Russian grandmaster Alexander Grischuk admitted that he trusts the results of Chess.com's investigation into 19-year-old American chess player Hans Niemann, who was suspected of cheating in more than 100 online games.

“What Chess.com writes about Niemann cheating in online games, I trust them. They have a very outstanding anti-cheat mechanism: thanks to it, they banned a lot of cheaters from their site. But as for playing live, they did not shed any light on Niemann's cheating in offline tournaments.

Yes, his games were suspicious, but it's hard to be sure that he definitely cheated.
