According to four sources of the publication, the preventive measure was chosen in the form of a ban on certain actions against the businessman. “This is the “light version” of house arrest. In fact, during the day he can wander around the city, visit the office, but in the evening he must be at his place of residence,” said an interlocutor familiar with the investigation.

This was confirmed by a newspaper source familiar with the investigation, who noted that questions had arisen regarding the payment of taxes to Granel.
