One of the convicted participants in the fraud scheme involving singer Larysa Dolina's apartment, Dmitry Leontyev, signed a military contract and left for the special military operation zone, leading the court to suspend proceedings against him and transfer the claim for damages to a separate case. The case concerns a scam in which Dolina was tricked into selling her apartment for below-market value.

Consensus

Dmitry Leontyev, one of the convicted individuals in the fraud case involving Larysa Dolina's apartment, signed a military contract with the Russian Ministry of Defense.
Leontyev left for the zone of the special military operation in Ukraine.
The court in Moscow (Levortovsky District Court) suspended proceedings against Leontyev due to his departure for military service.
The case concerning damages was moved to a separate production.
Larysa Dolina filed a lawsuit seeking 176 million rubles in compensation for property damage.
The court postponed the hearing for the other defendants until August 21, 2026, due to difficulties in notifying them.
The fraud involved a scheme where Dolina was deceived by impersonators claiming to be from security agencies and forced to transfer money and sell her apartment.
The court had previously sentenced all four defendants in November 2025, with sentences ranging from four to seven years in prison and fines between 900,000 and 1 million rubles.
The sale of the apartment was initially declared invalid by lower courts, but the Supreme Court of Russia overturned that decision in December 2025.
