On Tuesday, the prosecutor's office announced that they are investigating two different cases. In one case, there is a suspicion that Isamaa received 110,000 euros in prohibited donations. In the other case, there is a suspicion that Isamaa received 220,000 euros in prohibited donations. On Tuesday, Taavi Pern did not say which legal entity is related to the 220,000 euro donation. On Wednesday, Pruunsild's defense attorney Paul Keres said that the suspicion has been presented against Parvel Pruunsild as a legal entity.
Keres said that Pruunsild is not a legal entity and therefore cannot make donations as one. He added that the prosecutor's office has a different opinion on this matter. Taavi Pern said that the information about presenting the suspicion to Pruunsild as a legal entity is not true. He explained that the suspicion states that Pruunsild is suspected along with two other individuals, one of whom is a legal entity.
Pern said that Pruunsild financed the activities of a legal entity that helped Isamaa. The name of the legal entity is not public because the prosecutor's office wants to disclose it only when the information becomes public through other means. According to the suspicion, Pruunsild, Palts, and the legal entity made prohibited donations to Isamaa between 2021 and 2023. In total, these amount to at least 200,004 euros.
Paul Keres said that Pern is lying. He stated that the suspicion clearly says that Pruunsild is suspected of making a donation as a legal entity. Keres said that Pern's explanation is false and that the suspicion is clear.
