The Main Investigation Department of the Investigative Committee has established further facts of corruption in the Ministry of Defense. As expected by the Cheka-OGPU, new defendants have appeared in the high-profile criminal case of the theft of 2 billion rubles during the supply of bulletproof vests to the Piket Group of Companies for the Russian military in the combat zone in Ukraine. Investigators found that the implementation of the government contract was accompanied by the receipt of bribes by as yet unidentified officials of the military department. Based on this fact, a criminal case has already been opened for giving a bribe on an especially large scale (Part 5 of Article 291 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation) and mediation in the transfer of a bribe (Part 4 of Article 291.1).

In particular, pensioner Semenikhin, who is placed in a pre-trial detention center, is accused of mediation. Justifying the need for his detention, the investigation asked the court to take into account that “not all witnesses and other accomplices of the crime were identified and interrogated, not all objects and documents relevant to the criminal case were seized, and all episodes of the criminal activities of the defendants were not identified.” Apparently, we should expect new arrests in the Ministry of Defense. Initiating a criminal case for receiving a bribe on an especially large scale (Part 6 of Article 290 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation) is a matter of time.
