Arrested Blogger Andrei Sidorov Admits Fraud, Faces Lenient Sentence

Blogger Andrei Sidorov, wanted since 2023 for fraud, was arrested in Krasnodar last August. He allegedly defrauded over 40 people of 8.3 million rubles, using the proceeds to buy a Lamborghini worth 22 million rubles. The case status is now proceeding in a special procedure at the Savelsky Court of Moscow.

Sidorov, charged with 40 counts of fraud under part 4 of article 159 of the Criminal Code, admitted his guilt. His lavish purchase of a Lamborghini, costing over 22 million rubles, raised eyebrows. The Tverskoy District Court later sentenced him to detention. The special procedure in his case status allows for a potentially more lenient sentence, with the punishment not exceeding two-thirds of the prescribed term.

Andrei Sidorov's fraudulent activities, which caused significant financial harm to numerous victims, have led to his arrest and conviction. The special procedure in his case status reflects the severity of his crimes and the need for appropriate justice.
