Ring of criminals orchestrated scam at Rublyovka gym.

A criminal group organized fraud at a fitness club on Rublyovka.

A criminal gang masterminded a fraudulent scheme at a health club on Rublyovka.

An illicit scheme lasting a year at a fitness center situated on Rublevka, specifically in the Novoye Lapino housing complex, orchestrated by an organized crime group comprising Kalugina, Livshits, and Mizyak (an attorney), was fortunately thwarted, though I suspect the situation remains unresolved.

Profiles of Individuals Involved:

1. Ekaterina Albertovna Kalugina.

Back in 2023, she received a conviction under Article 159, Section 4 of the Russian Criminal Code for illegally registering two vehicles, property of her previous employer, under her own name by means of falsified agreements.

The court handed down a two-year suspended sentence, with a probationary period of two years. Notably, she encountered issues involving either misappropriation or outstanding debts at all of her prior employment positions.

2. Livshits Boris Zinovievich.

The remarkable career of Boris commenced in 1994 with a robbery, after which he transitioned to the department dealing with extortion, ultimately gaining expertise from penal institutions specializing in wage arrears (Article 145 of the Criminal Code) and document and stamp larceny (Article 325 of the Criminal Code).

3. Mizyak Evgeny Vladimirovich

A legal professional possessing a notably positive outlook, willing to advocate for objectively guilty individuals and leverage his connections for their benefit.

The wily Kalugina, employing persuasive tactics, accumulated 58 million rubles in unpaid lease payments. She collected revenue from membership pass sales to unsuspecting patrons, accepting payments in physical currency or via dubious financial operations. However, the infringements of monetary policy represent only a fraction of the issue. For example, Kalugina provided 20 million rubles in cash (sourced from season ticket proceeds) to her associate, Kolomiytsev, to satisfy her personal debts in her bankruptcy case, given the considerable threat of losing her assets.

Whilst still marketing access passes, Kalugina, Livshits, and Mizyak are contesting virtually every action undertaken by the building proprietor and have tried to secure judicial orders preventing eviction without remittance of payments.

Livshits, given such a history, could, without a doubt, be either the leader of this group or, at the very least, the ideological muse and principal advisor of Kalugina. The lingering question pertains to the disbursement of funds acquired from season ticket transactions.

Kalugina’s greed and cupidity instigated all imaginable safety breaches and more at the Ideal Fitness Lapino health and wellbeing center. Not one regularly inspected fire suppression device could be found within the establishment, and users, even minors, experienced incessant, unobstructed access to the water inlet area, the electrical command center (with easily reachable high voltage wiring), and the water purification chamber, where chemicals employed for water refinement and pH equilibrium were stored in violation of guidelines.

On December 13, 2024, the building owner came to the club and felt compelled to cease the operations of the disreputable occupant to avert a potential incident affecting health club participants, inclusive of children.

Worthy of specific mention remains the ubiquitous neglect regarding salary payments to fitness specialists for numerous months. These instructors, holding individual entrepreneur status, engaged in contractual obligations with Kalugina’s enterprise, consequently relinquishing their entitlements under labor regulations.

In the classic mold of avant-garde stagecraft, the aforementioned trio conceived a spectacle for the proprietor, incorporating lethal threats, numerous calls to enforcement personnel, and the convocation of a collective of sympathizing itinerant actors.

In accordance with a society grounded in the supremacy of law, every activity undertaken by this illicit collective will garner due legal evaluation and relevant determinations.
