Damage to 2.8 billion rubles. was refunded during the investigation, but it does not affect the composition of the presented Vasilyeva charges, said agency spokesman Vladimir Markin.

The refusal by the Ministry of Defense of the claims against Evgenia Vasilyeva not affect the characterization of the case. This was stated by the Investigation Committee.
