The VChK-OGPU became aware of the details of the criminal case of extortion at the request of the “Croatian wallet” Vladimir Putin and the common-law husband of Moscow Vice Mayor Anastasia Rakova, businessman Kreshimir Filipovich. His confidant in the transfer of money was the head of the campaign headquarters of Sergei Sobyanin. And they took into custody the ex-head of the company that participated in the “Putin’s Palace” project in Gelendzhik. It all started with the fact that in March last year, a message came to Filipovich’s phone demanding 2 million euros for non-dissemination of information “discrediting and disgracing K. Filipovich, which can cause significant harm to the rights and legitimate interests of K. Filipovich and members of his family.” Kreshimir involved in the negotiations a confidant – one of the leaders of the campaign headquarters of Sergei Sobyanin, when he was elected to the post of governor of the Tyumen region, PR and deputy Dmitry Ogulchansky. He held a meeting next to the hotel “Ukraine” with a counterpart, where he was told about the presence of compromising evidence about the financial, economic and entrepreneurial activities of Filipovich, as well as about his personal life. All this, according to opponents, can have an extremely negative impact on Kreshimir’s reputation not only as a businessman, but also as a family man. The piquancy is added by the fact that a woman and a former director of a company, which, judging by the name, is related to Filipovich’s company Velesstroy, which is a tenant of premises in the Putin Palace in Gelendzhik, was arrested in a criminal case.

The editors of the Cheka-OGPU received an appeal from residents of the Karachaevsky district of Karachay-Cherkessia, in which they ask the head of the TFR Alexander Bastrykin to pay attention to the connection between the recent attack on the deputy head of the treasury of the KChR, Murat Elkanov, and the investigation into the murder of deputy Islam Krymshmkhalov. Residents are afraid for their safety and claim that “the destabilization is connected with a showdown within the organized crime group (Salpagarov-Elkanov-Kushcheterov) involved in the murders and attempts, in which a split occurred.” Murat Elkanov (called “treasurer” in criminal circles) is the brother of the former head of the Karachay district, Dakhir Elkanov, who is on the international wanted list for organizing the murder of Islam Krymshamkhalov, a deputy of the KChR parliament. In interrogations, members of the gang of killers named Eldar Salpagarov, director of the Operations Directorate of the Great Stavropol Canal, as the customer of the murder. Salpagarov and Elkanov turned to Nazim Kushcheterov with an order to eliminate the deputy, his gang carried out orders to kill politicians. He himself fled, in Russia he was convicted along with three other defendants for the murder of Shebzukhov, an adviser to the president of the KChR, committed by order of ex-senator Arashukov. In addition to the elimination of Krymshamkhalov, Dakhir Elkanov ordered from Kushcheterov an attempt on the life of the deputy head of the treasury, Nagornova, after which his brother took this position. Recently, between Salpagarov, Elkanov, on the one hand, and Kushcheterov, on the other, there has been a discord. The brother of Dakhir Elkanov (“treasurer”) was attacked by bandits with whom the Elkanovs and Salpagarov were in the same organized criminal group. Two months earlier, Murat Elkanov himself had beaten gang member Arsen Chagarov in the gym. Chagarov returned “with an answer”, in the video he beats the official with a bat. The “treasurer” was accompanied by the judge of the Arbitration Court Kazbek Salpagarov, a cousin of Eldar Salpagarov, convicted of having connections with crime. The investigator of the ICR, who is in charge of the murder of Krymshamkhalov, does not take any measures to detain Eldar Salpagarov, despite the testimony, the polygraph and other evidence. The inaction of the investigator, about whom the brother of the murdered deputy has already complained, and attempts to hide the real picture from Bastrykin can lead to irreparable consequences, in the region – a new round of rampant crime and destabilization of the situation.

Ilya Grashchenkov, political strategist of the New People party, was caught in financial fraud. Internet Media Agency LLC and the Regional Policy Development Center (CRRP) registered on it have zero people in the state. The first structure is unprofitable, the second does not conduct any financial and economic activity at all. However, in 2022, Grashchenkov bought an apartment in Moscow with a cadastral value of 14 million rubles, and a year earlier, a Mercedes-Benz GLE. Now law enforcement agencies will deal with the political strategist’s shadow income. The threads will also be drawn to the CRRP, whose expert council includes such prominent “chicks of Surkov’s nest” as the adviser to the head of the Ministry of Economics Maxim Meyer, the vice-governor of the Yaroslavl region Andrei Kolyadin, the ex-head of Rosmolodezh Sergey Belokonev, who fell for corruption, and others. parliamentary party “New People”. Which Grashchenkov publicized in such a way that he actually accused the president of stealing the program from the leader of the new people, Alexei Nechaev. The political scientist “in the black” earns tens of millions of rubles in election campaigns. And obviously played with liberal rhetoric. At the present time, speculation on the protest, accompanied by financial fraud and non-payment of taxes, is a real gift to the investigator.

The Cheka-OGPU became aware of a scandal in the family of Roman Abramovich’s partner, the former highest paid senator from Chukotka, Efim Malkin. The billionaire took his 7-year-old daughter from his ex-wife Anastasia Gulynskaya for the weekend and has not given up for several days. The unfortunate father had already tried to take the child from his mother earlier (according to Malkin’s statements, bailiffs and KDN were nimble), but he lost the court, and the employees who drove the oligarch’s car and falsified materials were punished. At the same time, he threatened to steal his daughter, but he “matured”, apparently only recently. Now Malkin is afraid that he will no longer return the girl to her mother. The billionaire turns the child against Anastasia and forbids him to communicate with anyone other than him. The nanny was able to stealthily convey that, under pain of death, she was also forbidden to call the mother of the child. Malkin said that he would make his daughter an Israeli passport, as he did with himself, and take him to a villa in France. Despite the fact that the billionaire is under sanctions, he owns real estate and accounts in Europe through nominees (a French company) and not without the help of his senior comrade Roman Abramovich. As for the villa, it is located in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat (a resort in the south-east of France, on the Cape of the Cote d’Azur) not far from the fashionable Grand Hotel. Not so long ago, a major reconstruction was made there and a new house was erected. Efim Malkin does not have much in common with Russia: despite last year’s statements about the exit from the capital of Prodo (a number of brands around the poultry farm, the most famous Troyekurovo), he still remained the owner of the company’s shares. But the most important thing is the obligations to Roman Abramovich as his representative in large offices. Malkin has long acted as an intermediary from the oligarch and even in such a difficult time lobbies for the interests of the patron at the level of ministers of key departments.

Members of the Irkutsk group of security forces, FSB officers Polyakov and Chernikov were convicted. They were sentenced to 14 and 13 years of strict regime, respectively, with deprivation of military ranks. At one time, after the publications of the Cheka-OGPU, the case against the employees of the FSB of the Russian Federation Sergey Polyakov and Yuri Chernikov was transferred to the Main Investigative Directorate of the TFR of Russia from the 3rd Supreme Military District of the Armed Forces of the Investigative Committee of Russia for the Central Military District. Polyakov and Chernikov were arrested for racketeering. They roamed the extraction of gold and its processing for huge sums. Then they were detained with the active participation of officers of the Organized Crime Control Department of the Criminal Investigation Department of the Irkutsk region. And they began to “protect” gold mining …. employees of the OBOP, headed by Dmitry Pashkov. The latter had a faithful ally in this matter – looking Pavel Borisov, nicknamed Big. He is a protege of thief in law Vladimir Tyurin (Tyurik). As a result, the profit was divided between the OBOP and the thief in law. Then Pashkov was arrested. And when the operatives were about to receive Pasha Bolshoi, he died abruptly under strange circumstances – he allegedly poisoned himself with alcohol. But Pashkov was replaced by other officers of the OBOP, and instead of Borisov, Tyurik appointed another supervisor – Mikhail Bolsheshchapov. Otherwise, all schemes have been preserved. The case against FSB officers Sergey Polyakov and Yury Chernikova was investigated by investigators of the 3rd Military Security Service of the Armed Forces of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation for the Central Military District and police officers of the OBOP UUR of the Internal Affairs Directorate of the Irkutsk Region for money, they let them go on dates with their wives, ride around the city, and allowed them to arrange feasts with soft drugs right in the investigator’s offices etc. As a result, a case was initiated against investigator Aslan Nashev. He immediately expressed a desire to cooperate with the investigation and testified against her accomplice, an OBOP officer Bannikov.

We tell you who is behind the system of kickbacks on the completion of houses for deceived equity holders, which was revealed in Krasnodar. At the end of January, it became known about the detention of 37-year-old Alexander Pavlyuchenko, director of Stroy Communications LLC, which concluded agreements with the regional Fund for the Protection of the Rights of Shareholders to complete the construction of a number of problematic facilities. Pavlyuchenko and two of his comrades were suspected of commercial bribery – they demanded kickbacks in the amount of 7% from companies involved as contractors for the completion of houses. The scheme was implemented by the director of the Regional Construction Company NJSC, the former deputy head of Sochi, Alexei Sokolov, on behalf of the mayor of Krasnodar and the ex-deputy governor of the Kuban for construction, Yevgeny Naumov. The latter lobbied in 2022 for the appointment of Sokolov to a company subordinate to the regional construction department, created to solve the problem of deceived equity holders. Under the protection and on behalf of Naumov, the Sokolov team, which included Alexander Pavlyuchenko, the president of the Thai boxing federation of the Krasnodar Territory Yegor Panfutov and Oleg Balakirev, took money from all subcontractors of the Regional Construction Company and the Fund for the Protection of the Rights of Citizens – Participants in Shared Construction in Krasnodar edge”. The roles in the kickback system were distributed as follows: Alexander Pavlyuchenko was responsible for signing contracts and financial documents, Yegor Panfutov was responsible for security issues and political relations, and Oleg Balakirev was responsible for transferring the kickbacks received to Alexei Sokolov and Mikhail Varsegov, director of the regional Fund for the Protection of Shareholders’ Rights. Three participants in the scheme – Pavlyuchenko and two of his comrades – are already under investigation.

In the video, which turned out to be at the disposal of the Cheka-OGPU, the Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Ground Forces, ex-plenipotentiary of the President of the Russian Federation Alexander Matovnikov, who is the senior operational group of the Ground Forces of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in Belarus. An avid connoisseur of Minsk restaurants and ladies, General Matovnikov likes to shift the responsibility for making decisions to his subordinate officers. The general is more involved in creating similar video content for his girlfriends. Russia sent the “best” representatives of the generals to support Alexander Grigoryevich. Therefore, what happened at the Machulishchi airfield in Belarus should not be surprised.

RBC and Vedomosti journalist Oksana Goncharova, who was beaten for 15 years by the father of her young children and is under investigation for the murder of a sadist’s ex-husband at the time of another attack, is on the verge of yet another disaster. The brother of the murdered man wants to take children away from Oksana, depriving her of parental rights. Even before the New Year, he managed not only to quickly arrange temporary custody of Oksana’s sons in Elektrostal near Moscow, but also quickly take them to Anapa – to his place of residence. There are no children of their own in the brother’s family. In the life of the younger sons of Oksana, the brother of the murdered did not take any part, and one might even say ignored both them and Oksana, the children were virtually unfamiliar with him. Now, the unexpected participation in the lives of children yesterday by a completely stranger to them raises many questions. Recall that when adopting children left without parental care, the state provides social benefits. Monthly remuneration for a foster parent – 18,150 rubles. Monthly payment for a foster child under the age of 12 – 18,937 rubles. For a child from 12 to 18 years old – 25, 249 rubles. In addition, a one-time payment is provided for adoption, which in 2022 amounted to a total of 80 thousand rubles. Now the youngest Arseniy is 3 years old. The eldest Matthew is 10 years old. Oksana also has the only apartment in which her eldest son, Oksana herself and younger children are registered. What will happen to this apartment after adoption is still unclear. Until the New Year, the brother of the deceased did not object to the communication of Oksana’s eldest son with his younger brothers, it was even about coming to Anapa. The brother of the deceased also did not interfere with the transfer of gifts and letters from the mother to the children, organized by Oksana’s friends. The situation changed dramatically after the New Year holidays. The temporary guardian stopped sending gifts and letters to the children, and forbade Oksana’s eldest son from any communication with the brothers. It turned out that in January the brother of the murdered man filed a lawsuit with the city court of Anapa demanding to deprive Oksana of parental rights, although the investigation is still ongoing, and there is no court verdict. Oksana, contrary to the current norms of the Civil Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, found out about the preliminary meeting on this claim after the fact: she was not only not informed of the intention to deprive her of parental rights and was not given the right to familiarize herself with the claims, but was not given a legal opportunity to take part in the meeting via video link . If the court makes a positive decision on March 6, this will have several dire consequences at once. The main thing: children to lose their mother. What is the true purpose of such lightning-fast actions of a temporary guardian who asks the court to apply an exceptional measure of responsibility to the mother of minors?! All of this is still a mystery. There is also reason to believe that the situation will not end with this, and further we will talk about the establishment of permanent guardianship by the brother of the murdered. In this case, it will become almost impossible to return the children, even if Oksana is acquitted.

Samara governor Dmitry Azarov stole a bridge from Yakutia? The Investigative Committee decides on the issue of bringing to justice the initiators of the Klimovsky bridge construction project (the Tolyatti Bypass concession). Will the team of the Samara governor Dmitry Azarov, who wrote the president into a scam for more than 200 billion rubles, answer? Or will only scapegoat Olesya Gladkova (ex-directress of the initiator of the project – InfraKAP LLC) who falsified the justification of the concession for Dmitry Azarov for 10 million and 10 days by order of the Ministry of Transport SO, serve time? The feds are raising the stakes. The locals want to hush it up. The situation is under the control of the head of the FSB and Alexander Bastrykin, and he is not indifferent to the Samara region. Therefore, arguments and resources are on the side of Muscovites. Subordinates of Alexander Bastrykin are considering a matter of principle: if those responsible for deceiving the president are not punished, then fake concessions will be sculpted on the stream. Why, for example, are the Yakuts lost, who since 1985 have been begging to connect their capital with the federal road network? They need a bridge across the Lena, but it still doesn’t exist. The Sakhalin Bridge has been discussed for more than a hundred years, but it still does not exist either. Hypothetically necessary, but unprofitable. At the same time, the bridge across the Lena has the prospect of payback and it has a clear effect on the economy of the diamond region. But the treasury of the Ministry of Transport is empty for the Yakuts: their money was taken by the dodger Azarov. While everyone honestly considered, this one simply lied and rolled! Almost. The Investigative Committee should pay attention to the masters of the concession shop from InfrKAP. They acted as consultants and, at the same time, initiators of the Azarov concession. From 2008 to 2014, the founder of the company, Professor Alexander Bazhenov, headed the PPP Directorate of Vnesheconombank. The scapegoat Olesya Gladkova dangled in his orbit at VEB and now, even sitting behind bars, is listed as his partner. Through the efforts of Bazhenov, the development bank turned into a black hole: as of 2016, half of the assets were problematic. The loss of the state corporation by 2016 amounted to 500 billion rubles. Colossal damage to the state corporation, for example, was brought by Bazhenov’s project – JSC “Corporation for the Development of the North Caucasus.” This is a daughter of VEB, which is famous for its promises to turn Minvody into Freiburg, which ended in the criminal case of the Bilalov brothers. The professor was miraculously not imprisoned, but VEB was asked to leave. Bazhenov was not very sad against the background of the ruins he had left. Soon, the maestro of concessions was already sharing his rich Caucasian experience with Dmitry Azarov. As a result of their communication, the Samara region received a giant capstroy for 140 billion rubles, regarding which no one knows why it is needed and where the region will get 61 billion rubles from. to its content?

A resident of Novokuibyshevsk created a petition “Leave Novokuibyshevsk artesian water!”, asking Governor Azarov, Commissioner for Human Rights Galtsova and Minister of Health Benyan to exclude Novokuibyshevsk from the Clean Water project and include it in the Clean Air federal project aimed at improving the environmental conditions and reduction of emissions of pollutants into the air: In the Samara region, the onco-epidemiological situation is unfavorable, but in the list of regions with an extremely unfavorable situation, all regions, except for one, have soft or very soft drinking water. In Novokuibyshevsk, cancer incidence is in 5th place in the region. “The incidence of malignant neoplasms was significantly higher than in other territories in the cities of Samara (507.3), Chapaevsk (479.6), Tolyatti (475.0), Syzran (470.4), Novokuibyshevsk (465.0) … » (page 12). Although Samara and Tolyatti drink both from the Volga and artesian water, and in Syzran and Chapaevsk artesian water is softer than Novokuibyshev! And the most prosperous city in the region in terms of cancer incidence is Oktyabrsk, where the water is artesian, hard (albeit softer than ours), but there are no chemical industries. Novokuibyshevsk, with its hard water and emissions from factories in terms of cancer incidence, lags behind cities with soft water, so why are we being scared? The situation in rural areas is more indicative. Let’s bring together data on health risk factors, as well as statistics on neoplasms from the report of Rospotrebnadzor for the Samara region (“On the state of sanitary and epidemiological well-being of the population in the Samara region in 2021” -), which states: “The main indicators of groundwater pollution, exploited aquifers in the city of. Samara, Syzran, Chapaevsk, Novokuibyshevsk and in the areas of Bezenchuksky, Kinelsky, Syzransky, Volzhsky, Shentalinsky are mineralization, hardness, sulfates, chlorides. It was also noted that “the causes of groundwater pollution are mainly the pulling up of substandard natural waters in case of violation of the operation mode of water intakes”). The situation in terms of cancer incidence is as follows: those who drink non-artesian soft water Borsky (with one additional risk factor) and the quite prosperous Neftegorsky districts take 4th and 6th places, respectively. Those who drink “terrible” hard water and have one additional risk factor each, the Volzhsky and Shentalinsky districts take 24th and 25th places, and the completely prosperous Kamyshlinsky district with artesian water closes the list – 26th place out of 26 (among villages), that is, the incidence of cancer there is the lowest. And here the statistics refute the danger of hard water. But if we consider that the incidence of these diseases depends on the hardness of the water, then what if, having extended Samara water to us, they want to bring the incidence rate to Samara? What is this, an experiment? It turns out that water from an improved source (WHO) is exchanged for water from a dirty source (SP), pipes and appliances will be destroyed even more, in dry years, due to low water, the regions of the Lower Volga will suffer more, and we will probably get sick more . So what is the real meaning of this? Leave us our clean water! We do not need to add phenol with petroleum products, and even poisonous chlorine! Enough of our dirty air! Exclude Novokuibyshevsk from the Clean Water project and include it in the Clean Air federal project aimed at improving the environmental situation and reducing emissions of pollutants into the air. There are also federal funds. Hear us! We are never asked about anything, our opinion is not taken into account! We shout: “Suffocate!” – they don’t hear us. We ask: “Return the beach on the Volga so that you can leave the city to breathe” – they don’t hear us. We beg: “Set up city medicine, you won’t get to the doctors!” – they don’t hear us. Hear us at least now! We, the residents of Novokuibyshevsk, taxpayers and voters.

The Tatarstan edition of InKazan published an article about social investments and charity of large enterprises. The topic is fertile, especially popular against the background of the concept proposed by Belousov with a voluntary tax and the question of how, in this case, to take into account the investments of enterprises in the social sector, support for children, sports, and so on. No solution, of course, is offered in the material. But of particular interest is the comment of local expert Yevgeny Zhemkov, who, in response to information about the Tatarstan TAIF group, which allegedly spent $ 9 billion (!) On social investments, directly says that most of this money has nothing to do with the social sphere. Inside a high-profile sum, including the cost of toys in the form of personal villas, apartments for top managers and so on. Zhemkov, by the way, knows what he is talking about – he is a retired KGB/FSB colonel, look about him in open sources. Let’s not completely belittle the merits of TAIF – after all, it was once one of the largest enterprises in the country, a backbone for the Republic of Tatarstan. They, for example, sincerely invested in the reconstruction of Bolgar. But when drawing beautiful figures, one must still have a conscience. And to ascribe to charity almost 4.5 billion dollars of the accrued industrial coefficient for the energy tariff is already out of bounds. If we subtract, where they exaggerated a little bit more, and how much “social investment” was spent on the construction of elite housing or shifting from pocket to pocket … But you can’t hide it from the system. So after all, they may be asked to answer for the bazaar to report on social needs the difference between the declared and the real. And there is only one tariff – the whole annual budget of such a large region as Tatarstan!

A trick, rare in impudence, was issued by Alexei Moiseev, Deputy Minister of Finance, leaving for Alrosa. On his instructions, the head of the financial policy department, Ivan Chebeskov, helping businessmen friendly to Moiseev, at the same time canceled the most important decrees of Vladimir Putin and authorized the possibility of buying a foreign asset, without the approval of this transaction by the Government’s special commission for monitoring foreign investment. In official letter No. 05-06-11/8570 signed by the department, Chebeskov, whose main noticeable fact in his biography is that he received both of his higher educations in the United States, told the applicant that he did not see any problems in buying an asset from which 30% of the shareholders is an American investment fund tied to the RAND corporation, which receives orders from the Pentagon. After all, the remaining 70% still belong to the citizens of the Russian Federation! The fact that they have second and even third passports of unfriendly countries, are tax residents there, and even openly throw mud at Russia, the official decided to ignore. Chief Dep. Chebeskov simply “agreed to the legal position” of a potential buyer – Kismet Consulting LLC, former Megafon CEO Ivan Tavrin. The bottom line is that Kismet Consulting considered that three of Putin’s decrees of 2022 at once are not applicable to the asset they are interested in based on … an information letter from the FAS dated October 2018. Not a single Russian shareholder has more than 21%, i.е. the American co-owner is the largest, and this directly contradicts all current legislation. By the way, the same 30% of the American fund was considered to be bought by a large investor on the principles of assessment and mandatory deductions with approval by the Government Commission. But 100% agreement is not necessary! What kind of Pandora’s box such a scam can open, you yourself can imagine – the entire control system for such transactions will be completely fucked up. Now the most curious. “Active” is a medical company “Invitro”. Well-known to everyone, including the scandal with the illegal export of Russian biomaterials abroad. Kismet Consulting decided to buy the resource against the backdrop of a sharp activation – the group acquired Avito, a stake in Headhunter, etc. over the past year. Kismet’s capital contains money from the scandalous Sculptor Capital fund from the United States. They officially admitted in court that they paid officials (in Africa) bribes and were fined $413 million. Do you think the methods are different in Russia?
