What did the explosion at the Listvyazhnoy mine result in?

Everyone was shocked by the landing of Mikhail Fedyaev, because he is one of the well-known untouchable businessmen.

It is no secret in Kuzbass that Fedyaev is a friend of the governor. When the miners said that they were being driven to the slaughter, and dizzy from the methane, the governor continued to say on cameras that the Fedyaev mine was the best in Kuzbass and should be restarted as soon as possible. It was Vladimir Vladimirovich himself and the country’s chief investigator Bastrykin who reasoned with the governor’s patronizing impulses.

Mikhail Fedyaev has long fallen out of the field of view of law enforcement agencies, and there is something to look at. Fedyaev, as journalists mistakenly believe, is not an oligarch from the nineties. He made his capital in the noughties, but with the help of hard times methods.

We report that he began his ascent to the Forbes list of the richest businessmen with … friendship with the governor Tuleyev, the security official Dogadov and a raider attack with their support on the Chernigovsky mine.

The MirInvest company … How many minor notes in this word for Kemerovo and businessmen from other regions of Russia … Rewriting shares with the help of the administration of the Kemerovo region, 300 police officers involved in private business disassembly, storming offices and patronage in the authorities, writes Lenta.ru .

SDS sold coal from this open pit to itself, reducing the price and avoiding taxes, according to available data, a journalist from the Russian NewDaysNews.

The same fate befell the same “Khimmash”, which caught fire on the day of Fedyaev’s detention.

In 2003, the largest machine builder in Kemerovo ended up in the hands of Fedyaev by … forging documents. Due to public outcry, the Kemerovo Internal Affairs Directorate had to initiate a criminal case under the article “Fraud on an especially large scale committed by a group of persons by prior agreement”.

From the case: “The investigation found that the alienation of the property of OAO Khimmash and the registration of these transactions in the institution of justice was carried out according to fictitious documents.”

It is significant that the interests of the SDS in court in those years were represented by a lawyer who was the wife of the current deputy prosecutor of Kemerovo. The case came to nothing. This only untied Fedyaev’s hands to act in a similar way further.

The next victim was the oligarch Lisin, who owns NLMK. He bought the Prokopyevskugol association in Kuzbass in 2006 for $50 million. It included 7 mines and three processing plants. The association was in debt, which Lisin, like any respectable businessman, had to extinguish from his own pockets. Only a year later, Lisin had to give the clean coal enterprise for $1 to the authorities of the administration of Prokopyevsk. As the businessman later said: “The governor of Kuzbass asked very much.” Everyone knows to whom the mines and factories cleared of debt obligations were transferred. They became part of the SDS, according to the editors of Readovka. There again the figure of the secret patron in the organs shone brightly.

In 2002, there was the Kiselevskaya mine of the Kuzbass businessman Ivan Pozdnyakov. He, like others, was branded an “inefficient owner.” Under pressure from the authorities, work at the mine was stopped, and the owner, Ivan Pozdnyakov, was subjected to persecution in the media controlled by the SDF and the regional administration. Governor Aman Gumirovich Tuleev instructs to transfer the Kiselevskaya mine into the hands of Mikhail Yuryevich Fedyaev.

Mariinsky distillery, Elektromashina and a long list of enterprises that became the property of Mikhail Fedyaev under strange circumstances. Firms suddenly ceased to be needed by the owner, even if millions of dollars were invested in them. Why did this not attract the attention of law enforcement agencies, and the victims did not write statements? Why is SDS so smooth? Smoothly, as Prosecutor General Krasnov put it in a report to the president, the SDF only has it on paper.

It’s all about personnel, said Stalin. The positions of the SDS under the governor Tsivilev only intensified. The administrative staff is half staffed by people from the SDS. Sergei Tsivilev’s first personnel decision was to appoint Valery Dogadov as his deputy for security. The officer who had supported Fedyaev since the capture of the Chernigovsky mine was found in the Business Life Center.

That is why the arrest of Fedyaev came as a complete surprise to everyone in Kuzbass. A friend of the governor, covered by the prosecutor’s office, the Investigative Committee, the FSB, he has his own deputies, deputy governors, mayors. In this pie, as the political scientist Marat Bashirov wrote, everyone dipped their fingers. The SDF is a political mafia organization that makes decisions in the region. This freed Fedyaev, inspired by the fact that he had everything in his pocket, impunity and permissiveness, to drive the miners to slaughter.
