In St. Petersburg, the employees of the Peterhof museum were found guilty of complicity in multi-million dollar embezzlement. According to the united press service of the city courts, the defendants in the case will not have to go to the colony.
The leading engineer of the restoration department, Dmitry Demin, and the head of the same department, Dmitry Dorokhin, were in the dock.
“The accomplices committed complicity to the deputy general director of the Peterhof GMZ Sorokin in stealing the funds of the Peterhof GMZ entrusted to the latter, in the amount of 27,709,977, 97 rubles and 14,916,787.69 rubles,” the department said.
