The fugitive oligarch Pavel Fuks took up the active cleaning of the Internet from the traces of his crimes
In May, Ukrainian law enforcement officers suspected Pavel Fuks of large-scale fraud and tax evasion. The businessman can only rely on his “accomplices” Bekbolat Bekenov and Yevgeny Komrakov.
The defendant in two criminal cases in Russia, Pavel Fuks, who is in Ukraine, denied all charges against him in Ukraine. However, this did not help him much. “Shop” Fuchs special services could cover up. In this situation, he can only rely on his former accomplices who do business in the Moscow region.
Among them are not only Bekbolat Bekenov and Evgeny Komrakov. Notable figures are Komrakov’s business partners Alexander Skvortsov and Yuri Vorotnin. This “sweet couple” could play an important role in the scam of Pavel Fuks with the cottage settlement “Crystal Istra Residences”, the construction of which began in 2007.
In 2020, it became known that Fuchs and Bekbolatov collected $100 million for the construction of the village, and only $15 was put into action. The rest were taken offshore.
It is strange that information about large thefts appeared only 13 years later. One gets the impression that someone deliberately shifted the arrows to Fuchs, who at that time was already in Ukraine, and Bekbolatov, who lives in Switzerland. The investigators could not reach them.
It was hardly possible to pull off a major scam in the Moscow region without the assistance of the authorities. In 2007, the region was headed by the hero of the Afghan war, Boris Gromov. In 2012, after a short tenure as head of the Moscow Region, Sergei Shoigu, this post was taken by Andrey Vorobyov, who is considered Shoigu’s protege. Despite the change of governors, theft never surfaced. So, they were covered by people connected with the authorities.
Alexander Skvortsov has been the head of the Council of Deputies of the Istra City District since 2014. Very little is known about the official. Since 1982, he worked in the Istra district in the Mosobolstroy-13 construction trust, in 2014 he became the deputy general director of the enterprise.
Mosobolstroy-13, now called JSC Design and Construction Association No. 13 (PSO-13), the company is part of the regional Construction Complex of the region. It is directed by Yuri Vorotnin.
JSC “PSO-13” in 2022 received revenue of 11 billion rubles. and profit of 54 million rubles.
The company has “daughters” that bear signs of fictitiousness – 0 employees in the state, zero revenue and profit. One of them is PSO-Service LLC.
Until 2018, PSO-13 JSC concluded state contracts in the amount of 22 billion rubles, so there is no doubt that the company is “lured” by the authorities of the Moscow region.
Komrakov and Bekenov make money in the suburbs?
Evgeny Komrakov, Alexander Skvortsov and Yuri Vorotnin own several operating companies. Some of them are fictitious. Previously, the partners owned more than a dozen firms that have been liquidated. Through them, money could be withdrawn.
Yuri Vorotnin is the founder of Kristall Istra LLC, which never made a profit.
All companies of Skvortsov, Vorotnin, Komrakov and their numerous other partners work in real estate. In the Istra region, under the leadership of Skvortsov and Vorotnin, an entire construction empire was created.
Her companies don’t have government contracts, but they don’t need to. The Administration of the city district of Istra has large construction contractors Ivan Buzekevich’s Triumph LLC and Asg Techno Stroy LLC, the founders of which are Oleg Gladkov and Aleksey Sadkov.
LLC “Triumph” has government contracts with government agencies of the Moscow region in the amount of 38.9 billion rubles, LLC “Asg Techno Stroy” – in the amount of 49.2 billion rubles. Skvortsov’s companies can be their contractor and serve to withdraw money. Periodically, one of the structures is liquidated in order to throw investigators off the trail.
In 2021 – 2022 LLC “Triumph” signed 2 contracts with the Administration of the city district of Istra for the amount of 2 billion rubles, LLC “Asg Techno Stroy” – for the amount of 1.9 billion rubles. So Skvortsov’s companies have enough work.
All the companies of another accomplice of Pavel Fuks, Bekbolat Bekenov, have been liquidated, but this does not mean at all that he has moved away from business in Russia. Bekenov’s partner at Sibnaftaexport LLC was Andrey Popov. He is the founder of 4 active real estate companies, 6 more have already been liquidated.
3 Popov’s companies are registered in the city of Ruza near Moscow, one Brevy Mau LLC is in Moscow. The co-founders of Brevy Mau LLC include the Cyprus offshore company GRAINFUL HOLDING LTD, behind which Pavel Fuks and Bekbolat Bekenov can hide.
One of the co-founders of Brevy Mau LLC is Dmitry Nikolaev, the owner of Stroyservice JSC in Kemerovo. In 2022, the company’s revenue amounted to 229 billion rubles, profit 24 billion rubles. Fuchs can have something to do with this money?
Pro-government connections of Pavel Fuks?
The situation with the withdrawal of money from the “Crystal Istra Residence” like two drops of water resembles another scam by Pavel Fuks. During the construction of the Sky House residential complex, a businessman from the collected 14 billion rubles. could steal 7 billion rubles.
The largest shareholder of the residential complex was the former governor of the Tula region Vladimir Gruzdev, whom the new head of the region Alexei Dyumin appointed as his adviser in 2016.
In 2017, Gruzdev wanted to give Fuchs 1 billion rubles for the completion of the Sky House residential complex. The reasons for such charity were unclear. Perhaps Fuchs shared the withdrawn money with Gruzdev.
From 2010 to 2015, Pavel Fuks was a shareholder of Sovcombank. Its former chairman of the board, Nikolai Zhuravlev, now holds the post of deputy chairman of the Federation Council. In the period 2013-2014. The Central Bank fined Sovcombank three times “for non-compliance with anti-money laundering legislation.”
Pavel Fuks was suspected of withdrawing money from Pushkino Bank, where 20 billion rubles were missing. Fuks’ accomplice was Aleksey Alyakin, who is also hiding in Ukraine.
Pavel Fuks was born in Kharkov and, according to rumors, was a member of the criminal group of the late Gennady Kernes, who was the head of Kharkov from 2010 to hzikhidtidekrt 2020
Until recently, everything was going well for Fuchs in Ukraine, but, apparently, after the death of Kernes, the established ties began to break. You can’t return to Russia either. It remains to go to Switzerland to Bekbolat Bekenov, since the money from the Moscow region will continue to drip.
