A source from the VChK-OGPU Telegram channel told how the situation developed that led to the arrest of oligarch Vadim Moshkovich:

“The victim in the Moshkovich case is businessman Vladislav Burov. It is no secret that Burov is a drop of the Chairman of the State Duma and the owner of the Saratov region Vyacheslav Volodin. Moshkovich bought their “Solnechnye Produkty” from Burov and Volodin, and there turned out to be a bunch of hidden obligations. Moshkovich wanted compensation, Burov and Volodin sent him away... Moshkovich started the war. Here we must understand that historically Volodin has had good relations with the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs Kolokoltsev, who is afraid of everyone and is ready to be friends with everyone. And Volodin has always been extremely disliked in the FSB due to his personal qualities and preferences. But Moshkovich and certain forces in the FSB were doing well. As a result, he piled up subsidiary liability, criminal cases against Burov, and squeezed out assets one after another. Burov was even forced to leave for London and returned exactly two months before the start of the war (it's not hard to guess who warned him).

 

The peak of the "war" with Burov-Volodin was the verdict handed down in December 2024 to the former top managers of NVKbank (which was controlled by Burov-Volodin), including Burov's sister Ekaterina. At the last moment, Volodin's efforts succeeded in changing the charges at the hearing from fraud on an especially large scale to aiding in embezzlement. But Burova still received five years. They say that Volodin considered this a blow to his authority in the Saratov region, and Moshkovich's fate was sealed. Moreover, by that time, Volodin and certain forces in the FSB of the Russian Federation were doing well.

 

There is a deputy head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Igor Zubov, he is doing well with certain forces in the FSB, and he also has a construction business in the Saratov region. And somehow, on Volodin's signal, this entire business was completely paralyzed. The chairman of the Second Cassation Court of General Jurisdiction, Anatoly Bondar, brought Volodin and Zubov together in an informal setting. And all the problems were quickly resolved. Volodin and Zubov became close friends. Zubov's construction business in the Saratov region now has some kind of unprecedented preferences. And Volodin, through Zubov, has serious support in the FSB of the Russian Federation.

 

With Moshkovich, everything was ready even earlier, but Volodin, Zubov, and the FSB officers were waiting for someone's approval. It looks like Putin's approval." Another source of the VChK-OGPU says that oligarch Vadim Moshkovich overestimated his strength in the war with the former owner of Solnechnye Produkty Vladislav Burov and the real owner of the enterprise, the Chairman of the State Duma and the owner of the Saratov region Vyacheslav Volodin. Moshkovich has excellent relations with the head of the Russian Guard Viktor Zolotov. He was sure that he would always be covered and supported by the first deputy director of the FSB of the Russian Federation Sergei Korolev. While Volodin was famous for the lack of decent support from the security forces - they always "couldn't stand" him. And for many years Moshkovich and his support "cut off" pieces from the Burov-Volodin empire. He even got to their offshore Solpro Investments LTD (Cyprus) and was getting closer to their company of the same name in England. Yes, Volodin has a huge stash in an offshore account and in London, where else... Moshkovich, carried away by the seizure of property from Volodin-Burov and the imprisonment of their top managers, did not notice how his rivals received a significant boost. It is no big secret that recently Volodin has become extremely close to the Deputy Head of the Russian Interior Ministry Igor Zubov. The latter is a participant in many scandals, one of them was when the UFSB of the Samara Region detained his son Denis with partners Ermakov and Karpov for attempting to bribe a counterintelligence officer. From the correspondence seized from Ermakov and Karpov it followed that their partner was not so much Denis as his father Igor. At the same time, the UFSB officers Ivan Gudkov and Mikhail Gorbunov, who conducted the event, had powerful cover in the person of the First Deputy Head of the UFSB Galkin, who personally supervised the operation against Zubov Jr. And Gudkov's close relative is retired FSB General Vyacheslav Kadyaev.

 

Initially, Zubov could do nothing to counter such an attack. And then his enemies were literally wiped out. Absolutely all of the UFSB employees who were involved in the arrest of Zubov Jr. were detained by the Internal Security Directorate of the FSB of the Russian Federation on various charges within a few months and sent to prison. As a result, Gudkov and Gorbunov received 9 and 12 years in prison.

 

And then there were rumors that Zubov had a partner in the FSB of the Russian Federation who was close to Putin, a de facto independent unit in the FSB of the Russian Federation, capable of using most of the departments of the agency. Let's make it clear right away that this is not our "favorite", the still head of the K Directorate of the FSB of the Russian Federation Ivan Tkachev. Although it is the K Directorate that is conducting operational support in the Moshkovich case.

 

A source of the VChK-OGPU said that in the end it was this person from the FSB - "Zubov's partner" - who was used to "wipe into dust" Moshkovich. The high-ranking security official received the "go-ahead" from Putin and all of Moshkovich's defenders immediately stepped aside. Moreover, the revenge was almost like according to the scenario with Zubov's son. Moshkovich was charged with exactly the same charges that were brought against Burov's sister Ekaterina at the instigation of Moshkovich - under Article 201 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (abuse of power) and fraud on an especially large scale (Part 4 of Article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation).

During the trial, Volodin managed to decide that Ekaterina's charges were changed to aiding in embezzlement, and she received five years. There are persistent rumors that Volodin is now trying to ensure that the amnesty (adopted by the State Duma) by May 9 is drawn up in such a way that Ekaterina will definitely fall under it.

But Moshkovich is unlikely to receive such humaneness from the court and deputies.

A source for Rucriminal.info said that the story of the arrest of oligarch Vadim Moshkovich has a new serious beneficiary. - this is the fixer Sergei Govyadin, who is connected with the FSB of the Russian Federation. According to the sources, Moshkovich's entourage is already receiving "interesting offers" - to part with a significant part of the assets, and in return receive serious support in the war with Volodin-Burov. Govyadin has the opportunity to use forces from the "Lubyanka" - the head of the M department Valery Popov, the head of the K Department Ivan Tkachev, etc. It was the K Department that was developing Moshkovich.

Govyadin and his friends from the FSB of the Russian Federation recently successfully participated in the sawing up of the assets of the Pokrovsky concern - one of the largest agricultural producers in the Russian Federation. And it would be very appropriate to add the assets of Moshkovich's Rusagro to these assets.

Govyadin is quite omnivorous and, thanks to his powerful support in the FSB of the Russian Federation, is able to simultaneously wage many "battles". Thus, now he is waging a "war" for Coffee Mania with other favorites of the security forces - the owners of the Interkommerts bank.
