A number of law-enforcement and customs officers finished inspecting the papers of Krasnolesye car center at 3 PM on January 23, 2008. The spokesperson for the center reports the officers withdrew copies of the company’s accounting documents, even though the company believes there is no ground for suspecting them of anything illegitimate.

In the meantime, most Yekaterinburg car centers are to undergo inspections related to tax evasion, undeclared wages, and violations of customs regulations as well as to the numerous complaints made by the customers who are unhappy with the sales procedures.
