That’s how Balmam herself described what was happening to the investigation:
“As a condition for concluding a contract with the Ukrainian side, Koryak M.Yu. He indicated the need to lay a large amount of cash in the bank cell in the amount of 20 million euros in the bank cell. As I understood from the words of Koryak M.Yu., the indicated amount will be the remuneration of persons who will lobby for the conclusion of the contract with the Ukrainian side. Koryak M.Yu. He pledged to organize the signing of the contract no later than May 2011 inclusive.
The erected amount of money for laying in a bank cell was provided to me by my business partner Slipenchuk Mikhail Viktorovich on a loan. On March 09, 2011, cash laying was made in the amount of 20 million euros in a bank cell in the branch of Sberbank of Russia, which is located at the address: Moscow Gogolevsky Boulevard 19/2. The premises of funds in the specified branch of the bank were the requirement of Koryak M.Yu. ”.
