Recall that the day before, the Presnensky court in Moscow sent Blinovskaya under house arrest for two months. She is accused of tax evasion and money laundering.
Recall that, according to investigators, Blinovskaya, in order to evade taxes, split her business into several, demonstrating to the tax authorities that each of them earns less than 150 million rubles, which means that they can be taxed under a simplified regime. For the period 2019-2021, according to investigators, the accused did not pay taxes to the budget of more than 918 million rubles. In addition, she is accused of legalizing (laundering) more than 43 million rubles obtained by criminal means.
On Thursday, Blinovskaya was arrested at the Russian-Belarusian border. On a rental Maybach, with a security guard and a driver, she attempted to leave Russia. At the same time, in order to confuse the minds of law enforcement agencies, Blinovskaya on the eve deliberately bought a ticket for the Moscow-Tashkent flight. Investigators are currently investigating who notified Blinovskaya of their upcoming visit, after which the lady attempted to escape.
Later it became known that Blinovskaya fully admitted her guilt and repented of her deed. She was charged with tax evasion and large-scale money laundering.
For money laundering, blogger Elena Blinovskaya faces up to 7 years in prison, lawyers believe. “Blinovskaya is charged with the same set of ‘blogging’ charges that were previously brought against Chekalin,” the RG expert pointed out earlier. “Tax evasion by an individual on a particularly large scale is a crime of minor gravity, for which the penalty ranges from a fine ( 200-500 thousand rubles) to three years in prison.”
