The first verdict was handed down in the case of the supply of dry rations with multi-billion dollar damage

In Moscow, a court sentenced the top manager of the Gryazinsky Food Plant, Elvira Smirnova, to four years in a general regime colony in the case of supplying low-quality dry rations. TASS writes about this.

She was also fined one and a half million rubles. The woman admitted her guilt and testified against other defendants. Smirnova's case was heard behind closed doors. She was found guilty of causing damage worth nine billion rubles.

The main defendant in the case is Army General Dmitry Bulgakov, along with him are also two co-owners of the Gryazinsky Food Plant - Alexander Mikhailenko and Valery Kovalevich.

According to the investigation, Bulgakov acted in the interests of the Gryazinsky Food Plant. Under him, a system was created where low-quality food was supplied to the troops at an inflated cost, and the general himself could receive kickbacks from supplies.
