Whatever you may think of Major Dymovsky—whether as a provocateur, a hero, a madman, or an honest police officer. He is now being held in pretrial detention (SIZO, a Russian remand prison) on charges of embezzling 27,000 rubles. Obviously, even if he did take those 27,000 rubles, he is capable of compensating for the damage. And it is equally obvious that Major Dymovsky poses no danger to society at this point. Yet he is sitting in pretrial detention. And will most likely receive a prison sentence by court verdict. And then there is, for example, Elena Skrynnik.
The country’s largest business newspaper has published this little diagram and an article that makes your jaw drop. While heading the state-owned company Rosagroleasing, Elena Skrynnik and her relatives somehow casually became multimillionaires. The article, in particular, contains direct—and not anonymous—accusations that Skrynnik forced Rosagroleasing clients to open deposits in a bank she controlled.
And nothing. As if that were perfectly normal. No attention at all. Really, she should at the very least be removed from office—or at least sent on leave—until all the circumstances are clarified. But who is going to deal with that? Everyone is busy. Sitting on anti-corruption commissions.
