Elena Blinovskaya paid off a debt of 140 million rubles. At a hearing to extend the preventive measure in the First Court of Appeal of Moscow, the blogger asked to be released under house arrest so that she could spend more time with her children.
Dear Court, I support the position of my defense. I have been in custody for more than four months and admit my guilt. My family and I are trying to pay off our taxes, but just this past week we found a mechanism that I hope will help pay off our taxes.
For the last 1.5 years I have been deprived of the opportunity to work. I am the mother of four small children and deprived of communication with them; in four months I once had the opportunity to talk with the children for 15 minutes. And I was never allowed to talk again.
I ask you to choose a different measure of restraint for me. The most important thing is that my children will no longer be orphans with a living mother.
UPD. Blinovskaya was left under arrest. The court rejected the appeal.
