During execution of the state contract of 1 October 2011, providing sanitary maintenance of the insides and premises of the military camp No 8, the senior officials of OAO Slavyanka concluded an agreement with OOO Farm-Active, which in its turn concluded a contract with OOO Moskovia. Later Kubinsky branch of Slavyanka registered acceptance certificates of services in the period between November 2011 and June 2012, but in fact the cleaning of premises was carried out by conscripts.

According to investigators, Yepifanov received from the CEO of Moskovia the acceptance certificates, and gave his subordinates orders to sign them on behalf the head of military unit 55338. Then, having access to the official stamp, he stamped each certificate, by that confirming that the outside organizations allegedly rendered services in the interests of the military camp and within the stated period of time. As a result of those wrongdoings the state suffered loss of 39 million rubles.
