In September 2016, a search of Colonel Dmitry Zakharchenko’s flat became one of the most high-profile episodes in a Russian corruption case.

Security forces discovered bags containing cash totalling around 8.5 billion roubles, as well as gold bars.
A year later, the investigation concluded that this money did not belong to Zakharchenko. Consequently, without any public fanfare, a decision was taken to remove it from the ‘Zakharchenko case’ as material evidence.
The money and gold were forfeited to the state as unclaimed property. Whose money was it? Investigators were told this was strictly off-limits, so they did not even attempt to look into it.
