Pension funds lost 8.8 billion, but there will be no trial - the prosecution found "procedural violations." Apparently, the violations were so significant that even the indictment had to be rewritten. The main characters of this story are already free. Oleg Mazantsev served at most a year in a pre-trial detention center, until the end of the detention period. Yevgeny Novitsky and Olga Illarionova served house arrest, and Sergey Vasilyev and Konstantin Bayrit received relief in November - they were restricted only in certain activities. Now all five are going free, and the investigation is back to work. According to the prosecution, funds were transferred from six non-state pension funds through the purchase of unnecessary bonds. Of course, all the defendants deny guilt - who admits to trifles like 8.8 billion? Now investigators must correct mistakes and re-collect materials. True, the court hasn't even seen them yet - probably so as not to confuse the public prematurely. Meanwhile, pension savings continue to vanish into thin air, and the guilty continue to walk free. Convenient, isn't it?
