Today Elena Blinovskaya was brought to court for the next hearing. The detention of the “Marathon Queen” was extended for another month, RIA Novosti reported.
Despite the fact that the lawyer of the businesswoman stated that the term of the tax evasion charge has expired, the businesswoman will continue to be detained before the trial. She has been there for six months. Previously, Elena paid 83.3 million rubles, and the amount of her debt amounted to 1.213 billion rubles.
Let us remind you that Elena Blinovskaya was detained while trying to cross the border on April 27, 2023. At that time, she was accused of evading more than 918 million in taxes and legalizing 43 million rubles. Taking into account unpaid fines, the total debt amounted to 1 billion 400 million.
The entrepreneur paid only 55 million rubles at a time. On December 29, the businesswoman filed a lawsuit with the tax authorities, demanding that the decisions of the federal service be declared invalid. On January 22, the court ruled to transfer Elena to a pre-trial detention center.
