Story

This unit was created on March 16, 1937 as part of the Main Police Directorate of the People's Commissariat of Internal Affairs of the USSR. The adopted regulations on the OBKhSS, in particular, stated that it was created to “ensure the fight against the theft of socialist property in organizations and institutions of state trade, as well as to combat profiteering.” Names in different years - BKhSS, GUBKhSS, GUEP, GUBEP, DEB. In 2008, by decree of the President of the Russian Federation, the Department was given the functions of combating corruption and organized crime in the economic sphere (the structure included ORB No. 3 (for combating corruption) and ORB No. 10 (for combating organized crime in the economic sphere).

As the central apparatus, it supervises the UBEP (department for combating economic crimes) and the UNP (department for tax crimes), which are structurally part of the regional internal affairs bodies.

The head of the “T” department of the GUEBiPK turned the service into a commercial department for “solving” criminal cases

Mikhail Yakovlev

Recently, the Basmanny Court of Moscow left in custody until August 17 the deputy of the Mozhaisk Municipal Assembly, Roman Lyakhov, who was arrested at the beginning of the year. The head of the “Russian Party of Pensioners for Justice” faction of the Council of Deputies of the Mozhaisk District, Lyakhov, offered the businessman assistance in purchasing a property in the center of Moscow. For $2.5 million, he tried to sell a building in the Ostozhenka area that did not belong to him using forged documents, and was detained red-handed by police officers while receiving the first tranche in the amount of $500 thousand.

On February 17, the Main Investigation Department for Moscow opened a criminal case under Article 159, Part 2 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (fraud). Since the investigation considered $2.5 million to be an especially large sum, under this article you can get 10 years.

Not only does the story of the acquaintance and business relationship between the victim and the suspect look somewhat implausible, if not “delusional,” but it also turned out that “non-core” police took over the case. From the very beginning, the head of the “T” department of the GUEBiPK of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation showed interest in this case Evgeny Pavlov, whose division specializes in solving crimes in the fuel (hence the “T” in the name) and other raw materials sectors of the economy. In the “T” management structure, the 44th department is directly involved in the development of the case.

The media have repeatedly reported that the GUEBiPK of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation in general and the department headed by Pavlov in particular are more reminiscent of an armed corporation for squeezing money out of entrepreneurs, officials and criminals.

And this time Evgeny Pavlov did not disappoint, confirming the reputation of himself, his management and his department. The interest of Pavlov’s fighters in the real estate scam found a completely rational explanation. The fact is that the deputy was offered to close the case for $3 million. Otherwise, he was promised, we quote: “to suck in as much as possible.” Obviously, we are talking about the same 10 years of imprisonment provided for by this article of the Criminal Code. At least, it is difficult to understand this formulation otherwise. The deputy’s lawyers were forced to write a statement to the “M” department of the FSB of the Russian Federation that their client was being extorted $3 million to drop the case.

But even here the accused Moscow region deputy was not lucky. Mr. Pavlov has been in this business for a long time, he knows the rules of the game very well, and the relationship between the GUEBiPK and the “M” department of the FSB has a long history. In general, the police fighters against corruption and economic crimes, accused by the suspect’s representatives, collected “one” - $1 million and brought it to their curators in the “M” department and thereby localized the possible problem. Now you can’t envy the people involved in the case; after exposing the police from the “T” department for $1 million, they seriously aggravated their situation.

Apparently, it was wiser to accept the police offer and withdraw from the criminal case for the announced amount. Many people do this. This is, in particular, what the Karachay-Cherkess organizers of illegal VAT refund schemes did. The fictitious VAT refund was carried out through the company Kavkaz-Export LLC (TIN: 0917010401), registered in the Karachay-Cherkess Republic. After these operations, Kavkaz-Export LLC was removed from tax registration from the Federal Tax Service No. 3 for the Karachay-Cherkess Republic and transferred to Moscow. In Moscow, the company was checked, and questions about the criminal VAT refund to the company’s management arose not only from tax authorities, but also from law enforcement agencies.

Criminal case No. 400395 dated May 4, 2014 was initiated under Art. 159 of the Criminal Code. In addition, the case against the deputy head of the Federal Tax Service of Russia for the Karachay-Cherkess Republic, 1st class adviser to the state civil service of the Russian Federation, Khazret Dantesovich Nirov, has been separated into separate proceedings. During the investigative measures, the head of the company, Radik Khamitovich Batashev, began to cooperate and indicated the names of those involved in the “protection scheme” of illegal schemes of influential people in the republic. In particular, the following were involved in the topic: the then head of the Department for Economic Crimes of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Karachay-Cherkess Republic, and the chief of police of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Karabakh Republic, Albert Karabashev, the senator from the Karachay-Cherkess Republic Ratmir Aibazov and... - Evgeniy Pavlov.

The first two are considered representatives of the same Karachay-Cherkess group. So, for example, being the head of the UBEP Ministry of Internal Affairs of the KCR, Karabashev “protected” large enterprises, illegally receiving bribes, took part in the collapse and looting of the Karachay mine administration together with Senator Ratmir Aibazov, who cleverly evaded criminals of Karachay nationality from responsibility, ordering the judges of the KCR what decision accept. In Dombay, Ratmir Aibazov has the Belalakaya hotel, and Karabashev’s boss in the same Dombay owns several hotels, including the Grand Hotel.

Pavlov is no stranger to the republic. He is a protégé of the former manager of the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation and deputy head of the presidential administration of the Russian Federation, Nazir Hapsirokov, and participated in the collapse of investigations into several episodes against the head of the Karachay-Cherkess Republic Rashid Temrezov. So this time, Pavlov is faced with the task of removing from under attack all those involved in the implementation of illegal schemes.

Considering the previous experience of similar cases, you can safely, without much risk, bet on the outcome of each of the two criminal cases described. Apparently, the swindlers who tried to make money from the illegal sale of a mansion in the center of Moscow will have a much harder time than the organizers of illegal VAT refund schemes.

The criminal case against the deputy head of the “T” department of the Economic Security and Anti-Corruption Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Dmitry Zakharchenko, is not related to the case of the Investigative Committee generals, TASS reports, citing an informed source in law enforcement agencies.

“The detention of Zakharchenko, suspected of abuse of power, has nothing to do with the so-called case of investigators of the Investigative Committee - Denis Nikandrov, Mikhail Maksimenko and Alexander Lamonov, who are accused of taking a bribe,” said the agency’s interlocutor.

According to him, the case against Zakharchenko was initiated on the basis of operational materials and at the request of the injured party.

Earlier, an Interfax source said that Zakharchenko was detained as part of a corruption case in the Investigative Committee. According to him, Zakharchenko warned high-ranking officers of the Investigative Committee Mikhail Maksimenko, his deputy Alexander Lamonov and the first deputy head of the capital's main directorate of the Investigative Committee Denis Nikandrov that operational work was being carried out against them.

According to the agency’s interlocutor, Zakharchenko informed Slobodin about the operational development in the case of corruption in the Komi Republic, which is being carried out against him. After this, the former head of VimpelCom “hurriedly left the territory of the Russian Federation.”

As the source noted, when investigating corruption cases, the special services constantly turned to the “T” department of the GUEB of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for information. “Therefore, Zakharchenko was aware of all the operational activities carried out against major officials and businessmen, and used this for personal gain,” the source said.

Interfax reported that Zakharchenko will soon be charged with taking a bribe

“Zakharchenko has been charged under Article 290, Article 285 and Article 294 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation,” the court materials say.

Zakharchenko was charged with receiving a bribe of seven million rubles

Deputy head of the GUEBiPK department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs Dmitry Zakharchenko is accused of receiving a bribe in the amount of seven million rubles, the Moscow agency reports.

“Why is the bribe worth 7 million rubles and not 8 million rubles? This is humor. I didn't take a bribe. This has not been confirmed by anything. If this is a bribe, then for what? There are a lot of questions,” said Zakharchenko.

Dmitry Zakharchenko does not admit his guilt and asks for house arrest

In the Presnensky court, at the pre-trial detention hearing, Dmitry Zakharchenko did not admit his guilt in the incriminated crimes, RIA Novosti reports.

“It's not my money. Neither actually nor theoretically this money has anything to do with me. I was not in this apartment. I didn't take a bribe. I didn’t have any money in my hands. If there was a conversation, then it can be perceived as “joke”, as humor. All the charges are unclear to me; there is no evidence base in the materials,” Zakharchenko said in court.

“I am asking for house arrest in a relative’s apartment. There are cameras installed everywhere, even in the toilet - you can watch me like Dom-2,” he noted.

The defense of the colonel accused of bribery offered bail in the amount of 70 million rubles

Acting head of the "T" department of the GUEBiPK Ministry of Internal Affairs Zakharchenko was arrested by the court until November 8

Context

MOSCOW, September 10 - RAPSI, Oleg Sivozhelezov. The Presnensky Court of Moscow chose a preventive measure in the form of detention in relation to the acting head of department "T" of the Main Directorate of Economic Security and Anti-Corruption (GUEBiPK) of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MVD) of Russia, Dmitry Zakharchenko, accused of abuse of power, obstruction of a preliminary investigation and receiving a bribe on an especially large scale, a RAPSI correspondent reported from the courtroom on Saturday.

Thus, the court granted the investigator’s request to arrest Zakharchenko until November 8.

The defense of the accused objected to the choice of a preventive measure in the form of detention. Lawyer Yuri Novikov asked the court to choose alternative measures - house arrest at Zakharchenko’s actual place of residence, or bail in the amount of 70 million rubles. Novikov proposed his candidacy to the court as a pledgor. Also at the meeting, information about the identity of the accused was announced, according to which the acting head of the “T” department of the GUEBiPK Ministry of Internal Affairs has three higher educations and is a candidate of economic sciences. In addition, Zakharchenko is dependent on two young children.

As follows from the materials announced by the court, on September 8, a criminal case was opened against Zakharchenko on the grounds of committing crimes under Part 1 of Article 285 and Part 3 of Article 294 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation - abuse of official powers and obstruction of the investigation of the case. A day later, on September 9, a criminal case was opened for receiving a bribe on an especially large scale (part 6 of Article 290 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation), after which all three episodes were combined into one case.

According to the FSB certificate presented in the case materials, an incomplete circle of persons in the case has currently been identified. As established by operational employees of the department, the acting head of the “T” department of the GUEBiPK Ministry of Internal Affairs patronized the heads of several commercial structures, receiving large bribes from them. At today's meeting, we were talking about illegal monetary reward in the amount of 7 million rubles, while the investigation allows for the identification of other episodes of bribery in the future.

Earlier, the Ministry of Internal Affairs confirmed the fact of a joint event between the FSB and the Main Directorate of Internal Security of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, as a result of which the acting head of Directorate “T” of the GUEBiPK was detained.

Based on the case materials, as a result of searches in the car and one of the apartments, a large amount of cash was found. At the meeting, the investigator announced the amount of money seized from the accused in the amount of about 9 billion rubles.

Zakharchenko himself denies any relation to the seized funds.

“There was no money in my hands, the fact that money was transferred to me was not recorded. The funds seized from the car belong to the owner of the car, who is an entrepreneur, and I had not been to the apartment of my married adult sister, where money was also found,” - the accused objected to the investigators' arguments.
