The defendant in the case of bribery during the execution of a state defense order for the construction of a military clinic in St. Petersburg owes more than 2 billion rubles.
The debt was incurred due to the failure to fulfill obligations under the contract for the construction and reconstruction of buildings in the military town of the International Mine Action Center of the Russian Armed Forces.
This became known during the investigation in Moscow of a criminal case against three former employees of one of the companies for receiving a bribe, RIA Novosti writes.
They are suspected of abuse of office while fulfilling state defense orders.
The head of the construction company was also caught giving a bribe.
Based on an agreement concluded in 2021, the customer went to court to demand that the company pay more than 2 billion rubles for unfulfilled contractual obligations.
It is emphasized that the debt under the contract amounts to more than 1.7 billion rubles.
The court ruled in favor of the plaintiff. It ordered the debt under the contract to be paid and a penalty of more than 300 million rubles.
