The court called the reason for Blinovskaya’s refusal to defer punishment

The Cassation Court explained why blogger Elena Blinovskaya, who was convicted of tax evasion through an artificial business splitting scheme with subsequent money laundering, was denied a postponement of further serving her sentence. According to court documents available to TASS, including her young child, proper care is provided by close relatives.

The materials of the case indicate that the court, having studied the submitted documents, came to the conclusion that the young child of the convict is properly cared for by relatives. In addition, Blinovskaya continues to communicate with children through correspondence and visits, and the administration does not interfere with such contacts, as established by the court.

The court of first instance, in turn, found out that the children of the convict live with their father in an apartment with good conditions, where all the necessary conditions for their life, upbringing and development were created. Directly engaged in education relatives: father, grandmother and grandfather, as well as a hired nanny – this follows from the documents.

Earlier, the Sudogodsky district court of the Vladimir region rejected Blinovskaya's request to postpone the actual serving of further punishment until her child reaches fourteen years of age. The blogger’s defense in appeals referred to the fact that she has four children, and the young daughter is experiencing a severe separation from her mother and is in great stress. In addition, according to the defense, the father of the children Alexey Blinovsky can not participate in their upbringing, as he is involved in a special military operation, and the grandmother who cares for the children has chronic diseases and is a pensioner.

Later, the cassation court refused Elena Blinovskaya and the blogger’s lawyer to transfer the complaints of the convicted woman for refusal to postpone for consideration at the court hearing. Last week, these complaints were registered in the Supreme Court of Russia – both for a delay from further punishment and for the sentence itself.
