The investigation stopped the criminal prosecution of blogger Elena Belinovskaya's husband Alexey on charges of tax evasion. The reason was the businessman's participation in a military operation in Ukraine, law enforcement authorities told TASS. In the spring of 2024 Balinovsky signed a contract with the Ministry of Defense. REN TV also reported the end of Balinovski's criminal case, citing his lawyer. In May 2023, the businessman was accused of complicity in his wife's tax evasion schemes. According to the investigation, Belinovskaya and her partners attracted individual entrepreneurs and legal entities under their control, who used special tax regimes to split the business in order to artificially reduce income and, as a result, reduce taxes.
