Criticism

On 12 August 2019 the Anti-Corruption Foundation and Lyubov Sobol accused Boris Ebzeyev of illegal enrichment. According to the investigation, Boris Ebzeyev has a grandson, Arthur Borisovich Ebzeev. He was 4 years old, when he entered into a contract of purchasing an apartment in Moscow’s elite Ostozhenka district with the area of 274.2 m². Its market value estimated at 500 million rubles. Then a 7-year-old child made a deal with an offshore from the British Virgin Islands and sold this apartment, buying a house in Rublyovka.
