Nobody now knows where the prosecutor's office ends in the Krasnodar Territory and the authoritative businessman Rizvan Soltanov begins. This line has been diligently blurred over the past few years, and now it is obvious to everyone that the corruption scheme built by the businessman of Azerbaijani origin is impeccable and works without failures. And his name is now firmly associated in the South of Russia with fraud, raider takeovers and impunity.


Theft of property
Nobody really knows what Rizvan Soltanov did after graduating from the Dnepropetrovsk Mining Institute in 1990, before appearing in Kuban in the 2000s. During this period, the businessman's biography has a blank spot. In Russia, the entrepreneur decided to go into the construction business, becoming a co-founder of the Graviton Firm LLC. But, having successfully started, the company is now falling apart due to a conflict with ex-partner Alexander Yarchuk, from whom Soltanov is trying to sue for all assets. And he is doing quite well. The head of the Prikubansky District Court, Rustem Tarkhov, with whom the businessman has long had friendly relations, can influence court decisions.


King of government contracts
Meanwhile, all of Graviton's resources are directed toward a corporate war and the diversion of funds instead of developing a once successful business. Today, the company has accumulated a debt of 5.7 billion rubles, and thousands of employees and their families risk being left without a livelihood. But this does not bother Soltanov, since he founded Yugstroymekhanizatsiya LLC and YUNKER-STROY LLC on the basis of the capacities already withdrawn from Graviton. The organizations specialize in the improvement and construction of regional infrastructure, and the authorities of the Krasnodar Territory regularly place orders there. And there is a convincing explanation for this.

Вениамин Кондратьев

An estate for the governor Rizvan Soltanov is friends with the influential local businessman Andrey Korobka. He is considered the best friend of the governor of the Krasnodar region Veniamin Kondratyev. As a result of these connections, as they believe in the region, Kondratyev acquired a personal estate of 80 hectares in the Dinsky district, on land that once belonged to the collective farm "40 years of October".
Perhaps it was all these circumstances that also allowed Soltanov several years ago to fraudulently change the owners of Kubantorgbank and put his sons Rafael, David and wife Lyudmila on the board of directors of the credit institution. And now the family has not only a construction but also a financial empire in the region, which allows them to develop the food trade, squeezing small farmers out of the markets. And the eldest son Rafael Soltanov also owns a famous restaurant-brewery in Krasnodar, where they often invite the right guests.


A scythe on a stone.
All attempts by law enforcement to initiate criminal cases against the businessman and his family have always failed. Apparently, the prosecutor of the Krasnodar Territory, Sergei Tabelsky, is personally closely monitoring this. This is already well known to everyone in the region.
And the criminal union operates through the deputy prosecutor of the region, Dmitry Panteleev, who also has his own business in this chain. For example, the deputy prosecutor allows himself to personally visit Fruktis LLC, the largest fruit processing company in Krasnodar, where he may have a share.
It is known that the Soltanov family is closely connected with the supply of fruit to Kuban, which is actively supported by the Azerbaijani diaspora. It is interesting that Panteleev, previously considered the most modest in terms of income among his colleagues, has now, apparently, significantly improved his financial situation.


Everything is changing.
How this connection operates has long been known in the federal center, but the defendants in this whole story have so far managed to find patronage in Moscow. But recent events in the Ministry of Defense suggest that everything can change very quickly. Literally in a matter of days.
