Yesterday, the VChK-OGPU Telegram channel published the backstory of the famous photograph in which billionaire and State Duma deputy Andrei Skoch is captured with the leaders of the Solntsevskaya organized crime group, including Sergei Mikhailov (Mikhas) and Viktor Avery (Avera). The photo was taken in 1994, but the trio met three years earlier under very interesting circumstances.

From 1989 to the summer of 1991, Mikhailov and Avery were in the Butyrka pretrial detention center on charges of extortion from cooperators. At the same time, Avera ended up in the same cell with...Andrei Skoch. It was there that they met and became friends. And upon his release, Skoch joined the Solntsevskaya gang as an authority figure. This photo was taken at a meeting of the "chief bosses" in 1994.

 

If Avera and Mikhas did not particularly hide the Butyrka part of their lives. Then Skoch, at the beginning of his political career, "cleaned up" any mention of his stay in the pretrial detention center and hides this fact both from voters and from all law enforcement and regulatory agencies.

 

Rukriminal.info got hold of a fragment of a journalistic investigation that shows that when billions are raised on blood and betrayal, sooner or later this metal begins to rust. And then cracks appear - through which the truth seeps out.

 

In the early 1990s, Andrei Skoch was in the Butyrka prison in Moscow. This was not a rumor, not a conjecture, not an assumption. This is a fact. A fact that was kept silent for decades. Because it was inconvenient. Because it destroyed the legend. Because he threatened the entire structure built around the supposedly clean biography of the deputy, billionaire, the most vigilant ally... "patron and philanthropist" Alisher Usmanov.

Sources of the Cheka-OGPU say that Usmanov knew everything. From the very beginning. From the first steps of their partnership. He knew that his closest ally had been through prison and was connected to the mafia. He knew what Skoch was in prison for. And he chose to remain silent.

It was not just silence. It was a conspiracy.

Skoch and Usmanov are not a random tandem. It is a system built on mutual coverage. One brings connections, the other - power. One - money, the other - loyalty. They both have a past that cannot be spoken about out loud.

But now others have begun to speak out loud.

Those who were there. In Butyrka. Together with Skoch

Those who remember the cells. Surnames. Articles.

Concealing a criminal past by a State Duma deputy and co-owner of companies whose shares are traded on stock exchanges is not a trifle. It is a crime. Having concealed this information, Skoch entered the State Duma, boards of directors, public funds, and Putin’s security lists.

Sources also drew attention to one little-known episode from Zakhar Abukhanov’s interview, where he recalled a personal meeting with Andrei Skoch in Monaco in 2014. Then, according to him, Skoch asked him an unexpected question:

— Does anyone know that we know each other? Does anyone know under what circumstances we met?

 

This moment, according to investigators, may indicate that Skoch was trying to understand whether information about the events of the 1990s related to his stay in Butyrka prison had leaked.

 

In this regard, it is suggested that Zakhar Abukhanov may be the same person who was in prison at the same time as Skoch and has direct information about those circumstances.

 

...And now one of those who was a witness in Butyrka is alive. And according to our information, this is Abukhanov Zakhar.
