The VChK-OGPU turned out to have the materials of the case of extortion against members of the team of Ksenia Sobchak, from which it is clear how the attitude of the Main Directorate of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Moscow towards Ksenia herself changed. In the first days of the investigation, questions about Sobchak were asked non-stop to detainees and witnesses. The entire investigation was sharpened “on Sobchak.” Then documents were presented (employment agreements) and evidence was given that Sobchak owned the Extinguish Light channel, she gave the editors information about the party with the participation of Bokarev, Chemizov and Mashitsky, etc. However, by that time, the mother of Ksenia Sobchak, Senator Lyudmila Narusova, had talked to the victim Chemezov, after which Ksenia returned to the country, met with the head of Rostec and apologized to him. After that, the interest of investigators in the person of Sobchak dropped to zero. They didn’t even interrogate her. And in the indictment, all the testimony and other data are completely ignored. It is simply said that the Sobchak team received information about the party “under circumstances not established by the investigation,” etc.

An explosion occurred in the building of a private American Academy of Music in the center of Paris. The explosion was so powerful that it completely destroyed the building, which was adjacent to the former military hospital. In addition, a strong fire started in the building opposite. In addition to rescuers, the military and the mayor of the city arrived at the scene. The official cause of the explosion has not yet been named, the authorities say that at the moment it is not possible to establish it. However, it is widely believed that gas was the cause of the explosion. Although gas in the houses of the capital of France is a rarity.

Alexander Bastrykin visited yesterday the homeland of his eminent Belarusian namesake. The VChK-OGPU drew attention to Bastrykin’s companion: in addition to the generals, the RF IC in Brest was represented by Aleksey Aleksandrovich Bastrykin. The young man was present at a meeting of the board of investigators of the two countries, and then in the forefront went to lay flowers at the memorial of the Brest Fortress. So far, these are rare shots when Alexander and Alexei Bastrykin can be seen together, but we do not exclude that the young man will more often flash in the photo on the right hand of the head of the TFR. Everything is according to the old tradition of Lukashenko, who has been accompanied by his son Nikolai for many years. Probably, Operation Successor also began in the Bastrykin dynasty: most recently, Alexei Bastrykin spoke at the St. Petersburg International Legal Forum, where he discussed a new vector for the development of relations between Russia and Asia.

“In a casino, only the one who owns this casino wins!” “We invite for cooperation companies that need recycling: tires, glass, plastic, films, rubber products, paper, cardboard, household appliances, computer equipment and equipment, cable and wire products, textiles, shoes, ferrous and non-ferrous metals. As well as distributors of products from: tires, metals, glass, plastic, textiles, household appliances, polyethylene, cardboard and paper shavings. (taken from the site:). For many years, the Dmitrov RTI Plant (DZRTI) has been conducting its illegal activities in the field of waste management. The maximum capacity of the equipment is no more than 40,000 tons per year! The masses of waste collected and disposed of exceed hundreds of thousands. Everyone would have clarified the figures for electricity consumption, which would make it possible to understand how much waste the plant processed. But this is the most secret information at the plant. Having only the equipment of the Danish company ELDAN, which is capable of processing only rubber products, DZRTI broadcasts the “magic” capabilities of this equipment on the recycling market and openly publishes it on its website, which causes laughter in the professional industry. This “magic” equipment can recycle everything in the world, almost for nothing! Manufacturers and importers who cooperate with DZRTI under the ERP (Extended Producer and Importer Responsibility) seem to be playing in a casino with Rosprirodnadzor. The bet will play – the report will be accepted, no, alas, oh! (remember Samsung and its multi-million dollar fines to the state budget). In addition to Samsung, another case of violation is also known: during an unscheduled inspection of the Dmitrov RTI plant, the regulator found that the company had written off a third of the waste. “Lost” goods may end up in a landfill, instead of becoming recyclable, noted in the PPC REO. The choice of DZRTI as a utilizer is based only on the corruption component and the price, which is much lower than the market and is unable to cover all the expenses of the pseudo-utilizer for the collection, transportation and disposal of waste. These amounts can only be enough to write out “fake” Recycling Acts for their unfortunate clients. Inviting future clients to audit its “magic” capacities, it likes to build imaginary heaps of waste out of tires. Within the walls of the “Potemkin village” built from tires, there can be anything, for example, an underground casino! You know, sometimes it’s hard to get rid of old bad habits!

The release of ex-general Denis Sugrobov with honors from the employees of the Federal Penitentiary Service, who took him out of the colony in cars without license plates, testifies to the rank of the former head of the GUEBiPK. During his time in prison, he did not lose his authority in certain circles. This is evidenced by the comparison of the release of Sugrobov with the parole of the ex-general of the ICR Denis Nikandrov, who a few years ago left the colony with his feet to the waiting public.

A source of the Cheka-OGPU said that Andrei Turchak was indeed operated on at the weekend. A simple surgical intervention was required as a result of a household injury, and not a wound. Colleagues in the party decided to support Andrei Anatolyevich and reported on the allegedly heroic origin of “the deterioration of his health”, in order to give in narrow circles a good reason for his absence at the beginning of this week in Moscow. But it did not work out very well and I had to cancel the “combat wound”.

As it became known to the Cheka-OGPU, the TFR announced the end of the investigation to the adviser to the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, the former head of the police chief of St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region, Sergei Umnov. In the final wording, the investigation reclassified the accusations against the general from abuse of power (Article 285 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation) to numerous episodes of taking especially large bribes (290 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). The retraining was accompanied by a new series of searches, including representatives of the St. Petersburg car market. The fact is that the investigation sees expensive foreign cars used by the generals themselves and their entourage as bribes. These cars also passed through the “Fund for Assistance to the Programs of the Central Internal Affairs Directorate of St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region”, manipulations with which became the reason for the arrest of three generals last summer. After the presentation of new charges, the editorial office of the Cheka-OGPU received a speech from the adviser to the minister. “… The investigation takes the usual method, worn out for a long time to holes – the retraining of the criminal case for a more serious composition. And again, nothing new. And again, there is no need to provide any evidence in court … And on April 7, 2023, Friday, evening, time 18:05, the working day has already ended. Darkness descends on the city outside the window. The investigator looks at the newly printed decision to initiate a criminal case under Art. 290, takes a fountain pen in his hand and, grinning maliciously, puts his signature …. What “Hydra” Umnov stepped on the tail? Why is the investigation so brazenly and frankly falsifying the case…. Benefiting the state has become dangerous and criminal. You will end up behind bars at best. It is safer to be indifferent to everything – the country, people, subordinates, but at the same time be in a public position …. Not a single general, not a single head of the Main Directorate, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation can now be sure that even if he accidentally presses someone’s sensitive part of the body, he will not end up in the dungeons at best.

Sources of the VChK-OGPU report that despite the fact that “the NVO is going according to plan,” the city authorities are looking for ways to “pull out” the sagging budget and support the war. Naturally, at the expense of Muscovites. Here are some sources for the treasury that was empty due to the war. Globally, residents of Moscow and guests of the capital have been ripped off and will be ripped off even more with the help of parking lots and cameras. Most of the video systems (in February 2022, the authorities announced a large-scale replenishment, more than a thousand new cameras on the Moscow Ring Road alone) have already been installed and connected to the networks of the data center. It’s not a secret for anyone that the places for the cameras are not selected for reasons of road safety, but are mounted in places where there is the greatest likelihood for drivers to commit violations (sometimes forced). In addition, the mayor’s office is unhappy with the fact that there are fewer “green crocodiles” on the streets – tow trucks that take Muscovites’ cars to paid parking fines. It is expected to expand the staff of organizations and increase tariffs for these “services” after the election of the mayor of Moscow. Another option to get a quick cash, which is already working, was a tacit instruction to sabotage any alternative options for buying city property except for cash. Thus, official dealers filter out buyers, since most of those who have intentions most likely have some kind of right to purchase on preferential terms. The calculation is simple – to sell more expensive to those who can afford to buy square meters at the market price and immediately. As for humanitarian aid, municipalities (employees of prefectures, administrations, departments, the State Budgetary Institution) and activists of United Russia organize the collection of everything that is possible for “participants of the NWO and residents of the liberated territories.” The photo shows a list of information required from the information board in the usual entrance of a residential building in the South Administrative District. Caring and patriotic Muscovites are invited to buy periscopes, chainsaws, gas and much more. 90% of the listed should be provided by the competent departments and authorities, but it is proposed to purchase Muscovites. The list of literature for purchase deserves special attention: the Constitution, Legal education, Famous people of Russia …

The Moscow City Court approved a three-month extension of the arrest of Wall Street Journal journalist Evan Gershkovich. He is accused of espionage. The US Ambassador attended the pre-trial meeting but was unable to speak to Hershkowitz. She complained that the Russian authorities did not give consular access to their arrested citizen. Earlier, the Cheka-OGPU managed to talk with the organizer of the last interview with American journalist Evan Gershkovich, a political strategist from Yekaterinburg, Yaroslav Shirshikov. He to smithereens smashed the FSB version that the journalist was engaged in espionage activities. On the day of his arrest, Gershkovich arrived to meet with Yevgeny Roizman. Moreover, Gershkovich sent official requests to the Ministry of Defense and received permission for interviews concerning this department in the region. A good “spy” is one who notifies the Ministry of Defense of his plans in an official letter and asks permission.

Volleyball center of Novosibirsk – “Lokomotiv-Arena” – fell under the batch of local construction showdowns. The sports center is out of business, but the developer “Flourish” is trying to squeeze the area around the arena from the city administration, which has planned a large-scale project to resettle dilapidated housing and landscaping at the cost of 2 billion rubles. The forces in the dispute were distributed as follows: on the side of “Flourishing” – the Federal Antimonopoly Service, prosecutors and the developer’s brother – State Duma deputy Dmitry Savelyev, and on the side of others – faith in justice and the townspeople. “Breaking” “Flourishing” is that for its intended purpose – the construction of reliable and modern housing – the developer does not work. The company unlawfully buys up plots, overestimates the number of storeys, demolishes cultural heritage sites and builds human shelters on this site. The brother of the head of Blooming, Dmitry Savelyev, also serves as a support and foundation for crooked schemes instead of serving the people: he personally lobbies the interests of the company, arranges agreements with the prosecutor’s office of the Russian Federation and the Federal Antimonopoly Service. The latter recently issued an order to cancel the results of a land auction for a plot near the Lokomotiv Arena in order to help Bloom in the fight for the land. In addition to this proactive activity, Savelyev goes to court, but already on a personal issue: the State Duma deputy is offended by publications about ties with Bloom and the mass buying of votes in the Novosibirsk City Council. Although witnesses in court from among officials and deputies claim that this is true. Well, the local mayor’s office, obviously, is tired of the constant problems of “Flourishing”, which are a heavy burden on the city. In Novosibirsk, there are already about 12 thousand apartments from Blooming, which no one wants to buy. The reason is the total distrust of residents to the developer. There are too many disappointed buyers, too many scandals around the “Raszvetaevsky” construction projects. The Novosibirsk mayor’s office appealed against the FAS order in the hope that the lawlessness would stop and the cynical developer would not be able to take the territory near the Lokomotiv Arena, despite Savelyev’s efforts.

VChK-OGPU source about Shoigu: “Everyone thinks that Shoigu is weak, passive and a character written off on the political front. But let us recall that the current Minister of Defense has been in Russian politics for more than 30 years, and in top positions. And it would be strange to think that he has no ambitions. Especially to get the highest position. Shoigu managed to defend the generals personally devoted to him. He managed not to send a personal guard (the so-called reserve) to the war. He is now extremely active in the media. And if something happens to Putin, then there is no doubt that in the conditions of the war, Shoigu will become the interim president (and there is nothing more permanent than temporary). So the Russians should prepare for interesting times.”

The largest crypto project in the UAE is a planned scam. An investigation by European journalists has been announced, confirmed by the conclusions of a number of reputable law firms, including those from the United Arab Emirates and Israel. Before publication, the materials will be sent to all global regulators of the crypto industry, the largest crypto communities and projects that could potentially be involved in illegal activities and suffer financially or reputationally. All the declared goals of the project, and public persons representing it, are elements of the Potemkin village built by the fraudster Alibek Issaev, who is on the international wanted list, for murder and terrorism. This is not Issaev’s first attempt to enter the international level, under the auspices of regulated companies from the UAE. A few years ago, he tried to sell the YzerChat project (at that time the only officially registered messenger in the UAE, integrated with local mobile operators). At that time, the deal with investors was also disrupted, and also, after the exposure of the project’s affiliation with Issaev, and his fraudulent actions with the project. The UAE mobile operators immediately terminated partnership agreements with the project, Apple and Google removed the application from the stores, and investors who lost their prepayment were lucky enough to keep the principal. Apparently, the same ending awaits Venom. And to the regulator of the UAE, there will be big questions about the quality of regulation and the transparency of market participants. Below are the project companies registered in the UAE.

Three years of struggle between ex-lawyer Aleksey Kovrizhkin and the Moscow Chamber of Lawyers for status ended in nothing for a friend of the M FSB department. Lawyer Kovrizhkin became known for his defense of Igor Lyakhovets, head of the Department of Internal Affairs for ZAO, accused of falsifying a case against journalist Ivan Golunov. But right before the hearing of the case, Lyakhovets lost his status. The Chamber of Lawyers of Moscow kicked Kovrizhkin out of its ranks the second time for a not entirely correct bribe of 5 million rubles to the well-known investigator of the central apparatus of the ICR Sergey Dubinsky and his subordinate Alexei Trinev. They then complained to the chamber about the provocation of a bribe by a lawyer. At first, the chamber did not notice the violations, but then decided that Kovrizhkin had sinned by secretly collaborating with the M department of the FSB of Russia and secretly recording everyone on a dictaphone. Kovrizhkin complained about the chamber to the court, but there they took a break, deciding to wait for the verdict to the investigators of the TFR. The verdict was also not the first time. First, the case of Dubinsky was heard by the chairman of the Basmanny District Court, Irina Vyrysheva. But her sentence was canceled by the Moscow City Court for gross violations: the announced result was very different in the reasoning part from the sentence issued on paper. From the second time, Dubinsky received the same 6 years in prison, and Trinev 7 years and seven months. As the Cheka-OGPU found out, Dubinsky had already been released, he was released from punishment due to illness. Judge Irina Vyrysheva resigned as chairman of the main district court for the TFR and returned to the Moscow City Court to her friend Elena Guchenkova to the composition of the criminal cases in the first instance. And the opera from the management of M, with whom Kovrizhkin was friends, was transferred to another department, he turned out to be the son of an FSB general and also got into the dictaphone recordings of the now former lawyer.

French security forces, together with engineers, continue to investigate the building of the American Academy that exploded in the center of Paris. Several departments work together. At the moment, the collapses are being investigated with the help of a drone from all sides. The French authorities have not yet figured out the cause of the explosion, but they report that the explosion is related to gas, but what caused it is still not clear. The explosion was so powerful that the glass was shattered in a radius of at least 100 meters. Some interviewed witnesses say that there was a smell of gas before the explosion. During the night, the number of victims of the explosion increased to 50, another one is being sought.

Businessman Alexander Shamsutdinov in the Tula region has a reputation as the main sports patron and patron of regional hockey. In January of this year, he was appointed Advisor to the First Vice-President of the Russian Hockey Federation Roman Rotenberg. Obviously, Shamsutdinov sees the new position only as another step in the hockey bureaucratic hierarchy. The crust of Rotenberg’s adviser opens up before him the prospect of participating in the ambitious federal-level hockey project “Russia 25”, which is carried out within the framework of the state program “Development of Physical Culture and Sports” (in 2018-2020 alone, more than 115 billion rubles). And besides this, the Night Hockey League, created on the initiative and direct participation of who knows. Tula Governor Alexei Dyumin, sincerely rooting for sporting achievements and the authority of the region, provides comprehensive support to the Mikhailov Academy hockey club, sponsored by Shamsutdinov’s Poliplast JSC company. However, surrounded by the small-town Tula oligarch, they say that he has already complained more than once that the regional scale and the attention of the governor have become too small for him. It seems that Shamsutdinov has already mastered Tula as a financial and material base for his growing ambitions, having received the right to build a polymer production for the construction industry and funds for the development of the region’s sports infrastructure. The region spent more than 1.2 billion rubles in 2022 alone on the training of high-class athletes and on elite sports and the same amount in the current year. However, the results of the hockey club sponsored by Shamsutdinov are not yet impressive. If you look at it, it’s like sponsorship is the other way around: it’s not he who supports the region, but the region of his business. Against this background, the mess in the life of the Tula hockey club “Academy Mikhailov” looks quite logical. In the Tula media, criticism or at least an adequate assessment of Shamsutdinov’s activities is now taboo, but reality still breaks through in the form of revelations from former team players. For example, recently the former goalkeeper of AKM, Belarusian Dmitry Milchakov, was surprised at the kaleidoscopic speed of the change of command staff, the strange decisions of the coaching staff, etc. There is nothing strange in this, since the functioning of the Mikhailov Academy is not built on sports principles, it is based on making money on kickbacks, cutting budget funds, leapfrog in personnel, using AKM as a social elevator for a single person from Tula, who is already practically overstepped the authority and reputation of the legendary Boris Mikhailov, the governor of Dyumin, and now he has approached the leadership of the FHR.
