The farmer Vadim Moshkovich was sent to the Russian Federation for lattice

This is the loudest arrest for many years about a big businessman in Russia. Reuters writes about it. Moshkovich staged a court in a glass cage of the bourgeois court of Moscow, shrouded in shackles, holding the book of David Iglmen in his hands "The Brain" and a bottle of water. Moshkovich faces up to 10 years in prison. The businessman himself did not plead guilty of charges.

"Vadim Moshkovich's founder was sent to the pre -trial detention center," the Moscow City Judicial Service reported, adding that the court rejected the petition of his attorneys to elect him a precaution in the form of house arrest or collateral. The arrest of Moshkovich, who began with the sale of computers in the chaos of post -Soviet Russia, and then created one of the most powerful agricultural holdings in the country, caused a shock among the Russian business elite.

The Kremlin has not yet commented on arrest. According to the Moscow Stock Exchange, market capitalization "Rusagro", a leading Russian producer of sugar, pork, oils and fats, fell into a third on a third on the background of this news. Roszma reported that the Federal Security Service (FSB) and anti-corruption police conducted searches at the offices of Rusargo companies in Moscow and other cities, as well as in top executives and seized files, phones and servers.

The reasons for the arrest are unclear, although the leading Russian media noted that Vadim Moshkovich was involved in a long legal conflict with the founders of a large supplier of vegetable oils and fats "Sun Products", whose assets were bought by Rusagro in 2018. Vadim Moshkovich was born in 1967 in Moscow, graduated from a mathematical school. Since 2006 he has represented the Federation of the Belgorod region.

His powers were to end in October 2015, but he made them ahead of schedule in December 2014. At that time, he owned not only Rusagro, but also the A101 developer company, which in 2015 sold the Bin Mikhail Gutseriev group for $ 700 million. The main asset of Vadim Moshkovich - "Rusagro" - was founded in 2004. He started from the Belgorod region, where the headquarters of the holding is located.

In 2022, Moshkovich himself came under the personal restrictions of the European Union after attending a meeting of businessmen with President Vladimir Putin on the day of a full -scale invasion of Russia into Ukraine. The EU stated that he had Russian and Cyprus passports. Now Moshkovich does not have a Cypriot passport, but is a citizen of Israel. At the same time, Vadim Moshkovich started problems, property and money were arrested. After that, bankruptcy of the holding assets began.

In 2024, the State Duma deputies asked the Ministry of Justice to recognize Vadim Moshkovich as a foreign agent because the parent company "Rusagro" - ROS AGRO PLC - was registered in Cyprus. We will remind, in mid -March it became known that Hungary promised to block the vote of the European Union on the continuation of sanctions against citizens of the Russian Federation involved in the war and invasion of Ukraine.
