The family of the "patriot deputy" Skoch ended up on the list of "those who fled the Russian Federation"

"have been on friendly terms since their criminal activities in the "Solntsevskaya" organized crime group.”

The release date of the crime boss Andrey Kochuykov (Italianets), who is the "right hand" of the thief in law Zakhariy Kalashov (Shakro Molodoy), is approaching. According to Rucriminal.info, Kochuykov, sentenced on March 29, 2018 to 8 years and 10 months in prison for the criminal case of the massacre on Rochdelskaya Street in Moscow near the Elements restaurant, is scheduled to be released from Penal Colony No. 3 of the Federal Penitentiary Service for the Kaluga Region on October 15. Unlike his boss, who was released early in March of this year from a penal colony in the Krasnodar Territory for medical reasons (Shakro became practically blind in prison), Italianets cannot leave earlier than he is sentenced to do, and is suing the administration of IK-3. As the VChK-OGPU learned, in the summer of 2023, Kochuykov did not get along with the prison administration, which resulted in his placement in a punishment cell, recognition as a malicious violator of the established procedure for serving a sentence, and a transfer from light to strict conditions of serving a sentence for a period of three months. It all began at 6 am on July 29, 2023, when the authority suddenly felt ill. Feeling the onset of vomiting, he ran to the toilet without making his bed and throwing on only a cotton jacket. As a result, during the morning rounds, the operative officer recorded the prisoner's unmade bed and the absence of trousers on him, which are violations. For this, Kochuykov was placed in a punishment cell for seven days.

This was not the end of the Italian's misadventures. After his release from the punishment cell, the head of the detachment approached him to accompany him to the medical unit of IK-3 for medical procedures. Kochuykov refused to go there, for which he was subsequently transferred to a cell-type room. Having added 15 disciplinary sanctions previously imposed on the authority to these incidents, the head of the colony recognized him as a malicious violator of the established procedure for serving a sentence. Since the fall of 2023, Italian has been trying to challenge the sanctions in court. At first instance, they were recognized as legal, but the authority filed appeals, decisions on which have not been made.

Another trial that Italian will have to go through concerns the establishment of administrative supervision over him. The administration of IK-3 approached him with a corresponding administrative claim in connection with the approaching end of his term. But until final decisions are made on the appeals of Italianets against the penalties, the colony's claim for administrative supervision cannot be considered. In this regard, proceedings on this claim were suspended.

As previously reported by the VChK-OGPU, efforts for the early release of Italianets from the colony were made by State Duma deputy Andrei Skoch. In the criminal case on the bribery of high-ranking employees of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation to release Kochuykov, there is a document entitled "State Duma deputy A.V. Skoch decides through Maksimenko M.I. and Lamonov A.N. (at the time of the events, employees of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation - Ed.) the issue of releasing the direct executor of the raider seizure of the Elements restaurant Kochuykov A.N. (nickname "Italian"), with whom they have been on friendly terms since the time of their joint criminal activity in the Solntsevskaya organized crime group." It is interesting that this document was not submitted to the court with other investigative materials, but remained in the materials gathering dust on the investigative shelves. Skoch agreed that it would not be he who would be tried for bribing the Investigative Committee employees, but his "right hand" Sheykhametov (Sheikh), who only acted as an intermediary in the negotiations between Skoch and the Investigative Committee. By the way, Sheikh, as Skoch promised him, did not go to jail at all.



The VChK-OGPU Telegram channel found the deputy and "patriot" Andrei Skoch in a database of people "who left the Russian Federation" compiled from leaks. His daughter, the main holder of the assets of the United Russia organized crime group member, the daughter-in-law of the first deputy chairman of the government Denis Manturov, Varvara, was also spotted there.



The name of Andrei Skoch appears in the database allegedly in connection with the announced mobilization. It is indicated that he left the Russian Federation for Belarus on October 14, 2022. However, most likely, the State Duma deputy left at a difficult time for the country not for fear of conscription, but for another vacation.



The entire family of the people's representative, including his daughter Varvara and son-in-law Evgeny Manturov, have been repeatedly spotted both in the Seychelles and in Switzerland. And the Republic of Belarus is just a convenient hub where you can charter a private jet without unnecessary noise. After all, according to open data, Andrei Skoch's personal plane is under sanctions and blocked in all services.



The main holder of deputy Skoch's assets, his daughter Varvara Manturova, according to leaks, left the country on March 31, 2022, for the UAE. The reason given is the beginning of the SVO, but even without this, the 22-year-old regular at foreign parties comes to her homeland only to participate in dance competitions and for treatment.



For many years, Andrei Skoch's family has been visiting the KIEM clinic, where his wife, socialite Elena Likhach, is valued even more than the wife of the president's press secretary, Tatyana Navka, the court by how much lower the review of the latter is published on the website of the elite hospital. There, as already reported by the VChK-OGPU, the deputy was recently diagnosed with a suspected tumor.

Thief in law No. 1 is at large

The mafia world under Shakro and the FSB

As the telegram channel VChK-OGPU reported, on March 29, thief in law No. 1 Zakhar Kalashov (Shakro Molodoy) was released. The organization of his meeting was carried out by the “authorities” Martin Babakekhyan and Alexander Zakharov (Sandro). After leaving the walls of the correctional facility, Shakro immediately went to his cottage on Rublyovka, and then he will have to undergo a long treatment. In the colony, Shakro became practically blind, which was the reason for his release for medical reasons. However, this does not mean that Shakro will not engage in business in the mafia world (this is precisely why he was released). Sources say that Shakro will make decisions gradually, without any “sudden movements.”



Earlier, the Cheka-OGPU found out how the preparations for the release of thief in law No. 1 Zakhary Kalashov (Shakro Molodoy) took place and who would form his closest circle. These are Martin Babakekhyan and Alexander Zakharov (Sandro), who were tried for the murder of the governor of the Magadan Territory, Valentin Tsvetkov. It is believed that, despite the severe pressure, they did not hand over the “customer” Shakro.

Shakro’s former headquarters was located in the building of the Golden Palace casino, but all the premises there were rented out after Kalashov’s “landing”. Presumably, the new headquarters of thief in law No. 1 will be in the Match Point entertainment center on Novy Arbat. This is an object close to a “criminal general.”



Kalashov will have no problems with his “controlled” and “protected” business structures, as well as with his “militants” after leaving. In recent years, two “authorities” have monitored the observance of his interests in all areas - Martin Babakekhyan and Alexander Zakharov. The first is responsible for all of Shakro’s business interests, and the second is for the “power bloc.” Previously, the functions of consigliere under Shakro were performed by the “authority” Andrei Kochuykov (Italian). But he sat down a little earlier than Shakro, and all Kalashov’s attempts to release him ahead of schedule were unsuccessful. Now Martin and Sandro have become such. Although, of course, after his release the Italian will have an honorable place in Kalashov’s hierarchy.

Recently, all representatives of the mafia and business community knew Martin and Sandro as representatives of Shakro and his most trusted persons. The story of the relationship is very interesting.



In 2011, the Moscow City Court issued a verdict in the case of the murder of the governor of the Magadan region, Valentin Tsvetkov, committed in October 2002. They shot him, Martin Babakekhyan received 19 years of strict regime, Alexander Zakharov - 17 years. The person who ordered the murder and the motives were never established. Martin and Sandro categorically refused to testify on this matter.

They ended up in the Russian Federation after they were arrested on July 7, 2006 in the Spanish resort of Marbella, and then Spain handed them over to the Russian Federation.

Kalashov was deported from Spain much later, in 2014, when Martin and Sandro were already serving long sentences. It was never even mentioned that they were somehow connected.

However, according to the Cheka-OGPU, in Spain Martin and Sandro were part of Shakro’s inner circle. Immediately after his forced return to Moscow in 2014, Kalashov said that he was ready to pay “any money” for the release of Martin and Sandro. It was not possible to free them, but Kalashov managed to ensure that they served their sentences in comfortable colonies and conditions.

And Martin and Sandro were released after Shakro himself was arrested and convicted of extortion, but much earlier than they were supposed to serve. And again, in the criminal world they are sure that Kalashov “had a hand” in their release, since Martin Babakekhyan and Alexander Zakharov “received almost 20 for him” and did not surrender. To put it simply, it was Shakro who ordered the murder of Tsvetkov.

“Thief in law No. 1” Zakhar Kalashova (Shakro Molodoy), after his release, will be on a very “strong hook” with the FSB officers of the Russian Federation who organized his freedom.

According to documents published by the Cheka-OGPU, after the arrest of Kalashov and his “right hand” Andrei Kochuykov (Italian) for extortion, the FSB Investigation Department opened another case under Article 210 (organization of a criminal community) of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation against Zakhar Kalashov (Shakro Molodoy ) and under Part 2 of Article 210 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (participation in a criminal community) in relation to Kochukyov. Also, a case was opened against Kalashov under Article 291 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (giving a bribe). Mafiosi are listed as “suspects” in these cases. They were convicted of extortion, but materials on other charges remain gathering dust in the Investigative Directorate of the FSB of the Russian Federation. But at any moment they can be “blown away.”

As Rucriminal.info found out, employees of the “K” department of the FSB of Russia are currently deciding which of the thieves in law should go to jail, who should run away, and who should be free to walk around Moscow. For example, “thief in law Albert Red” (Ali Heydarov), with the assistance of FSB officers, was released on parole from a colony in Mari El in the summer of 2020, after which he began to live in Moscow and control part of the business of Azerbaijani clans, including drug trafficking, and did this successfully, so how he was endowed with immunity. He was also given the task of countering I love my fellow countrymen (immigrants from the Republic of Azerbaijan), both businessmen and criminals. Ali Heydarov, together with thief in law Badri Koguashvili (Badri Kutaissky), lived on the territory of Moscow, engaged in criminal activities without hindrance, since they were not subject to the “thieves’ article”, under which quite a few of their colleagues were detained or were forced to leave RF. For example, on May 28, 2020, the Medvedevsky District Court ruled to release Albert Ryzhiy on parole; a little later, on June 6, 2020, his enemy, thief in law Lesha Irkutsky (Alexey Gudyna), was detained under the crime of larceny, and on June 9, Albert Ryzhiy was released, and his main enemy went to rest, so FSB officers cleared the way for “Badri Kutaissky” and “Albert Ryzhy”, who were also joined by businessman Zaur Akhmedov (brother of thief in law “Rovshan Lenkoransky”). This trio successfully completed the tasks assigned to them, but this did not last long, due to the fact that in April 2021, “Albert the Red” was killed. The Azerbaijanis were orphaned, “Badri Kutaisi” was left without a partner.

Since September 2021, thief in law Rufo Gyandzhinsky (Ulfat Tagiyev), who was the godson of Rovshan Lyankoransky, has been released from prison. Rufo Gyandzhinsky should have been expelled from the Russian Federation by the migration service officers upon his exit, since, according to the decision of the Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs, his stay on the territory of the Russian Federation was undesirable, but the Deputy Minister changed his mind, due to the fact that FSB officers intervened in this process, because they needed replace Albert the Red. Thus, Badri Kutaisi has a new partner. The new composition of the so-called “trio” is still engaged in criminal activities on the territory of the Russian Federation, and colleagues in the shop have many questions about them, since together with FSB officers, this trio made the decision to expel unwanted people and those who were seen as a threat. For example: the killer of “Albert the Red” Matlab Sultanov (Azerbaijani by origin) from the moment of detention until the court verdict claimed and to this day claims that he killed Albert the Red because of personal hostility, but this did not suit the above trinity, due to than their patrons from the FSB, they took information out of thin air that Thief in Law Namik Bakinsky (Namik Salifov) was involved in the murder of Albert Ryzhy as a customer, they put it all on paper and submitted it to the Investigative Committee in the form of a certificate. Based on this certificate, Namik Bakinsky was put on the international wanted list.

After a call from Nazarbayev and from the FSB of the Russian Federation

How Kazakh oligarch Kenes Rakishev solves the problems of his Russian friends

The editors of Rucriminal.info continue to publish the most interesting materials from the case of the shootout on Rochdelskaya Street.



The shootout on Rochdelskaya occurred due to a conflict between the owner of the Elements restaurant, Zhanna Kim, and designer Fatima Misikova: the latter believed that Kim did not pay her 8 million rubles extra. for the repair. Henchmen of the thief in law Zakhary Kalashov (Shakro Molodoy), Andrey Kochuykov, nicknamed Italian, Eduard Romanov and several other people came to demand money from Kim. Kim called her lover Kenes Rakishev, an oligarch from Kazakhstan, to solve the problem. And he has already attracted to dismantling a lawyer-fixer associated with the FSB of the Russian Federation, Eduard Budantsev, whom the oligarch Iskander Makhmudov had previously recommended to Rakishev. Together with Budantsev, Vladimir Kostrichenko arrived at Rochdelskaya. As a result, Budantsev opened fire with a Beretta 92 FS pistol. As a result, 2 people died and 3 were injured. However, thanks to the connections of Budantsev in the FSB, the case was turned in such a way that it was from Buantsev that they made a victim.

In December 2017, the lawyer Eduard Budantsev was re-interrogated in the Presnensky District Court. Judge Tatyana Vasyuchenko agreed to this because of the large number of disagreements and inconsistencies in his testimony. During the hearing, the court compared Budantsev's words with audio and video recordings of the events of that evening, as well as with details of phone calls.

So, for example, at the very beginning of the process, the lawyer announced his arrival at the Elements restaurant after a call from the owner of the restaurant Zhanna Kim. According to him, the girl allegedly asked for help in negotiations with unknown people demanding that she return the debt.

It was revealed in court that there was no such call on the record, and that Kim's conversation was not on the audio recording. The girl recorded the meeting on a dictaphone.

When Budantsev's lie became obvious, he stated that everything seemed to him. It also seemed to him that Kim reported that the amount that extortionists allegedly demanded from her had increased.

In general, one gets the impression that Vasyuchenko wanted to deal with this case according to the law, and tried to find the truth. Maybe that's why instead of the post of chairman of the Kuntsevsky court, for which she was preparing, she was dismissed.

Now it is already obvious that the criminal case, which became the reason for the fourth military war, was fabricated for a specific purpose - to get Budantsev out of harm's way. His patrons are still afraid of publicity, because after the shootout and subsequent power manipulations, Nursultan Nazarbayev called the presidential administration and asked to deal with this story. After that, the country's leadership was given an answer that the situation had been settled. No one reported on the real state of affairs. Nazarbayev's call was caused by the fact that the cover for Zhanna Kim was a businessman from Kazakhstan, Kenes Rakishev, who is also called the wallet of the ex-president of Kazakhstan.

Lies of a lawyer in court are a strong reason to reconsider the events of those days and hold the lawyer-declarer liable for giving false testimony. And in general, if the court made decisions according to the law, it would recognize that there were no grounds for the use of weapons by him, and then Budantsev should have been in the dock on charges of murder.

But the criminal does not tolerate the subjunctive mood. The lie of Budantsev was revealed at the stage of the investigation, but at the direction of the senior investigator under the chairman of the ICR, Konstantin Krivorotov, the case was put on the brakes and stopped. Budantsev remained at large, and Krivorotov received the Order of Courage for "courage and selflessness in the line of duty."

Deadly Cadillac for a participant in the massacre on Rochdelskaya

Why is there a "path" of corpses following FSB agent Budantsev?



As it became known to the telegram channel of the Cheka-OGPU, Vladimir Kostrichenko, a participant in a shootout on Rochdelskaya Street, died in an accident in the Nizhny Novgorod region. A terrible accident occurred on Sunday, December 18, in the Vorotynsky district. The Cadillac Escalade, driven by Kostrichenko, was moving at high speed towards the capital. The driver lost control and collided with the GAZelle.



Exactly 7 years ago - on December 14 - Kostrichenko, together with the lawyer of the "Dictatorship of Law" board, retired KGB colonel Eduard Budantsev, were detained as suspects in the murder. As soon as the FSB officers entered the case, Budantsev and Kostrichenko turned from accused into witnesses.



The shootout on Rochdelskaya occurred due to a conflict between the owner of the Elements restaurant, Zhanna Kim, and designer Fatima Misikova: the latter believed that Kim did not pay her 8 million rubles extra. for the repair. Henchmen of the thief in law Zakhary Kalashov (Shakro Molodoy), Andrey Kochuykov, nicknamed Italian, Eduard Romanov and several other people came to demand money from Kim. Kim called Budantsev, who arrived with Kostrichenko, for negotiations. As a result, Budantsev, who was being beaten, opened fire with a Beretta 92 FS pistol. As a result, 2 people died and 3 were injured.



Budantsev was first charged with murder, and then the charge was reclassified as exceeding the limits of necessary self-defense.

Behind bars were Kalashov, Kochuykov and their accomplices. The ex-head of the Main Directorate of the ICR for Moscow, Alexander Drymanov, the ex-head of the department for interdepartmental cooperation and own security of the ICR, Mikhail Maksimenko, and the ex-head of the department for the ICR for the Central Administrative District, Alexei Kramarenko, were also involved in the case. The FSB believes that they received $ 1 million for the release of Kochuykov from the pre-trial detention center. To follow the plot of the fabricated case, police officers Denis Romashkin and Ildar Shakirov were also sent to the colony, who were allegedly inactive during the shootout.

It is known that Vladimir Kostrichenko, who on Sunday died in an accident in the Nizhny Novgorod region, was in the region on behalf of the lawyer Eduard Budantsev. He, being his confidant, represented the interests of the Budantsev group in several directions.



Some time ago, Budantsev and his people carried out a raider seizure of the assets of the Orgsintez OKA plant (Dzerzhinsk). During a banquet on the occasion of a successful "deal", which was attended by all the heads of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Nizhny Novgorod region, Kostrichenko said that he had taken an active part in the shootout on Rochdelskaya Street on the side of Budantsev. In his story, he spoke about the role of employees of the "emka" of the FSB of the Russian Federation, who from the very beginning intervened in the course of the investigation of criminal cases and, with the help of administrative pressure on the prosecutor's office and the courts, turned the situation in favor of Budantsev, giving him the opportunity to avoid criminal responsibility for the murder.

Recently, a high-ranking officer of the Nizhny Novgorod Ministry of Internal Affairs contacted the editorial office of Rucriminal.info on condition of anonymity, telling a story related to Budantsev and his group. The events unfolded in the fall of 2019, in one of the restaurants in the Nizhny Novgorod region, the meeting was attended by high-ranking officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Nizhny Novgorod region and a confidant of Budantsev Kostrichenko. The participants noted the successfully completed operation to re-register the assets of the Orgsintez OKA plant in Dzerdzhinsk, Nizhny Novgorod Region (raider seizure). We note right away that the police officers were blindly used by the Department of the M FSB of the Russian Federation in the interests of the Budantsev group, they were presented with the idea that the re-registration (raider takeover) of the enterprise was necessary to return the enterprise under the wing of the state (Rostec). The meeting was attended by almost all the heads of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Nizhny Novgorod region. Having solved all the technical problems for further interaction, after all, the victim Nikulin (the former owner of the enterprise) continued to complain both about the seizure of the enterprise and about illegal prosecution in a criminal case fabricated at the suggestion of Budantsev. Those who gathered, having drunk quite a lot, began to share interesting moments of their service activities. At some point, drunk Kostrichenko began to flaunt that he took an active part in the legendary shootout on Rochdelskaya Street, on the side of Budantsev. According to Rucriminal.info sources, in his story, Kostrichenko spoke about the role of employees of the Department of M of the FSB of the Russian Federation, who from the very beginning intervened in the course of the investigation of criminal cases and, with the help of administrative pressure on the prosecutor's office, courts, etc., turned the situation in favor of Budantsev, giving him the ability to avoid criminal liability for murder. Mentioned Kotrichenko and the former head of the Department M, and now acting. the head of the SEB FSB, General Alpatov, who patronizes Budantsev and his group.

Kostrichenko boasted of the patronage of Patrushev Jr. Kostrichenko by events on Rochdelskaya, was negatively assessed by the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation and its chairman Alexander Bastrykin, who, according to Kostrichenko, was practically removed from his post because of Budantsev.





According to a Rucriminal.info source who was present at the meeting, one of the police officers, interrupting Kostrichenko’s story, told those present that he was familiar with the police officers from the story of the shootout on Rochdelskaya Street and he knew that they were unreasonably accused of alleged inaction and convicted on the basis of slander. After that, the employee took out the phone and called someone. Putting the phone on speakerphone mode, he told the interlocutor that he was next to Kostrichenko. A male voice said that Kostrichenko is known to him as an extremely dishonorable person. Kostrichenko fell silent, and after a while, straightening his hair, he left the restaurant.

How the authority blinded Rublyovka

Surveillance cameras turned off for kidnapping on government highway

The jury of the Moscow Regional Court announced their verdict in the case of the kidnapping of a prominent businessman, US citizen Boris Minakha and his bodyguard. As the first telegram-kana of the Cheka-OGPU reported, two interesting characters were found to be completely guilty and not entitled to leniency. The first is Batyr Bekmuradov, the head of the security service of the thief in law Zakhar Kalashov, nicknamed Young Shakro. Batyr, along with his boss, was convicted of extortion, but now a new sentence has been passed on him - for kidnapping.



The second defendant in the case is David Mirzoev, a relative, former partner, and "right hand" of billionaire David Yakobashvili. Mirzoyev was arrested right in the courtroom.

Around this case, the "fight" was no less acute than around the case against the former investigator of the TFR Ruslan Miniakhmetov, and the heroes in both stories are the same. Mirzoyev, first through the fixer Andrei Matus, and then directly closely communicated with the Directorate of the FSB of the Russian Federation, which, to put it mildly, was not interested in the investigation reaching the final and a guilty verdict. In turn, the investigation itself was conducted by the Investigative Directorate of the FSB of the Russian Federation, and it was within its framework that most of the materials about the receipt of bribes by the Miniakhmetovs were collected.



The essence of the story is as follows. Yakobashvili had a longtime friend and partner, Boris Minakhi, with whom they quarreled to the ground over a large grain elevator and a number of other assets. Yakobashvili was ill then and most of his affairs were dealt with by David Mirzoev. The latter had an assistant for criminal affairs, Batyr Bekmuradov, whom he sent as the head of the security service to his senior comrade "thief in law" Zakhar Kalashov. It was Bekmuradov's militants, on the go-ahead of Mirzoyev, who kidnapped a businessman, US citizen Boris Minakha and his driver on Rublevskoye Highway, and took them to one of the construction sites. Mirzoyev and Bekmuradov arrived there with false mustaches, beards and wigs (so that they would not be identified). They began to demand from Minakhi to rewrite the shares of a large grain elevator. Minakhi promised to do everything, he was released.

According to the Cheka-OGPU and Rucriminal.info, the investigative department of the FSB of the Russian Federation during the investigation of the kidnapping of Boris Minakha came across an interesting fact. The crime was committed in the area of ​​Rublevskoye Highway and near Gorki (where, among others, Dmitry Medvedev lives), but the criminals managed to agree that at the time of the abduction, all surveillance cameras (including those on the government highway) were turned off at the time of the abduction. How this was done became the subject of a separate work by the FSB of the Russian Federation. However, it was not possible to establish who organized the "dark section". The accused - businessman David Mirzoev and Batyr Bekmuradov (security guard of thief in law Zakhar Kalashov) - refuse to testify on this matter. And the work of the FSB officers is complicated by the fact that the materials about the abduction came to them only two years after the abduction. All this time, Mirzoev, through Orlov, an employee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation in Moscow, managed to agree that, according to Minakha's statements, waivers were issued.

It was within the framework of the investigation into the abduction of Minakha that materials were collected on the receipt of bribes by the investigator of the TFR Ruslan Miniakhmetov and the employee of the 6th Internal Security Service of the FSB of the Russian Federation Dmitry Ulyanov. The money was given to them by the fixer Andrey Matus, who also solved problems for Mirzoev. And he paid him gigantic sums from himself and from David Yakobashvili.

On the audio recording published by Rucriminal.info, Mirzoev is interested in how the solution of the problems for which hundreds of millions of rubles have been transferred is progressing. And at the same time he talks about the state of Yakobashvili, who was ill then.

At that moment, Matus was simultaneously solving various criminal cases and topics for which the security officials were owed more than 700 million rubles.



End the criminal prosecution of Matus' partner Valery Semenduev - 5 million euros (the case was investigated by Miniakhmetov).



Initiate a case and send to the pre-trial detention center all the entourage of businessman Boris Minakha, who was in conflict with Yakobashvili. For this, the oligarch David Yakobashvili and his "right hand" David Mirzoev promised a total of 200 million rubles (100 million rubles in advance).


Stop a large, billion-dollar business that harmed the interests of the oligarch Shalva Gibradze. For this, an amount of 200 million rubles was also designated.


It was also necessary to help in solving the problems of Yakobashvili and Mirzoev on smaller stories - $ 1 million.


Since all these topics were "moving" at the same time, the parties agreed that they would not share bribes on business. There is a total amount in the region of over 700 million rubles and it must be repaid in installments. As money arrives, the work will be carried out in stages. For example, the prosecution of Semenduev will end when a total of € 5 million comes in. On most of the costly issues, Miniakhmetov and his friend Dmitry Ulyanov acted as intermediaries, claiming that they would share the money with the "fathers-generals." It should be noted that a significant part of what was promised by the investigator and operatives was fulfilled.

$ 1 million from Tatler for generals and thief in law

The commander of group A of the FSB in the assistants of billionaires and mafiosi





The Moscow Regional Court today will host a decisive hearing on the kidnapping of a prominent businessman Boris Minakha and his bodyguard. Two interesting characters appeared before the servants of Themis. The first is Batyr Bekmuradov, the head of the security service of the thief in law Zakhar Kalashov, nicknamed Young Shakro. Batyr, along with his boss, was convicted of extortion, but now a new trial awaits him - on charges of kidnapping. The second defendant in the case is David Mirzoev, a relative of the billionaire David Yakobashvili, and the same Kalashov.



The essence of the story is as follows. Yakobashvili had a longtime friend and partner, Boris Minakhi, with whom they quarreled to the ground over a large grain elevator and a number of other assets. Yakobashvili was ill then and most of his affairs were dealt with by David Mirzoev. The latter had an assistant for criminal affairs, Batyr Bekmuradov, whom he sent as the head of the security service to his senior comrade "thief in law" Zakhar Kalashov. It was Bekmuradov's militants, on the go-ahead of Mirzoyev, who kidnapped a businessman, US citizen Boris Minakha and his driver on Rublevskoye Highway, and took them to one of the construction sites. Mirzoyev and Bekmuradov arrived there with false mustaches, beards and wigs (so that they would not be identified). They began to demand from Minakhi to rewrite the shares of a large grain elevator. Minakhi promised to do everything, he was released and he immediately went with a statement to the police.



The same amicable campaign is featured in another, never fully disclosed, case - about a bribe of $ 1 million for a group of leading ICR officers for the release of "authority" Andrei Kochuikov (Italian), who is Shakro's "right hand". The same campaign plus one person is one of the richest businessmen in the south of Russia, the owner of Novosstal and Novorosmetall, Shalva Yuzaevich Gibradze.



As Rucriminal.info told, events developed as follows. When, after the massacre at the Elements restaurant, the Italian found himself behind bars, it immediately became known that Shakro would be grateful to the one who would pull his friend out of the dungeons. And Kalashov's gratitude is worth a lot. Just to give money (and a lot), 10-15 top businessmen were ready. However, they still needed someone who actually knew who to give them to in order for the necessary to happen.



David Yakobashvili and David Mirzoev are not only friends with Shakro, but are his relatives. Gibradze is Yakobashvili's partner in a number of projects and is also a friend of Shakro. They decided together to look for ways out to the leading employees of the TFR capable of influencing the situation. Everyone was from the south of Russia and knew that a fixer from the Krasnodar Territory Dmitry Smychkovsky was extremely close to the TFR. But none of them personally knew him. And even a "nodding" acquaintance was not enough. Smychkovsky on such issues would not discuss anything even with respectable people.

We started looking for ways out, asked the fixer Andre Matus about it. He knew that Smychkovsky's closest friend at that time was Aleksandr Pakholchenko, the current head of the unit in the Krasnodar Territory (KK) of the Alpha group of the FSB of the Russian Federation. He is a close friend and godfather of the then head of the Investigative Committee of the Investigative Committee of the Investigative Committee for KK Bugaenko and participated in many "topics". At the same time, Pakholchenko rendered such a service to businessmen, including reputable ones, as providing security with the forces of Alpha fighters. In 2018, he was fired from the FSB "due to a loss of confidence." It was found that Pakholchenko was living beyond his means. In particular, in order to be summoned to the service at the signal "Gathering", he indicated his place of residence in a luxurious mansion, registered with his mother. However, it was found that the real owner of the cottage is Pakholchenko himself.



Pakholchenko agreed to help in this delicate matter and discuss everything with Smychkovsky. The latter, under the guarantee of Pakholchenko and Matus, agreed to meet to discuss the topic with Mirzoev and Gibradze. The meeting took place in Moscow at the Tatler restaurant. It was decided there that the fee for the service would be $ 1 million ($ 500 thousand from Mirzoev and Yakobashvili and 500 thousand from Gibradze). Mirzoev and Gibradze took over all the financial component, and Smychkovsky had to deal with technical issues directly with Shakro.

The money went away as a result. The Italian was almost released, but at the door of the pre-trial detention center he was met by an officer of the FSB of the Russian Federation. They also soon detained a group of ICR officers, and then Shakro. Smychkovsky managed to leave Russia. On it, the thread leading to the one who paid $ 1 million was cut off.

Who allocated $ 1 million for thief in law Shakro

How a billionaire sponsored a bribe to the security forces from the mafia



In the case of giving a bribe of $ 1 million to ICR employees for the release of the authority of Andrei Kochuikov (Ialyanets is the "right hand" of thief in law Zakhar Kalashov (Shakro), the main question remained unanswered - who allocated this gigantic amount to bribe law enforcement officers. The money was directly transferred by the "fixer" Dmitry Smychkovsky, but he was only an intermediary between the ICR employees and the person who allocated $ 1 million in the interests of Shakro.So who is this person? that this person was businessman Albert Khudoyan.

Sources of the VChK-OGPU telegram channel told under what circumstances this version appeared. When Khudoyan had a conflict with Ildar Samiev and Sergei Govyadin, they entered into secret negotiations with Smychkovsky, who was already on the wanted list. The essence of the deal he was offered was simple. Smychkovsky will testify that it was Khudoyan who gave the $ 1 million as a bribe to the ICR employees. The beef man organizes everything in such a way that Khudoyan will end up behind bars for a very long time. And Smychkovsky during this time will be able to seize all joint assets with Khudoyan, in particular the OZ Mall shopping center. Moreover, he will be able to return to the Russian Federation and he will not be jailed for bribery. Smychkovsky agreed, but made a reservation that he would give testimony only if he saw that the topic of "bribe from Khudoyan" by the FSB had started. Otherwise, it will turn out the other way around and Khudoyan can leave him without a share in the assets.

As a result, Samiev testified at the Investigation Department of the FSB of the Russian Federation that he was present during the conversation between Khudoyan and Smychkovsky, during which the former ordered the latter to “take out” $ 1 million from the profits from shopping centers and transfer it as a bribe to the ICR employees. Thus, Khudoyan allegedly wanted to make a gift to his acquaintance, the thief in law Shakro, who was very worried about the fate of the Italian's friend. Then Smychkovsky was supposed to speak with his testimony. It was discussed that he would send them in writing or, for example, give them by Skype. However, the Investigation Department of the FSB of the Russian Federation was extremely skeptical about Samiev's testimony. The support promised by Govyadin from the FSB operatives did not follow. And Smychkovsky, as they say, jumped off the testimony. Beef Maxim that he could squeeze out of the situation is to rinse the topic of “bribe from Khudoyan” in the media. After the generals of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who were arrested for allegedly helping Khudoyan, were released, Smychkovsky is very worried whether he will find out about his "conspiracy" with Samiev and Govyadin Khudoyan. Otherwise, you can stay without income while on the run in England.

Smychkovsky is a close friend and partner of businessman Albert Khudoyan. Together they decided, together they invested fat in shopping centers in the Kuban, in particular, they own the OZ Mall in Krasnodar. The senior partner in this group was Khudoyan.

There were other testimonies in the case materials about who gave the $ 1 million. And the FSB of the Russian Federation gave them a go, carefully checked them.

According to the testimony of witnesses, the discussion and transfer of $ 1 million to fixer Dmitry Smychkovsky took place in one of the Moscow restaurants. The money was given by David Mirzoev, a relative of thief in law Shakro the Young. It was a sum from him and his business partner and relative David Yakobashvili, who also knew Shakro. Smychkovsky gave the money to the ICR staff. They began to work out the version and a lot converged. Indeed, at the indicated time there were negotiations in the appropriate restaurant. Moreover, Mirzoyev and Yakobashvili paid for Shakro's numerous guards and security services. Batyr Bekmuradov, who carried out the orders of the thief in law and was responsible for his safety, was the person of Mirzoev and Yakobashvili. Now Mirzoyev and Bekmuradov are being tried for the kidnapping of Boris Minakha, a former friend and business partner of Yakobashvili, with whom they could not share assets.

However, then, as the source told Rucriminal.info, Yakobashvili, who was sitting abroad, resolved his questions at a high level and the topic from $ 1 million was simply lowered to nothing. It was considered that it was not possible to collect a sufficient amount of evidence confirming the version that the money was given by Mirshchoev and Yakobashvili. As a result, the verdict says that $ 1 million was received “from an unidentified person from the circle of Z.K. Kalashov. through the mediation of DE Smychkovsky. "
