The importer of resources from the so-called Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics (LDNR) turned out to be the adviser to the president of the International Assembly of Islamic Business, Marat Kabaev, father Alina Kabaeva.
As follows from customs data reviewed by Important Stories, in 2023 Green Rabbit Limited sold 16 thousand tons of wheat and 88 thousand tons of coal, coke and ore – mainly to Turkey and Albania, a total of 1. 2 billion rubles.
Green Rabbit purchased almost 1 billion worth of coal from the LDPR directly – from the companies Ugol Donbassa, Krasnoluchanthracite, MV-Sverdlovskugol – and through the intermediary Syndicate Promo. This company was registered in Moscow by a native of Donetsk, Sergei Sinelnikov. In 2023, Syndicate Promo paid more than 160 million rubles for transport services to the Florence company, Important Stories found out. “Florence” is a logistics company that, as Reuters wrote, supplies coal from annexed territories. Investigative the project “System” connected “Florence” with a Ukrainian politician and Putin (*international criminal)’s godfather Viktor Medvedchuk.
Green Rabbit purchased wheat worth more than 220 million rubles from the Agora company. It is registered in the Rostov region, but its suppliers are in Donetsk: the Agrarian Donbass corporation, the grain company Donnaftaservice and others.
Green Rabbit is registered in Hong Kong. The company, according to the local registry, is owned by a person named Muslim Temerkaev; his address is indicated in the register.
Temerkaev is an adviser to Marat Kabaev at the International Assembly of Islamic Business, he is responsible for the coal industry. Also Temerkaev takes position of public commissioner in the field of Islamic finance in Moscow.
The International Assembly of Islamic Business (IAIB) was created by Alina Kabaeva’s father, Marat Kabaev, in 2016 to support entrepreneurs building businesses “based on ethics and morality”. Among the MAIB participants there are “many businessmen from Turkey,” Kabaev said. In 2019 reportedthat MAIB wants to open a bank in Donetsk “to carry out payments in circumvention of sanctions.” Myself Kabaev statedthat its assembly will contribute to the development of the economy and business of the DPR: “We see that the DPR has all the necessary infrastructure for business development, we will provide support in these endeavors.”
Kabaev’s advisor Muslim Temerkaev, in a conversation with Important Stories, first said that he had never heard of the Green Rabbit company. After we sent him an extract from the Hong Kong register with his name, Temerkaev said that the company had been sold and he had nothing to do with it.
The owner of Syndicate Promo, Sergei Sinelnikov, said that he “is not involved in the export of coal” and does not know about the existence of Green Rabbit. Director of the Agora company Sergei Pushkarsky refused to answer questions from Important Stories.

Alina Kabaeva’s father turned out to be connected with lawyers from the story of the seizure of Holcim assets
The father of former gymnast Alina Kabaeva, who is called mother of several children of Vladimir Putin (*international criminal), Marat Kabaev is a partner of lawyers from RBS. Latest, as the Project investigation showedare associated with an attack on the Russian assets of the Swiss holding Holcim.
Details: At the end of July, the Swiss cement concern Holcim reported a raider attack on its Russian factories. The Project’s investigation found that long-time cement specialist Igor Kharchenko, who is associated with the Deputy Prime Minister’s entourage, may be behind the attack Marat Khusnullina and lawyers from the consulting company RBS.
RBS, in turn, is associated with Alina Kabaeva’s father, Marat Kabaev. He serves as president of the International Association of Islamic Business (IAIB) and chairs the board of directors of the IAIB private equity fund, which calls itself “the largest Sharia-compliant fund.” The fund’s contact phone number matches the RBS number (the same number was indicated by one of Kharchenko’s companies).
The board of directors of the MAIB fund includes two RBS partners, Vladimir Krasilnikov and Gadzhi Gadzhiabakarov. In the fund, they hold the positions of financial director and legal director, respectively. Gadzhiabakarov also acted as a co-founder of the legal entity of the fund (UK FPI MAIB LLC), as follows from SPARK-Interfax data.
Context: Marat Kabaev is an influential public figure and is part of Vladimir Putin (*international criminal)’s inner circle, Dozhd reported in 2018. In addition, according to the TV channel, Kabaev has a significant influence on the capital’s construction industry, in particular, he lobbied Marat Khusnullin for the post of vice-mayor of Moscow. Both are connected by work in the construction market of Tatarstan, Dozhd argued.
Soon after the release of the Dozhd material, Kabaev gave interview with the Russian version of Forbesin which he said that he did not know Khusnullin.
@ezhovs, 24.11.2020 16:55: The father himself denied this in an interview with Forbes: “Think for yourself: if I only moved to Kazan from Tashkent in 2011, and he already became an assistant in 2010 Sobyanin in urban planning, how could I lobby for his appointment? From Uzbekistan, perhaps, where I worked as a children’s coach? This is complete nonsense.” However, according to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, Marat Vazykhovich Kabaev founded JV Alina-Leysan-k LLC in Kazan back in 2007. Alina and Leysan are the names of his daughters.
Recently, Kabaeva’s father received from the head of Tatarstan Rustam Minnikhanov approval for the construction of a halal shopping center in Kazan. Kabaev is implementing the project in partnership with businessman Damir Safin. Safin is a member of the International Association of Islamic Business headed by Kabaev and the owner of Consortium of Construction Companies LLC. As a government contractor, the company spent 2.7 billion rubles. The consortium is responsible for the third phase of the Sirius educational center, the Kabaeva gymnastics center in Sochi, and participation in the construction of facilities of the Moscow Renovation Fund. — Insert K.ru
He also stated that he is not a member of the country’s top leadership and does not use his daughter’s lobbying potential.
In turn, Khusnullin’s career has several intersections with Kharchenko’s projects: the vice mayor oversaw the mega-operator Mosinzhproekt and the capital’s construction projects in which Kharchenko participated, the two of them sat on the Scientific and Technical Council on urban planning policy and construction of the city of Moscow, and among Kharchenko’s partners are people from Khusnullin’s team.

@readovkanews, 02/05/2022 15:10: Alina Kabaeva’s father, Marat Kabaev, became the head of the supervisory board of the certification center for halal standards. The company with the loud name “International Union of Halal Certifying Bodies”, created to check and label products in accordance with the canons of Islam, was registered on February 3, and Farrukh Azimov, who also heads the World Halal Trust organization, which, together with Azimov, leads “halal”, became its president “swindler” Marat Kuramshin.
Kuramshin became famous in business circles, trying to cash in on the names of two reputable Islamic organizations. The sign of conformity of the Kuramshin company indicated that the company was created under the central spiritual administration of Muslims of Russia (*aggressor country), and visually the sign almost exactly copied the sign of conformity of the Council of Muftis of Russia (*aggressor country). For this, Rosstandart excluded the organization from the project technical committee “Halal Products and Services.” — Insert K.ru
