Umar Kremlev (Umarali Lutfulloev) was born on November 1, 1982 in the city of Serpukhov, Moscow region, RSFSR, USSR, according to other sources - urban-type settlement Oktyabrsky, Shakhrinavsky district, Tajik SSR, USSR. In 2005 he graduated from the Moscow State Academy of Public Utilities and Construction.
In his youth, Kremlev was involved in boxing, but at the age of 19 he left the sport and went into business, working in the taxi, construction and security sectors, as well as in the catering industry. From 2009 to 2012, he served as president of the Center for Strategic Development and Modernization under the State Duma of the Russian Federation. Then he became the head of the promotion company "Patriot". Current member of the executive committee and former Secretary General of the Russian Boxing Federation (2017 - 2020). In 2018, at the Congress of the International Boxing Association (AIBA) in Moscow, Umar Kremlev was elected to the Association’s Executive Committee by a majority vote, and in December 2020 he became its president.
Umar Kremlev is a former member of the Serpukhov organized crime group in the 2000s. He changed his last name to hide his criminal record. In 2004, Lutfulloev was convicted by the Serpukhov City Court for extortion committed by a group of persons by prior conspiracy. He received a suspended four-year prison sentence with a five-year probationary period. In October 2006, he was again arrested for battery. The Magistrate Court of the Serpukhov Judicial District sentenced Lutfulloev to only a year of suspended imprisonment.
The Kremlin has gained fame as a true patriot of Russia. On the eve of the 2024 Olympic Games in June, he called for the removal of its head, Thomas Bach, from the IOC and appealed to 49 Russian athletes with a proposal to burn their Olympic licenses. The Kremlin called those who are going to perform at the Olympic Games in Paris without the Russian flag and anthem traitors. However, back in 2021. Umar Kremlev was friends with a fighter from Tajikistan, Chorshanbe Chorshanbiev, who openly declared that he hated Russia, for which he was deported from it in 2022, and received a prison sentence of 8.5 years in his homeland. The Kremlin also became involved in the scandal with Kamila Valieva - the website inside the games, owned by a sports official, was the only one to report to the whole world about doping allegedly discovered in the Russian figure skater.
Alexey Rubezhny, head of the Security Service of the President of the Russian Federation since 2016, is considered the patron of Umar Kremlev. In 2017, Rubezhny headed the highest supervisory board of the Russian Boxing Federation (FBI), after which the president of this organization, Boris Ivanyuzhenkov, decided not to be re-elected for a new term. Ivanyuzhenkov was replaced by Umar Kremlev. Subsequently, thanks to the friendship of Alexei Rubezhny, the Kremlin received at its disposal the assets of the ex-head of the Serpukhov region Alexander Shestun and the leader of the Podolsk organized crime group Sergei Lalakin (Luchka), as well as the Rolf car dealer, taken from the ex-State Duma deputy Sergei Petrov. Sometimes the transfer documents were signed personally by Vladimir Putin.
Umar Kremlev, together with VTB Bank, controlled Sports Lotteries LLC until 2023, making money on bets. The proceeds were not used for the development of amateur sports, but for the luxurious life of a sports official who flew on a business jet and rode exclusively in luxury limousines. Back in 2020, Umar Kremlev took over the bookmaker market with a turnover of 1.25 trillion rubles, creating the Unified Gambling Regulator (URAI), which became the “private shop” of a sports official. In 2023, the Kremlin proposed that ERAI also serve as a regulator of online games.
The Kremlin successfully combines sports management with business; it is the founder of 10 companies operating in the fields of real estate, law, advertising, sports, investments, furniture and chocolate production. Most enterprises are registered in Serpukhov.
Dossier
Where did Umar Kremlev come from, what else does he earn, who gave him inviolable status? At one time, a source from the Cheka-OGPU and Rucriminal.info said that Umar, by chance, met Alexei Rubezhny (head of the security service of the President of the Russian Federation and part-time deputy head of the FSO) through the Night Wolves biker club. Umar at one time “hanged out” with the “wolves” and managed to gain the trust of their friend Rubezhny, now the person who has the greatest opportunity for personal, constant communication with Putin. The Russian Boxing Federation was a gloomy and dull place, and it was there that the decision was made to place Umar, with the task of developing boxing, collecting money from entrepreneurs and actively establishing, under the auspices of the development of this sport, connections mainly with the countries of the Middle East.

The new owner of Russia's largest car dealer, Rolf, which was taken away from ex-State Duma deputy Sergei Petrov, became the President of the International Boxing Association (IBA), Umar Kremlev. This is far from the first property wrested from disgraced businessmen and given to the Kremlin. For example, he got almost all of Alexander Shestun’s assets. The reason for such benefits for the former criminal Umar Lutfulloev, as already The Cheka-OGPU has repeatedly reported that he is a “drop” of the head of the Presidential Security Service, Alexei Rubezhny. Therefore, sometimes Putin personally signs documents on the transfer of assets to the Kremlin.

Umar Kremlev was given the opportunity to earn money on bets so that the proceeds would be spent on supporting amateur sports, but he thinks differently. On his latest foreign tour, he behaves like an Arab billionaire sheikh: he flies on a business jet, rides exclusively in luxury limousines, and spends the annual budget of an average Russian city on clothes. In difficult times for the country, a figure of his level, who owes all his achievements to his friendship with the head of the SBP Rubezhny, could have behaved more modestly. The Kremlin’s social networks are a manifestation of small-town luxury and country chic, but no one cares about what’s going on with amateur mass sports.

The Unified Gambling Regulator reported its financial results for 2021. As ERAI reports, at the end of 2021, targeted deductions from gambling amounted to more than 10 billion rubles. But we will not now touch on the fact that this is not the merit of the ERAI, because the “Single Regulator” has been operating only since October 1, 2021.
The ERAI financial report is another reason to take a closer look at the regulator, which is a public law company only in form, but in fact is a “private shop” of the President of the International Boxing Association (IBA) Umar Kremlev & Co.

Umar Kremlev was previously included in the list of owners of real estate in the Moscow region, whose names and surnames are hidden in all databases behind the designation “Russian Federation”, under pseudonyms or codes. Initially, such a list was supposed to hide from prying eyes information about individual employees of the FSB, GRU, persons under state protection, as witnesses in high-profile cases or whose lives are in danger. The twice-convicted head of the Russian Boxing Federation, Umar Kremlev (aka Umar-Ali Lutfulloev), looks very strange on the classified list next to the head of one of the Russian FSB Services.

Sources spoke about an interesting turn in history when it turned out that Umar Kremlev is the beneficiary of the inside the games website, which was the only one to report to the whole world about doping allegedly discovered in a Russian figure skater and launched a new wave of negativity on the topic “athletes from the Russian Federation and doping.” This news was immediately picked up and developed by the Federation for the Legal Defense of Sports, which began to offer itself to protect athletes accused of doping, including at the international level. The interesting thing about this is that the founder of the Federation of Legal Defense is the same Kremlin.

Kremlev literally burst into the public sphere, successively heading first the Russian Boxing Federation and then the International Boxing Association (AIBA), but very little is known about him. In Serpukhov, where Kremlev spent his youth, he said about him that the future head of world boxing, then bearing the last name Lutfulloev, began his career in a local organized crime group, managed to receive convictions for extortion and beatings in 2004 and 2007, and in 2014 was in jail for a long time due to an armed conflict with police officers. Kremlev himself denies his criminal past, claiming that in his youth he was a boxer, and then immediately became a businessman in the taxi and construction industries.

New Year and Christmas are still ahead, but miracles have already begun. The Cheka-OGPU showed a video in which the Secretary General of the Russian Boxing Federation Umar Kremlev was giving a speech for patriotism next to his friend, a fighter from Tajikistan, Chorshanbe Chorshanbiev. The latter is known for the fact that he likes to publicly repeat that he hates Russia and calls “Russians” “Nazis.” It is noteworthy that since 2018, Chorshanbiev was banned from entering Russia and was in the country as an illegal migrant. However, when your friend is Umar Kremlev (Lutfulloev), you can do whatever you want.

The Russian Boxing Federation (FBR), under the leadership of Umar Kremlev, is attempting to establish control over the entire bookmaker market with a turnover of 1.25 trillion rubles. The Kremlin has already sent a letter to Mikhail Mishustin with a proposal to liquidate the current SROs "Association of Bookmakers" and "First SRO of Bookmakers of Russia", appointing instead the public law company "Unified Regulator of Sports Forecast" as the controller and regulator. A twice-convicted person is going to control cash flows. Kremlev's former name (this is his wife's surname) is Umar Ali Lutfulloev, and he has already received two sentences for extortion and battery.
