In Moscow, Nizhny Novgorod businessman Dmitry Kartushin was arrested. He owns the company "Geo-Gid", which provides legal services and handles real estate matters. The court ordered him held in custody.
Information about the arrest appeared in the registry of courts of general jurisdiction of the city of Moscow. The Tagansky District Court made the decision on the preventive measure. Kartushin has already filed an appeal, but it has not yet been considered.
According to the publication "Kommersant-Privolzhye", the case is connected to a government contract that "Geo-Gid" signed with the Social Insurance Fund of Russia back in December 2014. At that time Kartushin’s company was commissioned to carry out a technical and economic audit of the Social Insurance Fund’s real estate nationwide. The contract amounted to 220 million rubles.
Later the client raised complaints about the second part of the work performed. The contractor was asked to redo everything and pay a fine of 1.1 million rubles. Despite this, the audit was ultimately accepted and paid for in full.
There have been no official comments from the Ministry of Internal Affairs on the nature of the charges yet.
Earlier it was reported that former deputy mayor of Nizhny Novgorod Ilya Shtokman was kept in a pre-trial detention center.
