The Moscow City Court began to consider the merits of the case of the former deputy defense Minister.

On November 26, the former deputy minister decided to transfer the Pankratovo estate in the Tver Region worth more than 800 million rubles to the state. At the same time, the court declared him bankrupt. Ivanov's father did not agree with the claim of the Prosecutor General's Office and asked the court not to deprive him of two motorcycles that were donated by his son.

The former deputy minister was detained on April 23, 2024. He was charged with receiving a bribe. According to the investigation, Ivanov entered into a criminal conspiracy with the heads of contractors who worked at the facilities of the Ministry of Defense, and concluded contracts with them in exchange for personal remuneration. In July, he was sentenced to 13 years in a penal colony and ordered to pay a fine of 100 million rubles.
