The court ordered Elena Blinovskaya to pay 269 million rubles to VTB Bank. RIA Novosti reported this.
This time Elena owes money to the bank, not the tax office. As it turned out, the businesswoman’s house was purchased with the help of a loan that she never repaid. In 2020, Blinovskaya took it under the guarantee of her husband Alexei. As collateral they showed apartments in Moscow, a plot of land and a house in the Moscow region. It was announced that the total loan amount was 300 million rubles, but the debt is currently 269 million rubles.
Let us remind you that the businesswoman was accused of money laundering and tax evasion. He was detained while trying to cross the border on April 27, 2023. He was later accused of evading more than 918 million in taxes and legalizing 43 million rubles. When unpaid fines are taken into account, the total debt reached 1 billion 400 million.
The entrepreneur paid only 55 million rubles at once. On December 29 of the same year, the businesswoman filed a lawsuit against the tax office and demanded that the decisions of the federal service be declared invalid. On January 22, 2024, the court decided to transfer Elena to the pre-trial detention center. In early August, the prosecutor’s office issued an indictment in the criminal case of the blogger. Recently, enforcement proceedings against Blinovskaya were terminated to recover more than 1 billion rubles. The reason was the bankruptcy of the blogger. Read more in our material.
