As the VChK-OGPU Telegram channel and Rucriminal.info learned, an organized criminal group in power has formed in South Ossetia, profiting from the embezzlement of funds allocated by Russia as part of the program for the socio-economic development of the Republic of South Ossetia for 2022-2025. According to sources, the head of government Konstantin Dzhussoyev and President Alan Gagloyev are involved in the theft.
The scheme works as follows: VTB Bank, when allocating financing, requires 10% of its own investments from businessmen. Dzhussoyev receives these funds through controlled firms already involved in the construction of facilities under the investment program. Of each advance allocated by the government, half ends up in the pockets of the organized crime group members. Despite corruption schemes, a number of projects in South Ossetia received VTB approval:
Fruit and vegetable processing plant (OOO SUBIRA AV): Total funding 656 million rubles (own funds 76 million, borrowed 580 million).
Stone mining and processing enterprise (OOO IMPULSE-A): Total investment 544 million rubles (own funds 55 million, borrowed 489 million).
Development of brewing production (OOO Vysokogornaya Kelskaya Brewery): Total funding 280 million rubles (own funds 30 million, borrowed 250 million).
Woodworking plant (OOO Alania-Les): Funding 722 million rubles (own funds 92 million, borrowed 630 million).
Increase in basalt fiber production (OOO Ir Bazalt): Borrowed financing of 1,045,300 thousand rubles.
As the VChK-OGPU found out, the main contractor for the construction of school #2 and kindergarten in Tsarza is OOO Megapolis, owned by Oleg Bosikov, a cousin of Prime Minister Dzhussoev. Oleg's older brother, Vladimir Bosikov, is engaged in the construction of the woodworking plant. The stone processing plant is registered to Dzhussoev's business partner in North Ossetia, Boris Tasoev.
So, the essence of the scam is in the manipulation of the financing of socio-economic development projects and loans from VTB Bank.
Initially, the advance funds from one program are transferred to other projects implemented as part of the development of South Ossetia. These funds are presented to VTB Bank as 10% of the personal contribution of a local businessman, allegedly investing in the construction of the facilities. The bank, seeing the participation of local capital, allocates the rest of the financing.
However, as it turns out, businessmen do not invest their own funds, but use the same VTB loan money.
In addition, construction estimates are inflated. For example, according to Rucriminal.info, if the construction of the canning factory buildings in the village of Pris cost 100 million rubles, then Russian partners were provided with data on 150-200 million rubles. After receiving full financing from the bank, the "investment" funds are returned to the scheme.
As a result, the facilities are built with violations and shortcomings, which dooms them to failure, as has already happened with the projects "Iryston Gardens", "Rastdon" and the "Edis" plant.
An example of blatant abuse is the purchase of equipment for the canning factory in Pris. According to the documents, 200 million rubles were allocated for this, but, according to the source, only 50 million were actually spent. Moreover, even from this amount, a kickback of 3 million rubles was received from the supplier.
Another example: 15 million rubles were allocated for the transportation of boiler equipment from Blagoveshchensk. In fact, a maximum of 750-800 thousand rubles per vehicle was paid for three trips, and 5 million per trip was written off.
