The prosecutor’s office of the Krasnoyarsk Territory in Russia announced that she had stopped the work of a large mining hotel: the equipment was placed in several rented rooms and beyond, which caused power supply of power supply at the neighboring polyclinic.

The organizer of the cryptocurrency mining farm in 2024 received a technical permit to connect two premises of the workshop that stopped the production of pulp and paper plant. The entrepreneur placed in the premises of the mining device, installed additional blocks with equipment on the territory of the plant, and also mounted several cable lines with transformers, the security forces said.

“The most dangerous is not the theft of electricity, but what network it has connected to. It turned out that the same section of the power grid also nourishes socially significant objects, including the local clinic. The colossal load from the mining hotel has already led to interruptions in the power supply of the medical institution in January of this year, ”the supervisory authority explained.

The prosecutors demanded that the electric grid company limit the supply of electricity to mining. Now the businessman is being checked for compliance with land and tax legislation, as well as fire safety rules, the prosecutor’s office said.

According to the security forces, the accused together with the accomplices sold equipment transferred by customers for accommodation in the data center, and assigned the money. The damage amounted to more than 270 million rubles.
