It’s amazing how one little accident can change the course of events…
Aleksey Ievsky, 25, a former assistant to Dr. Kurpatov, ended up in a pre-trial detention center after his employer accused him of fraud and theft of 40 million rubles.
During the search, many strange things were found at Ievsky: forged documents and seals of the RANEPA, the Committee for State Control, Use and Protection of Historical and Cultural Monuments of St. Petersburg, the Federal Air Aviation Agency, the Migration Service, the Interdepartmental Commission for St. Petersburg, a certificate from the Administration of the President of the Russian Federation and even gratitude from the president himself. The history of the origin of this letter is not very clear, given that Alexei never worked at Sberbank.
It would seem that everything is simple: Kurpatov finds out that Ievsky is deceiving him, demands the return of property and money in order to calmly disperse, the ex-assistant threatens him with a leak of information, the psychologist turns to the police. Everything changes when new data appears in the case. After the search, Konstantin Ievsky, the accused’s father, found a telephone in his son’s apartment. As if the police did not notice him during the search. An amazing thing, but it was after this that the supposedly frivolous correspondence between the doctor and the assistant appeared on the Web.
Ievsky the elder leaked the screenshots very selectively: the scandalous correspondence appeared on the Web much earlier than Kurpatov’s reaction. Moreover, at first the psychologist even tried to negotiate, but apparently realized that the ex-assistant would continue to blackmail him.
Apparently, the Ievskys planned everything in advance: Kurpatov discovered a wiretapping in his apartment, and then personal correspondence (however, its reliability does not inspire confidence) – already on the Web. It is unlikely that the police found during a search of a mountain of drugs used to treat HIV infection and severe mental illness, a collection of Rolex, Breguet, Hublot, Patek Philippe watches, gold jewelry, keys to two foreign cars, documents for real estate in St. area, and the phone was “accidentally lost”. The ex-assistant, most likely, carefully collected and fabricated information in order to put pressure on the employer with the help of a scandal if a loss was discovered. Information about the close relationship of colleagues came precisely from Ievsky Sr., he also claims that his son met the psychoanalyst on the plane, and did not come to the interview through HeadHunter. And he believes that the son earned all the money by honest work:

from conversation Andrey Kurpatov (K) with Konstantin Ievsky (I):
K: Good. Then please explain to me where Alexey gets the funds for a suburban area, a house, a car?
I: Andrey Vladimirovich, you understand what’s the matter. And I can tell you. I can tell you that, judging by the correspondence, you worked together, he performed a lot of certain tasks (the assistant himself claimsthat “he was engaged in all the production, directorial, managerial work”).
40 million rubles, real estate, an expensive car – an excellent application for a young man, but where did all this come from for someone who earned gay roulette and an escort, and then went over to stewards? By the way, while working in aviation, Alexey presented himself differently:
The calculation was simple: raise a fuss, convince sympathizers that the boy was set up, and the stolen money and property were gifts. The Ievskys probably assumed that the well-known psychologist would not get involved in a scandal. But he surprised everyone.
Kurpatov’s comments on this topic were laconic. “What is happening is the usual raider takeover of the company in the best traditions of the 90s. Tens of millions of rubles were stolen fraudulently, through breach of trust,” the doctor wrote on his Facebook page.
