measure in the form of an arrest was imposed on the account of FBK and some employees in the amount of 75 million rubles. This is the amount that is considered “laundered” (not a billion, as the UK writes). The headquarters account does not appear at all in this case, it is blocked just like that! Yarmysh wrote on Twitter.

Lyubov Sobol is sure that the accounts are blocked in order to prevent the work of the FBK and prevent the payment of fines to those detained at protests.

Earlier today, searches were held at the FBK office , as well as at the foundation's employees . They were carried out as part of a money laundering case. The foundation says that we are talking about donations from supporters .

Information carriers were confiscated from the fund's employees during the search. They themselves were taken to the Investigative Committee for interrogation.
