Court again arrests accounts of mother of activist Antonova
The bank accounts of the mother of the Krasnodar activist, Yana Antonova, have been arrested by a court ruling. According to Antonova, a total of 1.3 million roubles are blocked.
The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that in October 2019, Yana Antonova's home was searched within the case of money laundering by the Anti-Corruption Foundation (known as the FBK)*. Her seriously ill mother was interrogated, and the pensioner's accounts were arrested. The mother had saved up about five million roubles, including from the sale of an apartment in order to take care for her disabled son. Then, the activist treated the blocking of her mother's accounts as a form of pressure. Antonova said that on November 4, 2020, the arrest was removed from her mother's accounts.
According to Yana Antonova, investigators have notified her mother, the 69-year-old Zoya Shipilova, that by a court ruling the arrest of her accounts was resumed within the FBK* case.
The activist has reported that her mother's accounts keep 1.3 million roubles, which she saved for her sick son from the income from the family apiary.
The "Caucasian Knot" has also reported that on March 12, law enforcers searched the apartments of the advocate, Mikhail Benyash, and the activist, Yana Antonova, in Krasnodar. Antonova linked the searches with the picket she held against the special operation in Ukraine.
