FBK accounts were blocked, presenting a debt for collection of more than 30 million in favor of businessman Prigozhin

The bailiffs blocked the accounts of the Anti-Corruption Foundation founded by Alexei Navalny, presenting a debt for recovery of more than 30 million rubles in favor of businessman Yevgeny Prigozhin. This is reported by MBKh Media, according to the director of the fund, Ivan Zhdanov.

On August 31, the account of the lawyer of the Lyubov Sobol Foundation was blocked due to a debt of 34 million rubles, the newspaper reports . According to Sobol, part of this money was demanded at the suit of the Moscow Schoolboy food plant, and they should go personally to Prigozhin. Another part - in favor of the structures of the Moscow City Hall on claims in connection with the summer actions of 2019.

Earlier it became known that Alexei Navalny and Lyubov Sobol would have to pay personally 88 million rubles to Prigogine in the suit of the Moscow Schoolboy. Whether the money in this lawsuit was recovered from the account of Navalny himself is not yet known.

The decision to pay the Moscow Schoolboy was made at the end of October 2019 by the Moscow Arbitration Court. The plant demanded compensation for lost profits and reputational losses in connection with Sobol's investigation into poor-quality food in children's educational institutions.

Prigozhin, quoted by the press service of Concorde, announced that he intended to "undress and undress the members of this group of unscrupulous people." He clarified that if Navalny, who has been in a coma since March 20 as a result of an alleged poisoning , "gives his soul to God", then he will not pursue the politician "in this world." Prigozhin promised that his lawyers would immediately "start work on the enforcement of debt collection" from Sobol and FBK.

In July, Navalny announced that due to Prigozhin's lawsuit, the fund would have to be liquidated.

• In February 2019, the Investigative Committee opened a criminal case under the article on the production, storage or sale of products that do not meet safety requirements (clause “b” part 2 of article 238 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation) after the mass poisoning of children in schools and kindergartens in Moscow.
• The Moscow Schoolboy plant, which Sobol declared responsible for poor-quality food in children's educational institutions, is managed by Prigozhin's Concord company. Parents of preschoolers filed the first class action lawsuit against Concord in February, and on April 25 the court fined the company more than two million rubles. Consideration of the second class action lawsuit was suspended at the end of May .
• Prigozhin is called "Putin's chef" because the company owned by the businessman was engaged in catering for the highest officials of the Russian Federation. Some media outlets suspect Prigozhin of being involved in the activities of private military companies in the Central African Republic and Syria, in a “troll factory” engaged in manipulating social networks on socio-political topics, as well as in attacks on oppositionists in St. Petersburg .
• FBK employees, including Sobol, were fined large sums in connection with the protests in Moscow in the summer of 2019 on the claims of the metro and the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs .
