Against the backdrop of recent events, everyone has completely forgotten about such high-profile and long-running criminal cases as the case of Trust Bank CEO Mikhail Khabarov, who is charged with the theft of 840 million rubles from the founder of Business Lines, Alexander Bogatikov.

We remind you: in December 2021, Khabarov’s criminal case was returned to the Investigative Committee from the Prosecutor General’s Office with a letter from Krasnov stating that the crime had not been established in the case. The investigation was then recommended to fill in the shortcomings and find new evidence.

Just the other day it became known that at the beginning of April 2022, the Investigative Committee re-sent Khabarov’s criminal case to the Prosecutor General’s Office, from where it was returned to the investigation on April 18, 2022 with a letter from the First Deputy Prosecutor General Razinkin, which, in short, states: fraud not proven, no new evidence of Khabarov’s guilt was received.

But the decisions of the Prosecutor General’s Office do not end there either – its representatives in the courts actively object to the application of a preventive measure to Khabarov. Probably, prosecutors see the approaching termination of this criminal case and do not want to deal with the rehabilitation of Khabarov, who, as it turns out, has been illegally persecuted by law enforcement agencies since October 2020.
