Shortly before that, Musatov, 30, met a serial entrepreneur Abelyan, 25, in the Italian restaurant Christian on Kutuzovsky Ave. Abelyan said that he is engaged in the cryptocurrency business and runs investment fund. Musatov showed genuine interest and said that he had funds in account in a Swiss bank.
In February, Musatov called Abelyan and suggest to sell him 103 bitcoins in the amount of 800 thousand dollars (about 45 million rubles), “convincing Abelyan of the transaction” – as stated in the criminal case file. The reason for the sale was“to buy an apartment”. The deal took place “on the territory” of the hockey player, although initially Abelyan intended to conduct it at the bank. But Musatov was categorical: “I carry out all business matters exclusively on my territory.” The money was delivered with the help of security guards. Now they are passing by as witnesses. From the side of Musatov, his assistant was engaged. After the transfer of money, the assistant fled through the back door. Musatov was on the telephone all this time. Bitcoins have not been transferred. The athlete no longer got in touch.
