On 7 August 2012, Lebedev’s 13-year sentence was reduced by 3 years and 4 months by a district court judge in the Arkhangelsk region city of Velsk, where Lebedev had been imprisoned. This action came as a result of the prosecutor’s office requesting a re-qualification of Lebedev’s offenses due to the passage of a new legal statute in the Russian Criminal Code which reduced the punishment for offenses of which he had been convicted.
Platon Lebedev (then chairman of Menatep’s board) was summoned to testify before the Prosecutor General’s Office on 2 July 2003 in connection with an investigation into the embezzlement state funds.
