Ukrainian citizen Roman Vishnyak, who is a defendant in the case of top blogger Lerchek (Valeria Chekalina), pleaded guilty to withdrawing a large sum abroad. This was reported by TASS with reference to a source in law enforcement agencies.
"Vishnyak decided to plead guilty in full and cooperate with the investigation. At the moment, the measure of restraint has been softened for him," the agency's interlocutor said.
The Troitsky Court of Moscow confirmed that the court refused to extend Vishnyak's measure of restraint in the form of house arrest.
As reported by EADaily, the defendants in the case, except for Lerchek and Vishnyak, is the former husband of the blogger Artem Chekalin (Artemchik). The charge was brought under Part 3 of Article 193.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (making currency transactions for transferring funds to non-resident accounts using forged documents). We are talking about the sale of fitness marathons Lerchek.
According to investigators, the attackers produced an information product — a fitness marathon, which was sold to Russians via the Internet. At the same time, contracts were concluded with foreign legal entities, and payment was received to the accounts of a foreign bank.
Vishnyak is the co-founder of LLC "Leitik make-up", which is engaged in the wholesale sale of cosmetics.
At the end of May, the former spouses Chekalin's house arrest was extended until June 26 of this year.
