As a source of the VChK-OGPU telegram channel said, a whole rescue operation is being prepared in a criminal case that is being heard in the Meshchansky Court of Moscow. There, ex-deputy head of the Russian Ministry of Energy Anatoly Tikhonov is on trial, accused of accepting bribes. The source explained why Tikhonov received special treatment. According to him, he is a relative of Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Alexander Novak. As a result, the head of the Main Criminal Judicial Directorate of the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation, Sergei Bazhutov, on the personal instructions of Prosecutor General Igor Krasnov, is preparing a luxurious gift for Novak (whom the Kremlin sees as the new head of Gazprom) in the form of a suspended sentence for the bribe-taker, as well as his accomplices. If you don’t believe me, come to the debate, and together we’ll listen to how the prosecutor “leaks” a high-profile case. Everything would be fine if Bazhutov kept his mouth shut and didn’t walk around offices and complain that he was tired of traveling around the country and saving corrupt officials...
Rucriminal.info became aware of the details of Tikhonov’s activities in high positions and his relationship with the security forces. The first meeting between Anatoly Tikhonov and employees of the GUEBiPK of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia took place in 2011. Then the “B” department of the GUEBiPK Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia tried to bribe Tikhonov and employees of the General Prosecutor’s Office of Russia. However, everything was taken upon himself by the son of the Solntsevo authority, Avdokha, whom the first deputy chairman of the board of VEB of Russia Tikhonov kept with him as an assistant on special assignments, or more simply to receive bribes.
Director of the Directorate Roman Shcherbov was arrested for extorting a bribe under a contract for GIS FEC in 2015 and was released in 2020. In 2016, Shcherbov did not testify against Tikhonov, counting on the gratitude of his boss and the family with whom he became related by marrying Maria Eltsova, the daughter of Lyubov Eltsova from Nornickel oligarch Potanin.
Shcherbov will be tried again on 02/28/2024 for participation in embezzlement in the same GIS FEC project, and this time Shcherbov did not cover up the embezzlement and cashing out of 740 million rubles. and sit for your former boss. Let us recall that the GIS fuel and energy complex system, which never worked, was supposed to ensure transparency of tariffs, energy consumption and consumption throughout Russia. It is not at all surprising that Novak entrusted his eminence grise Tikhonov with such an important mission. Tikhonov, in turn, also attracted the trust company Lanit, and the GISTEK system and its data were supposed to imitate transparency and show the consumption required by Krasnoyarsk.
Everything would be fine, but Tolya’s ideal 30% kickback system failed at ISSB LLC, which did not want to be part of Tikhonov’s criminal plan. Roman Shcherbov attracted the entire reserve of accomplices to intimidate ISSB LLC, but the result was the arrest of Roman Shcherbov himself along with his accomplices.
Roman Shcherbov is not the first subordinate of Anatoly Tikhonov, who became a bargaining chip in his gray schemes. Even the Deputy Minister of Energy and curator of the creation of GIS FEC, and now Governor Texler openly stated that he did not intend to sit because of Tikhonov’s greed and, in order not to have anything to do with him, he left the capital for Chelyabinsk, leaving Tolya 30% carte blanche in the Ministry of Energy.
Before joining the Ministry of Energy in 2011, Anatoly Tikhonov was deputy chairman at VEB, and his advisors were Shakhnin and Maxim Avdokhin. Stepan Shakhnin is the same age as Tikhonov and has been walking with him hand in hand since the 90s, when both worked at the Russian Public Fund for Disabled Military Persons under Radchikov, then Shakhnin was Tikhonov’s constant adviser in the Krasnoyarsk administration and also went with him to VEB. As we remember, the conflict between Likhodey and Radchikov led to the death of the former and an explosion at the Kotlyakovsky cemetery.
In 2011, Maxim Avdokhin was thirty years old and his father, Oleg Avdokhin, a member of the Solntsevskaya organized crime group, won the position of adviser to the first deputy chairman of VEB. As we know, the head of Solnevsky, Andrey Skoch, owns Vnukovo-Cargo LLC, where the judge’s brother L.A. Kravchuk works. and through which the Foundation transported smuggled alcohol and cigarettes.
Let us recall that we previously talked about the connections of Judge Kravchuk, who is also leading the GISTEK case in the interests of Tikhonov, and about her connections with the Solntsevskaya organized crime group. >>>>
Avdokhin Jr. was destined for a rapid career at VEB, but Tikhonov’s greed made its own adjustments.
Anatoly Tikhonov has been scamming businessmen since the dashing 90s, and apparently it is precisely this unique talent that the Krasnoyarsk clan value in him.
In 2011, Tikhonov, despite his huge official income at VEB, decided to scam a certain businessman against whom the Federal Customs Service opened a case of smuggling. Despite the fact that according to the law the businessman was not threatened with prosecution, the Federal Customs Service did not intend to drop the criminal case.
Anatoly Tikhonov involved his deputies Avdokhin and Shakhnin, as well as investigator of the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation Denis Mayorov and the head of anti-corruption in the FCS Vadim Borisov, for the extortion of $150 thousand, allegedly for resolving the issue with the Federal C and Tikhonov’s deputies, Avdokhin and Shakhnin, were arrested, and the bribe was already in Anatoly Tikhonov’s safe.
Operations department “B” of the Main Directorate of Economics and Practical Affairs happily burst into Anatoly Tikhonov’s office with a search, but they miscalculated and ended up being interrogated for provoking a bribe.
Maxim Avdokhin in 2011, as well as Roman Shcherbov in 2016, were silent about who received the money, but Tolya 30% got away with it just like the FTS employees, but Shakhnin and Avdokhin were convicted of fraud in the group.
This criminal case was part of a chain of cases involving the so-called “prosecutor’s casinos,” in which the Prosecutor General of Russia, Chaika, shared a clearing with Kolokoltsev. That time, Chaika managed to get Tikhonov out, and after his resignation, Tikhonov’s old affairs began to move forward. The Krasnoyarsk people, represented by Khloponin and Potanin, in turn repaid Chaika and assigned him to supervise the Caucasus region at a time when Khloponin was still there.
What will happen now to Tikhonov, who will soon be sentenced?
Representatives of Lanit JSC, as if in unison, repeat that there was absolutely no reason for them to pay bribes to Tikhonov, since GISTEK is too small a contract for their appetites, but they do not say that GISTEK and personal agreements with Tikhonov entail a series of new billion-dollar contracts for Lanit , and the system had already been created earlier, and the Ministry of Energy itself was involved in setting it up.
GIS TEK was supposed to control the entire energy sector of the Russian Federation, and Lanit would have to regularly $$$ service this system on a contract basis in the same way as they service the Ministry of Education, the Tax System and much more.
In general, all VIP representatives of the judicial system gathered in Tikhonov’s case: Judge Karakeshisheva judges exclusively VIPs and, before Tikhonov, rescued his comrade from Krasnoyarsk and VEB-VEB Anatoly Ballo for even greater thefts. Tikhonov’s interests in the Investigative Committee have been supervised by the Bagmet and Bakun family since the first days of the criminal case. Lawyer Bagmet is the son of the former head of the Investigative Committee at the Moscow Prosecutor's Office. Maxim Bakun is the son of an employee of the Russian State Enterprise and a former subordinate of Bagmet.
Kolokoltsev happily reported to the State Duma of the Russian Federation about the transfer of Tikhonov’s case to the court, but he forgot to tell how many bribes he personally received under similar contracts from Sergei Shilov and his League, which has been at war with Gens for many years.
