The Federal Tax Service is trying to reduce the size of Game Insight's current debt to employees from Russia
The Interregional Inspectorate for the Largest Taxpayers No. 7 filed an application to the Arbitration Court against the actions of Denis Kachura, the bankruptcy trustee in the bankruptcy case of Game Insight in Russia. He allegedly included more people in the register with employees of the Russian "daughter" of Game Insight, to whom she owed salaries and severance payments, than went to court.
The inspectorate writes that 259 people were included in the register, and only 126 reached the court. According to the department's logic, this means that only half of the developers want to receive money from the company.
In addition, the tax authorities note, Kachura attached to the bankruptcy case materials only summary tables compiled by him without employment contracts, timesheets and other primary documents. As a result, he distorted the information, so the data from his reports cannot be trusted.
The inspection statement says that formally, the amount of Game Insight's current debt to Russian employees is 54.8 million rubles. But she doubts that the company owes that much. According to the tax authorities, the amount should be much less.
Kachura responded by writing a large post on social media in which he denied the accusation. He stated that it makes no sense for him to "invent debts to employees." He will not get any benefit from this, given that his own salary does not depend on the amount of debt owed by Game Insight.
Also, according to Kachura, the amount of debt from the inspection's complaint coincides with his data.
"Coincidentally, this debt is struggling with the data that the liquidator gave me, not to a penny, but to a sufficient extent, it is struggling with budget funds, with data from the tax service itself in several regions, with employees' claims satisfied by the courts (in claims, however, the amounts are usually slightly higher, because there all sorts of other compensations, fines, etc.) with the materials of the criminal case, etc.," Kachura said.
