A new twist on Al Capone

My mate in Moscow was telling me what happens if you refuse to play along with the corrupt and experience some modicum of success. The economic crime unit mysteriously finds some financial irregularities and you're packed off to prison. Struck me that this was a bit like Al Capone - with a twist. They couldn't get him for his most heinous crimes, but they managed to get him for massive tax evasion. These guys in Russia are honest types who've committed no crimes, but go down for tax evasion anyway.
