Putin: investigation of Oboronservice case is objective and will be brought to end

MOSCOW. April 25 (Interfax) - President Vladimir Putin has promised that the investigation of embezzlement at Oboronservice will be brought to the end and noted that the probe was launched after he became Supreme Commander-in-Chief.

"I am drawing your attention to the fact that not so much time passed after my return to the post of Supreme Commander-in-Chief when these cases were launched," he said during a hotline with the nation on Thursday.

"I think that it is self-evident that nobody obstructed their launch. More than that - law enforcement bodies were pointed out to the fact that there are problems there," the president said.

"The investigation is progressing objectively and will be brought to the end," Putin said.
