Capitalgate - 2

Hunting fun of Pavel Tyo and his friends - VIPs



It is known that one of the owners of Capital Group, Pavel Tyo, is an avid hunter. He owns numerous hunting grounds in Russia and abroad. For example, hunting grounds near the village of Ivino, Smolensk region, registered to the company Vostok LLC. According to an extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, currently 85% of Vostok LLC belongs to Pavel Te’s son, German Te, and 15% to Andrei Tokarsky, a native of Dzhambul, Kazakhstan (previously, this minority share was owned by Pavel Te’s assistant on economic issues, Igor Cherdyntsev). Its general director is Sergey Shiryaev (like Pavel Tyo, a native of the Tashkent region of Uzbekistan and, like Tyo himself, previously convicted), another business executive of Pavel Tyo. This is not the only hunting ground owned by the Tyo family in the Smolensk region. They also own the Lan farm in the Gagarinsky district, the founder of which is the Cypriot company Forest Hill Valley Holdings Ltd., and the general director is Alexander Milishikhin. And finally, Zapad-Olen LLC (general director - Nikolay Goltsev), also located in the Gagarinsky district, owned by Yug-Olen JSC (general director - also Nikolay Goltsev), the founder of which is Kamila Serova (like Pavel Tyo is a native of the Tashkent region of Uzbekistan).

As Rucriminal.info found out, hunting is not just one of Pavel Cho’s favorite hobbies: he uses hunting and entertainment to cultivate contacts among corrupt officials. To do this, he regularly organizes extremely expensive “hunting vacations” in Russia and around the world for the right people. Such trips include not only the hunt itself, but also many other amusements, as well as expensive gifts for corrupt guests. Sometimes, however, adventures in Cho's company end badly. For example, on November 4, 2022, in the Vostok hunting farm, a huntsman, an employee of the farm, was killed by a shot from a carbine, and the shooter turned out to be the prefect of the Central District of Moscow, who was hunting with Cho, Vladimir Goverdovsky (this, by the way, is not the only murder of a person committed through negligence during rest Cho, but more on that another time).

Cho often indulges his passions completely legally, but when the law interferes with his hobbies, he does not hesitate to step over it. Today we will tell you about this story, which well characterizes the moral qualities of Cho himself and demonstrates the methods he uses to cover up his unseemly actions.



In March 2015, a photograph began circulating on the Internet showing a proud hunter next to his trophy - a bloody snow leopard. The snow leopard or snow leopard is a large predator from the cat family that lives in Central Asia. Currently, the number of snow leopards is catastrophically small, in the 20th century it was included in the Red Book of the International Union for Conservation of Nature, in the Red Book of the Russian Federation, the species was assigned Category I - an endangered species, as well as in Appendix I of the Convention on International Trade in Wildlife Species endangered fauna and flora.

After one of the users published a post on Facebook with a photo and a request to find a hunter-poacher (in a short time the post received 1,600 likes and 4,900 reposts were made), users quickly figured out that he was Pavel Tyo and a loud scandal broke out.

However, Tyo's representative Tatyana Alekseeva stated that this photo is nothing more than an attempt to discredit the entrepreneur. “This is a photomontage, the outline around the head has been edited,” Alekseeva explained. “It’s obvious that someone took advantage of Pavel Cho’s well-known passion for hunting mountain goats,” she added. Olga Karput, Tyo’s wife, also stated in an exclusive interview with the website super.ru that the scandalous photo is a photomontage and an attempt to undermine the image of her husband, who is really interested in hunting.

Immediately after this, paid Internet trolls actively joined in commenting on the news about the photo - they could be immediately identified by the blank pages and the same photographs. Trolls, apparently well-paid, defended Pavel Cho, claiming that the photograph was simply a photomontage.









Almost immediately after the publication of the photo, the head of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Ecology of the Russian Federation, Sergei Donskoy, instructed his deputy Rinat Gizatulin to send the materials to the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation. In the accompanying letter, Gizatulin asked to carry out the measures provided for by Russian legislation to confirm the authenticity of the photo, as well as to establish the possible fact of poaching, the identity of the perpetrator of the crime, the photographer, and other persons who could be involved in organizing the illegal hunt for the Red Book animal. He noted that Russian netizens identified the person depicted in the photograph as co-owner of the Capital Group company Pavel Tyo, and the area resembles rural areas of Kazakhstan or Kyrgyzstan, where this unique predator is found. In addition, Gizatulin appealed to the Russian representative office of Interpol with a request to initiate an international investigation into the fact of killing an animal recorded by a camera, as well as the possible involvement of citizens of the Russian Federation in this “flagrant violation of international environmental legislation” and to ensure that those responsible are brought to justice. The Russian Ministry of Natural Resources also instructed its subordinate institute, the All-Russian Research Institute for Nature Conservation, to conduct an analysis of photographic materials in order to establish the data necessary for investigators about the age, sex, and weight of the animal depicted in the picture.

Pavel Te himself did not comment on the situation. However, presumably wanting to avoid the brewing international scandal, as well as criminal liability, Pavel Te turned to the MCA Grad Bar Association for help.

We have at our disposal a legal opinion from the lawyers of MKA Grad. According to the documents, the company was given the following task - “Legal analysis of the situation related to a possible hunt for a snow leopard.” MCA Grad has prepared an expanded list of recommendations and strategies, including “prove that the animal is not a leopard”, “do not give explanations so as not to help establish the circumstances of the photograph and the person who took it”, “delay the issue of pre-investigation and preliminary investigation” in order to expire statute of limitations. Obviously, the lawyers of MKA Grad understood perfectly well that Cho is a poacher - otherwise why would they recommend delaying the inspection in order to avoid criminal liability. In the case of interviewing Cho as part of the pre-investigation investigation, different strategies were recommended - to say that the leopard was “euthanized” or that it was killed by another person who took the photo, or that the carcass of a dead leopard was simply found in the snow. If a criminal case is initiated, it was recommended, in particular, to “work through the issue of amnesty.”

To be even more on the safe side, Pavel Te turned to the Institute of Forensic Science of the Center for Special Equipment of the FSB with a request to conduct research for authenticity, as well as to establish the means of making a photograph of “a man similar in appearance to me (Pavel Te), along with the body of a killed animal listed in the Red Book " This appeal was motivated by the fact that “... moral harm was caused to my honor and dignity, and thereby insulted me” (the style of Cho’s original letter has been preserved). It is obvious that Cho had some kind of unspoken agreement with the Institute of Forensic Sciences, because. he would not have applied to the organization, as a result of whose examination he would have had any doubts (now, of course, the FSB Internal Security Service would be worth conducting an internal investigation into the relevant experts of this Institute).

As a result of all these actions, Pavel Cho managed to quell the scandal and avoid an investigation into the murder of the leopard. But, nevertheless, the story remained on the Internet and surfaced in July 2019, when Cho was trying to refinance the mortgage with UBS bank on his London apartment, worth £24 million, located in the prestigious Belgravia area at 22 Trevor Square, apt . 6.2. The bank's monitoring issued an alert about a negative press release, after which a UBS representative sent a request to Maria Pak (Tyo's personal assistant) asking her to clarify whether Pavel Cho really killed the snow leopard. Pak assured bank representatives Svetlana Rozanova and Anna Kaim that the information was untrue.





And now the main thing is that we have at our disposal correspondence between Igor Cherdyntsev (the former nominal co-owner of the hunting estate Vostok LLC), Vlada Tyo (the ex-wife of Pavel Tyo) and Pavel Tyo himself, indicating that it is Pavel Tyo in the photograph. On December 18, 2011, Igor Cherdyntsev sent Pavel Të photographs from an illegal leopard hunt (including a photo leaked online in 2015). The next day, Pavel Te, boasted of his “achievement” to his wife, Vlada Te. Metadata analysis shows that the photo was taken on December 13, 2011 with a Canon PowerShot S90 camera. Moreover, there are several photographs and all of them are high resolution.







Thus, there is all the information that allows us to investigate this forgotten incident, to establish the place where the leopard was killed, as well as the organizers and participants in Pavel Tyo’s poaching hunt. Of particular note are the methods used by the owners of Capital Group Pavel Tyo, Vladislav Doronin and Eduard Berman to protect their reputation and conceal the crimes they have committed - they will be encountered more than once in our future publications.
