The former official and nine other defendants were found guilty of embezzlement of 2 billion rubles.

On December 6, it was reported that in St. Petersburg, the head of the correctional colony was detained in a case of receiving a bribe. It was noted that the defendant had agreed with a convict serving a sentence in a penal colony for organizing contract killings so that he would create unfavorable conditions for other convicts, forcing them to pay bribes for non-detection of violations.
