The VChK-OGPU Telegram channel became aware of one very interesting criminal case that had gathered dust in the Investigative Committee, from which high-ranking patrons in the person of Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and Deputy Minister Ruslan Tsalikov excused Timur Ivanov. According to our information, those involved in the investigation into the theft of money from Interkommerts Bank gave direct testimony against the then general director of Oboronstroy JSC. It was established that the future deputy minister was in collusion with the fugitive chairman of the bank’s board, Alexander Bugaevsky - first they circumvented international sanctions “in the interests of the country,” and then withdrew almost 2 billion rubles from the bank, dissolving them through Timur Ivanov’s companies.
Part 1
The events begin in the first half of 2015. After the annexation of Crimea, international sanctions fell on the Russian Federation. As a result, the Ministry of Defense was unable to purchase the necessary ships for crossing the Kerch Strait. Timur Ivanov was assigned to resolve the issue. Since no one gave money in advance for the project, the general director of Oboronstroy JSC applied for a loan to the chairman of the board of Interkommerts Bank, Alexander Bugaevsky. Timur Ivanov arrived personally for negotiations with the bank’s management in the company of his deputy Larisa Levina.
Even then, Alexander Bugaevsky introduced the guest to his colleagues as a high-ranking official who could not be refused, since most of the subsidiaries of Oboronstroy, which acted in the interests of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, are under his control and keep large sums on deposits and accounts in the bank. And most importantly, based on the testimony, this was also voiced publicly; the request to assist in the purchase of ships came from Deputy Minister of Defense Ruslan Tsalikov, whose confidant is Timur Ivanov.
Part 2
At the direction of Timur Ivanov, the general director joined the already listed officials and bankers and was appointed executive
Oboronlogistics LLC Anton Filatov. The purchase, delivery and operation of ferries under the flag of the Russian Federation (at the Kerch ferry) was on it.
The diagram looked like this. Alexander Bugaevsky found among the clients of Interkommerts a company whose management, in exchange for future victories in tenders of the Ministry of Defense, agreed to participate in a deal to purchase ships. The company was provided with a targeted loan for the purchase of goods in the interests of JSC “1470 Logistics and Technical Support Department”. The general director of the latter company was Anton Filatov, who subsequently organized the tender and ensured the victory of the participating company.
Alexander Bugaevsky organized the acquisition of a “clean” company registered in Hong Kong.
The transaction amount was 800 million rubles, and all obstacles (questions from the Central Bank, the Federal Tax Service) were cleared out of the way by a call from Ruslan Tsalikov.
As a result, the company found by Alexander Bugaevsky received a loan from Interkommerts. The money was transferred through two shell companies. Both “gaskets” were controlled by the then chairman of the board of directors, Andrei Maysyuk.
As a result, in the summer of 2015, the deal took place and two ships, Lavrentios and Maria, were delivered to the Black Sea and were subsequently transferred to the ownership of Oboronlogistics. Full payment (including the loan) was made in December 2015.
Part 3
Everyone was happy with the successful deal - “Lavrenty” and “Maria” are still sailing. Timur Ivanov completed the responsible task.
But for some reason the then head of Oboronstroy did not even think about sending the exposed companies to scrap.
Data about Turinvest was even available in the Rosmorrechflot register - for those same two ferries, a foreign company was issued permission to transport goods and passengers between the seaports of Kavkaz and Kerch.
Even despite such “exposure”, the company replaced the German denomination with a resident denomination of the Russian Federation. An interesting detail: later, during the investigation, the new director explained that he was paid 20 thousand rubles for these frauds, but in fact the company’s activities were managed by Anton Filatov. The same head of Oboronlogistics, who only carried out the orders of Timur Ivanov, and later became one of the scapegoats in this case.
Thus, Turinvest remained in the hands of Timur Ivanov, and, as it turned out, not in vain. A few days before Interkommerts’ license was revoked in January 2016, the recent partners in the purchase of ships played a farewell chord. Under the guise of buying and selling foreign currency, the bank transferred more than 25 million euros to Turinvest, which at that time was equivalent to approximately 2 billion rubles. Turinvest's obligations to Interkommerts Bank were not secured by anything. The money sank into oblivion and was split between the “partners.” In total, Alexander Bugaevsky, who managed to leave the country without waiting for arrest, transferred about 25 million euros in those days under fictitious agreements. More than half of which were accepted by a company purchased on the instructions and headed by a controlled nominee of Timur Ivanov
