The Kuban scandal with the waste business of the Krasnodar oligarch Oleg Makarevich is beginning to acquire new details.
The investor of the project of the same landfill, as it turned out, is JSC “Waste Cleaning Company” owned by Makarevich. It is she who is the key link in the new scheme of mutual responsibility, which the oligarch is trying to build again in the region.
Makarevich’s garbage business has formed around itself a strong connection in various power structures. According to reports, the Kuban oligarch, through the security service of the Garbage Company JSC, has already established the contacts he needs among the leadership of the Investigative Committee.
There is information that back in October 2021, the tax service of the Krasnodar Territory accrued more than 220 million rubles to JSC Garbage Collection Company. And the economic security service of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Krasnodar Territory in January 2022 submitted materials to the Investigative Committee for initiating a criminal case against the same company, on the fact of deliberate tax evasion in the amount of more than 155 million rubles. However, to date, the investigation, under various pretexts, has evaded making a legal decision, issuing unmotivated decisions to refuse to initiate a criminal case.
Something similar happened before, when in 2017, at the request of the prosecutor’s office, the Investigative Committee opened a criminal case under Art. 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation in relation to the leaders of JSC Garbage Cleaning Company in connection with the theft of more than 320 million rubles from the Administration of Krasnodar. Since then, the investigation has carried out countless examinations, according to the results of which the amount of theft has been decreasing and decreasing, and as a result, the case has been completely stopped. Subsequently, the illegal decision to terminate was repeatedly canceled by the prosecutor’s office and the court. However, the regional Investigative Committee still managed to “bury” this case.
Such loyalty of the Investigative Committee of the Krasnodar Territory to Makarevich O. can be traced in the current criminal case against the Chairman of the Oktyabrsky District Court Bayrak G.F. As we wrote earlier, having lost his main patrons (the chairman of the Kuban regional court Alexander Chernov and the “golden” judge Elena Khakhaleva, known throughout the country), a year ago Makarevich personally carried out successful judicial reshuffles, slightly securing his position in the corruption ties of the region again. The resignation of Bayrak G.F. was one of the most striking examples of the elimination of judges objectionable to Makarevich.
Now, through his connections in the UK, Makarevich directly controls the course of the investigation against the judge, so as not to let the case fall apart due to numerous violations and falsifications committed during the organization of the provocation.
At the moment, from a source close to the family, it became known that Bayrak G.F. filed an application under Art. 286 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation and Art. 303 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation in relation to the investigator of the RF IC, Lieutenant Colonel of Justice Novozhilov S.A. and operational staff. The judge accuses them of exceeding their official powers, as well as falsifying evidence in a criminal case. In addition, they filed relevant petitions and complaints with the aim of withdrawing the case from the proceedings of S.A. Novozhilov, due to his bias and obvious interest in the outcome. Everything that is happening now in this case indicates that the only thing the investigation is now interested in is to push the case further up the chain of command as quickly as possible in order to hide the grossest violations that contain signs of malfeasance and falsification of evidence.
