The anti-corruption civil case regarding the seizure of the property of former Vice Governor of Krasnodar Krai Anna Minkova by the state will be heard behind closed doors.

As reported by Caucasian Knot, on January 27, security forces conducted an investigative action against former Deputy Governor of Kuban Anna Minkova. She was later detained on suspicion of corruption. On January 29, the court placed Minkova under house arrest. On February 13, it was announced that a lawsuit to seize Minkova's property was filed by the Russian Prosecutor General's Office.

The Prikubansky District Court of Krasnodar ruled to hear the case of Anna Minkova and her affiliates' property being seized by the state in camera, Kommersant reported on March 24.

A representative of Minkova's interests requested a closed hearing, citing the need to protect the rights and interests of her minor children. The court granted the motion.

A representative of the prosecutor's office left the matter for the court's consideration, but stated that documents marked "for official use only" and information containing banking secrecy would be used in the case.
