The Ministry of Internal Affairs intensified charges against five defendants in the case of 8.8 billion rubles from six non-state pension funds, writes Kommersant. In addition to fraud, they are accused of organizing a criminal community. Among the defendants are the former president of AFK Sistema Evgeny Novitsky and shareholders of the investment group of the Russian fund Sergey Viliev and Konstantin Beyrit. After new claims were filed, the investigation began anew. All the defendants deny the charge, and their lawyers refused to respond to the administrators' request.
