According to Kommersant sources, one of the accused in receiving bribes, football referee Andrei Fisenko used the recommendations of artificial intelligence (AI) to form a defensive position. In particular, the defendant on his advice refused the first testimony and said that he gave them under pressure from the investigation.

About the detention of Andrei Fisenko, the representative of the Ministry of Internal Affairs Irina Volk told in March 2026. According to the investigation, the management of FC Khimki in 2023 transferred 2 million rubles to the referee before the match with FC Alania. As a result, the game ended with the score 4: 1 in favor of the Moscow team.

According to the interlocutor of Kommersant, during testimony on February 27, the arbitrator admitted guilt in receiving a bribe and repented. However, on April 16, he consulted AI app DeepSeek on how to retract old testimony. In the end, the app came up with a legend according to which the arbitrator “was in shock after the arrest.” DeepSeek also suggested that the defendant claim that he received the money not to influence the result of the match, but as a bonus for good refereeing.

In the criminal case itself, the Prosecutor General’s Office approved the indictment. The case was sent to the Akhmatovsky District Court of Grozny for consideration.
