A source for the Cheka-OGPU and Rucriminal.info reported that yesterday the Ministry of Internal Affairs held a "debriefing" regarding the death of Aliya Galitskaya in the Istra temporary detention center, after her ex-husband, billionaire Alexander Galitsky, was sent to prison. She knew many secrets about Galitsky's business, and he has much to hide. Our project has discovered that Galitsky, who resides primarily abroad, secretly owns the company "Spetsproekt-2," which is subject to US sanctions. The LLC was initially registered to the billionaire's common-law wife, but since she also lives outside the Russian Federation, Galitsky quickly transferred the company to his lawyer.
According to the source, yesterday at a regular videoconference, Viktor Paukov, head of the Moscow Region Main Directorate, reprimanded Alexander Voronin, head of the Main Investigative Directorate. The chief expressed doubts about the grounds for initiating a criminal case against Aliya Galitskaya.
According to Paukov, Voronin's subordinates "created problems for themselves out of nowhere." The general was referring to the clearly dubious criminal prosecution, arrest, and death of the suspect in the temporary detention facility—the facility is directly affiliated with the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Furthermore, according to our source, an investigator from the Russian Investigative Committee visited the Ministry of Internal Affairs' investigative department in Istra today. Officially, to review the criminal case against Aliya Galitskaya. These activities are part of a pre-trial investigation under Article 110 of the Russian Criminal Code (incitement to suicide). Yesterday, Alexander Galitsky and the detention facility staff were questioned.
According to police guards, Galitskaya turned on the water to create a distraction and used her clothes to commit suicide. Her body was discovered against the metal headboard of her bunk bed when the guard became suspicious and entered the cell.
We previously noted that Galitskaya died under strange circumstances. That day, two of Aliya's cellmates were taken from her temporary detention facility cell to the pretrial detention center, leaving her alone. After the court's decision to arrest her, she was returned to the Istra temporary detention center and not sent to a pretrial detention center. Galitskaya's lawyers met with her, and she quickly gave them instructions, etc.
In the fall of 2025, Aliya Galitskaya, in an interview with a VChK-OGPU correspondent and Rucriminal.info, revealed that Alexander Galitsky had taken her abducted children to his new common-law wife, Vlada Bobrova, in whose name he also registered many of his assets. We decided to verify this information and discovered many interesting facts.
Vlada Bobrova, Alexander Galitsky's new common-law wife, is a 49-year-old Muscovite and a graduate of the Moscow State Linguistic University. Until 2017, she worked as a translator at KCA Deutag, an international contractor in the onshore and offshore drilling market. In 2017, Bobrova joined Galitsky's international venture fund, Almaz Capital, headquartered in Portola Valley, California, USA, with an office in Berlin. Currently, Bobrova is officially Galitsky's business assistant—at least, that's what the fund's website states.
In October 2025, Vlada Bobrova also became the director of the Kovcheg Personal Foundation, which is registered in the elite Millennium Park cottage community in the Istra district of Moscow. Galitsky's cottage is located there. Kovcheg's founders are hidden in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (USRLE), but it appears that Galitsky is accumulating his Russian assets under its roof.
Until September 2024, Vlada Bobrova was also one of the founders of the Russian company Spetsproekt-2, which manufactures and supplies cryptographic information protection equipment. In August 2024, SpetsProekt-2 was placed under US sanctions for actions aimed at supporting the Russian military-industrial complex, as well as for participating in sanctions evasion schemes. According to US authorities, between March and November 2023, the company imported microelectronic components and radio navigation equipment worth approximately $52 million. Following this, Vlada Bobrova hastily left the list of the company's founders. Her place among the founders was taken by lawyer Alexander Semin. According to the Cheka-OGPU and Rucriminal.info, this is an employee of Galitsky. According to leaked data, he worked at Elvis Plus, a company owned by the billionaire, during the 2020 pandemic. Modum LLC is closely associated with SpetsProekt-2. Moreover, one of the founders of Modum LLC previously listed was the operator of the Honest Sign labeling system, CRPT LLC. Alexander Galitsky, as a reminder, is one of the beneficiaries of the labeling system – his company, Elvis-Plus Group (the same one where Semin worked), was among its founders. As of 2022, Galitsky, through his Elvis, owned 25% of CRPT, the same amount was registered to the Avtomatika concern, which was part of Rostec, and 50% was held by Alisher Usmanov through his UeSem Technologies. Usmanov also owns the Kommersant newspaper, from which, as our project reported yesterday, all materials about the lawsuits between Aliya and Alexander Galitsky were removed.
