As VChK-OGPU and Rucriminal.info have discovered, the family of "Rublyovka mega-contractor" Yevgeny Lukashov shares books with the family of Valerian Mazaraki, first deputy director of the Moscow state-owned institution "Ritual," which is a trusted confidant of Alexey Dorofeyev, head of the Federal Security Service (FSB) for Moscow and the Moscow Region, and other generals in the special services. As our project has discovered, Lukashov owns TSK Elite Garden LLC, which signed 15 government contracts totaling 5.28 billion rubles over the past year (primarily with the Odintsovo authorities), and previously also concluded contracts with the Moscow Capital Repairs Fund and the Federal State Unitary Enterprise "Enterprise for the Supply of Products of the Presidential Property Management Department of the Russian Federation." Evgeny Lukashov's wife, his full namesake, owned 50% of Familycity, a company with revenues of 2.5 billion rubles. (In addition to her Moscow construction business, she also owns the Totem barbershop in Bryansk.)
Another 50% of Familycity was owned by Elena Karamalieva. She is a fellow countrywoman of the Mazaraki family, a native of Stavropol, and in 2022, she worked on the staff of Genstroy, a company registered to Dmitry Bryksin, a business partner of the Mazaraki family. Specifically, Bryksin and Yegor Mazaraki (son of businessman Lev Mazaraki) were previously the direct founders of the Tishenki hunting grounds in the Smolensk region, and Genstroy received at least five contracts with the state-owned enterprise Ritual worth 9 million rubles. Currently, Tishenki JSC has been transferred to Sosny JSC, whose founders are hidden from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (USRLE), and Bryksin remains the company's CEO. Several other hunting grounds are also registered to Sosny: Diky Liman (Stavropol Krai), Mants (Kalmykia), RUZSKOE ORKH (Moscow Region), and Shervud (Smolensk Region).
As it turns out, Karamalieva worked not only at Bryksin's Genstroy but also at a dozen other companies directly owned by the Mazaraki family. Her phone numbers list her as "Elena, Chief Accountant," "Elena, Accountant of Lev Borisovich," and "Elena, Soho Family." Lev Borisovich is Lev Mazaraki, the younger brother of Ritual's first deputy director, Valerian Mazaraki. Soho Family is the holding company of his son, Yegor (Georgy), and restaurateur Dmitry Braude, which includes restaurants and nightclubs. Following Ivan Golunov's investigation, Yegor Mazaraki's assets were transferred to nominees. Specifically, Igor Nelyubov became the new founder of the companies Jager and Jubi, while Vyacheslav Martynenko, also a native of Stavropol, received Mazaraki's shares in Blacksmith, Klevo, Mercury, and Restogroup.
According to leaked data, Evgenia Lukashova's business partner also interacted with Lev Mazaraki's brother-in-law, Igor Korovka (his sister, Anastasia, is Lev Mazaraki's wife). An accountant for the Soho group is listed as a contact in his credit history. Igor Korovka is currently the chairman of the autonomous non-profit organization "Center for the Improvement and Protection of the Forest Park Territory of the Village of Shulgino," located in Odintsovo, near Barvikha. The founders of this autonomous non-profit organization are hidden in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (USRLE). Lev Mazaraki is known to own a mansion in Shulgino, which is registered to the Russian Federation. Furthermore, Lev Mazaraki and Igor Korovka are members of the Barvikha Cottage Construction Company (PSC), an elite cottage community near the village of Shulgino. The Cheka-OGPU and Rucriminal.info possess a classified list of owners of luxury real estate on Rublyovka, which the Russian authorities have decided to conceal (see video). The Mazaraki family was apparently included on this list because of their close ties to Alexei Dorofeyev, head of the FSB Directorate for Moscow and the Moscow Region, and many other members of the security services.
Lev Mazaraki is developing a construction business – he owns the Stylobate Group of Companies, with a net profit of 3.4 billion rubles by the end of 2024 (350 million in 2025). Stylobate builds luxury real estate in Moscow, such as the Lion Gate complex on Maly Sukharevsky Lane and the RED7 apartments on the Garden Ring. In 2024, Mazaraki transferred the company to the combined closed-end mutual fund My Ways. Lukashova and Karamalieva, as a reminder, also hid behind a closed-end mutual fund at Familycity – the company is now registered to the NEXL fund managed by Proftim LLC. Meanwhile, the Lukashovs appear to have decided during the war to establish a construction business with friendly Belarus: the founder of Elite Garden flew back and forth between Moscow and Minsk several times with a certain 41-year-old Marina Bogdan, a native of the Samara region. She uses the email address of Moscow-based SpetsStroyInzhenering LLC, founded by Belarusian citizen Pavel Bogdan. SpetsStroyInzhenering is as lucky as Elite Garden: its portfolio includes at least 66 government construction contracts, totaling almost half a billion rubles. Pavel Bogdan's clients include the Moscow State Budgetary Institution "Administrator of Moscow Parking Space," the State Budgetary Institution "Moscow Control and Monitoring Center for Real Estate," the Moscow Department of Capital Repairs, the Municipal Enterprise "Moscow Energy Directorate," the State Budgetary Institution "Moscow Roads of the North-Eastern Administrative District," and others.
Earlier, the VChK-OGPU and Rucriminal.info published footage from an expensive party thrown for friends by Varvara Mazaraki, the daughter-in-law of funeral magnate Lev M. Azaraki, a confidant of Alexey Dorofeyev, head of the Federal Security Service (FSB) for Moscow and the Moscow Region, and other generals of the special services. Liza Peskova was among the guests of honor.
Our project also uncovered another interesting connection between Rublyovka's "golden contractor." Maria Makarchuk, a longtime personal assistant for special assignments to Svetlana Radionova, head of Rosprirodnadzor, has been the director of the Odintsovo Park of Culture, Sports, and Recreation (MBUK OPKSIO) since 2016, and also served as an advisor to Andrei Ivanov, head of the Odintsovo District. It was under her leadership that the Lukashov family's TSK Elite Garden LLC received major contracts from MBUK OPKSIO (1.2 billion rubles for 2025).
Makarchuk maintains excellent relations not only with the head of the Odintsovo district but also with local parliamentary representatives, particularly with Odintsovo deputy Mikhail Devyatyarov, a former skier and member of the Russian Olympic team at the Vancouver Olympics, representing United Russia. She also books Devyatyarov's plane tickets using her phone number, just like she does for Radionova.
As we previously reported, Makarchuk was responsible for organizing a reception for a large group of businessmen and officials under Radionova's personal patronage.
