RT obtained screenshots of correspondence from a closed chat of employees.
On December 27, one of the participants in the chat was outraged by the fines and wrote that "soon the mezik [as the workers call the warehouse] will burn."
At the same time, on the day of the fire, he said that he had allegedly set fire to the warehouse. However, later the man began to retract his words and claim that the "opera" came to him with a check.
Soon after, the man deleted the account.
According to RT's source in law enforcement agencies, these reports will be checked as part of the criminal case that has already been initiated.
Earlier, Wildberries denied RT information that during a large fire in the warehouse of the trading platform in St. Petersburg, the fire alarm did not work.
