MOSCOW (AP) — Russian police have launched a criminal investigation into the embezzlement of 90 million rubles (about $3 million) of state funds during the refurbishment of Moscow’s legendary Bolshoi Theater.

Interior Ministry officials said Thursday a contractor, PO Teplotekhnik, received the money for work on the theater’s electrical system despite not fulfilling its contract, Russian news agencies reported. The company couldn’t immediately be reached for comment.
