The businessman is accused of complicity in a particularly large-scale embezzlement and transfer abroad of 358 million rubles, allocated by the Rusnano company for the creation of an enterprise for the production of nanovaccines and therapeutic biological products against influenza. Last year, Glavatsky was sentenced to seven years in prison. However, this decision was overturned by the Moscow City Court due to violations of the Criminal Procedure Code (CPC) during the consideration of the case by the first instance court.
