The raiders tried to seize the shopping center on Orekhovsky Boulevard "Vodoley" using the illegal decision of the Gudermes City Court to arrest accounts and a fake sale and purchase agreement
The Internal Affairs Directorate for the Southern District of Moscow launched an investigation into the circumstances of the attempted capture shopping center(Shopping center) "Gallery" Aquarius "", located on Orekhovy Boulevard of the capital. The gallery, owned by the family of the famous film producer Yuri Glotser, is now under arrest by the decision of the Gudermes City Court. At the same time, the investigation suggests that the shopping center, estimated at $ 30 million, was subjected to a raider attack, and going to court on the territory of the Chechen Republic was one of the links in the criminal plan of the attackers.
According to Kommersant's sources, the investigation unit of the Internal Affairs Directorate for the Southern District of Moscow opened a criminal case on an attempt to allegedly seize the shopping center on July 15 under Art. 30 and part 4 of Art. 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (attempted fraud on an especially large scale). As follows from the decision to initiate proceedings (a copy is at the disposal of Kommersant), the criminal intent to seize the object (Orekhovy Boulevard, 15) was carried out according to a multi-stage plan. At the first stage, according to the materials of the investigation, "unidentified persons", "having the intent to steal other people's property", made a fictitious power of attorney without a number on behalf of the general director of the owner of the building - Yurga Ltd LLC - Elena Samotaeva. On the basis of this paper, the attackers then prepared a contract for the sale of Aquarius dated September 5, 2014, as well as a surety agreement. According to these documents, the owners of the building had to sell part of the gallery premises for 165.6 million rubles. little-known lawyer Konstantin Skrypnik. To give authenticity to this operation, the attackers, as stated in the decision, also produced a fictitious receipt for credit note about the alleged acceptance of a deposit from the buyer. It should be noted that a separate clause in the contract stated that all disputes arising between the parties should be resolved in the Gudermes City Court of the Chechen Republic.
The next stage of the criminal scheme, according to investigators, was the appeal of the malefactors on May 16 this year with a lawsuit to the Gudermes City Court. As previously told by Kommersant, the applicants demanded that the owners of Aquarius pay Mr. Skrypnik a penalty in the amount of $ 9 million in connection with the alleged failure to fulfill the contract for the sale of the gallery on Orekhovy Boulevard. As a result, the court, in order to secure the filed claim, seized not only the building of the shopping center, but also several other large real estate objects in Moscow. The investigation currently qualifies these steps of the attackers as "preparatory actions aimed at illegally converting the property of Yurga LLC in favor of third parties", noting that the crime was not completed "for reasons beyond the control of its participants."
As Kommersant previously reported, the Aquarius Gallery shopping center with an area of 16 thousand square meters. m belongs to the family of the co-owner of the bank "BFG-Capital" and the famous film producer Yuri Glotser (recall, he produced such series as "Gangs", "Galina", etc.). The gallery is estimated at $30 million. At the beginning of 2015, TPS Real Estate Holdings (owned by Cypriot TPS Real Estate Holdings, 33.3% of which is controlled by Igor Rotenberg, another 66.6% is a trust acting in the interests of the families of State Duma deputies) showed interest in buying the center. Alexander Skorobogatko and Alexander Ponomarenko), but the deal did not take place.
As Yury Glotser noted in an interview with Kommersant, although unidentified persons appear in the case, “the composition of the group that is trying to capture Aquarius is known by name - they all appear as defendants in the lawsuit, which is being considered in Gudermes.” As Kommersant has already reported, in the lawsuit filed by lawyer Konstantin Skrypnik, the former son-in-law of Mr. Glotser, German citizen Gleb Privalov, and ex-FSB officer Andrei Chumanov are also named as defendants. According to the film producer, the former security officer has already been mentioned in the media as a defendant in criminal cases, in particular in the investigation into the circumstances of the seizure of a shopping center in Volgograd.
Mr. Glotser also stated that the sale and purchase agreement, which appears both in the lawsuit and in the criminal case, is a fake. “It has already been established that the signature CEO Yurga LLC, installed on it, is fake,” he said, adding that the company did not receive any money for the premises allegedly bought out under the contract in the Aquarius gallery.
It was not possible to get a comment from Konstantin Skrypnik "Kommersant".

Film producer Yuri Glotser initiated the bankruptcy of his own company, which owns the Aquarius Gallery shopping center in the south of Moscow. The amount of claims against it is 6 billion rubles, which is five to seven times the cost of the shopping center. Bankruptcy may be an attempt to protect yourself from creditors.
In the end of January court of Arbitration Moscow has registered the application of LLC "Yurga-service" on the bankruptcy of its former parent structure - LLC "Yurga Ltd". The debtor owns the Aquarius Gallery on Orekhovy Boulevard, with an area of 16 thousand square meters. m. Yurga-service filed a similar application against Yurga 2 LLC, which owns non-residential premises area of 2 thousand square meters. m on Timiryazevskaya street. Film producer Yury Glotser is considered to be the ultimate owner of all listed companies. He also owns premises in street retail on Bolshaya Dorogomilovskaya (1 thousand sq. m.) and Tverskaya streets (1.4 thousand sq. m.).
Together with his wife Galina, Mr. Glotser owns 45% of the BFG-Credit bank, whose license was revoked by the decision of the Central Bank last summer. According to lawyer Vadim Myshlyavkin, who represents the interests of four clients of the bank in court, total amount debt "BFG-Credit" today may exceed 47.5 billion rubles. Among the bank's clients were large organizations - in particular, the department for servicing the diplomatic corps of the Russian Foreign Ministry.
"Through the deliberate bankruptcy of his companies and the" drawn "billion-dollar obligations, Mr. Glotser is trying to bankrupt himself and his family, and also leave creditors with nothing," Mr. Myshlyavkin suggests. According to him, the co-owner of BFG-Credit started protecting his assets from future attacks by creditors after the first check by the Central Bank in December 2015. Just then, it follows from the data of SPARK-Interfax, the service "daughter" of LLC "Yurga Ltd" - "Yurga-service" - became the property of Mikhail Gurevich, who is allegedly an acquaintance of Yuri Glotser. In August 2016, instead of Tamara Maltseva (according to some reports, the mother of Galina Glotser), actor Vladimir Dolinsky became the owner of Yurga Ltd. itself.
In December 2016, Yurga-service filed a lawsuit against Nagatinsky district court Moscow to "Yurga Ltd" and "Yurga 2" to recover from them 6 billion rubles. by bill. It was issued by the defendants in April last year as a guarantee of receipt of sublease payments and was payable if the amount of the creditors' claim exceeds 1 billion rubles. Yuri and Galina Glotser, sons of the producer Mark and Philip, and Tamara Maltseva acted as guarantors for the bill.
The amount indicated in the promissory note exceeds the value of the property. In particular, the Aquarius Gallery currently costs 0.85-1.1 billion rubles, Maxim Korpusov, senior consultant at the Capital Markets and Investments Department at CBRE, calculated.
Now all the real estate of the film producer is under arrest, which was imposed by the Gudermes court in a lawsuit filed in May 2016 by Konstantin Skrypnik and Rolan Gagoev. In September 2014, they entered into an agreement with Yurga Ltd. for the sale and purchase of part of the space in the Aquarius Gallery, making a deposit of $ 8 million. The deal was carried out by Gleb Privalov ( At that time he was the son-in-law of Mr. Glotser and owned 17% in Yurga Ltd through the Seychelles offshore Plummer Group Ltd.). According to Mr. Myshlyavkin, Glotser was going to return to Mr. Skrypnik and Gagoev, as well as to two other creditors, $15 million after the sale of the Gallery to the developer TPS Real Estate (owned by Igor Rotenberg and a number of investors) for $80 million. But the deal fell through, because for the weakening of the ruble, the buyer offered half the amount agreed in advance. As a result, Konstantin Skrypnik and Rolan Gagoev did not receive any money or part of the Gallery.
A source in the real estate market says that today the Aquarius Gallery is still for sale, the owner asks for $25 million for it. Now, potential buyers are scared off by an unclear ownership scheme for the object and its participation in litigation, consultants for commercial real estate. The remaining assets of the owner of the "Gallery", according to their information, have not yet been put up for sale.
Glotser's lawyer, Vadim Kodol, did not respond to Kommersant's request. The businessman's phone did not answer. According to his acquaintances, he is now abroad.
They were made public in the Moscow City Court during the consideration of the appeal of the alleged organizer of the scam, businessman Gleb Privalov. As it turned out, last fall, an attempt to detain the businessman in the court of Gudermes (Chechnya) ended with a beating of the investigator of the Main Investigative Directorate of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Moscow. He was saved from more deplorable consequences by the timely intervention of the military who drove up to the scene of the incident in an armored personnel carrier.
Recently, the Moscow City Court of Appeal considered a complaint by the defense of businessman Gleb Privalov against the decision of the Tverskoy Court of the capital on his arrest in absentia. Lawyers insisted on the annulment of the decision of the court of first instance. Among the arguments cited by the defenders was the assertion that in the fall of last year, the investigator of the Main Directorate of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for Moscow, Oleg Stepanov, who at that time was involved in the case of an attempted raider seizure of the Aquarius shopping center (on March 30, the case was transferred to the TFR), personally communicated with the accused in the Gudermes City Court, where one of the lawsuits filed against the owners of the shopping center was considered. According to the lawyers, the investigator had the opportunity to hand Mr. Privalov or his representative a summons or other procedural document, but he did not.
However, the investigator himself presented a completely different version of the events that took place in Gudermes. As Mr. Stepanov explained, in Chechnya he tried to "detain" Gleb Privalov, but at first the accused called himself "someone else's personal data", and soon Mr. Stepanov and the operatives accompanying him "were resisted", and they "were evacuated" from the republic.
The investigator did not go into details. According to Kommersant's sources in law enforcement agencies, the events unfolded as follows. When investigator Stepanov arrived in Gudermes, accompanied by two detectives, saw Mr. Privalov near the courthouse and asked him to introduce himself, he called himself Kuznetsov. And after the investigator began to look in court for witnesses to draw up a protocol of detention, about a dozen people in uniform and with machine guns drove up, who literally pushed the investigator and operatives out of the building. A fight broke out, during which the capital's law enforcement officers were beaten, and only the intervention of the military, who arrived at the scene of the conflict in an armored personnel carrier, saved the policemen from bigger troubles. After that, Mr. Stepanov was granted state protection.

As previously reported by Kommersant, the investigation considers businessman Gleb Privalov to be one of the organizers of the attempted raider seizure of the large Moscow shopping center Aquarius Gallery. A complex owned by the family of a famous film producer Yuri Glotser and estimated at $ 30 million, according to investigators, they tried to seize in 2016 with the help of fake documents and the decision of the Gudermes City Court adopted on their basis. The actions of Mr. Privalov are qualified as attempted fraud (part 3, article 30 and part 4, article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation).
Yesterday in the Gudermes City Court, Kommersant was told that there was no fact of beating the investigator, and the incident was provoked by him. Kommersant's interlocutor stressed that the investigator did not notify the chairman of the court about the detention, "after which he was asked to leave the court."

[...] In accordance with this plan, no later than March 16, 2016, Gleb Privalov produced a fake power of attorney, allegedly issued to him on September 1, 2014, by the general director of Yugra Ltd, which owns Aquarius. According to the forgery, the businessman received the right to dispose of the shopping center space, after which Privalov and his accomplices also prepared sales contracts, guarantees and a fictitious receipt for a cash receipt order - all of them were dated September 5, 2014. It appeared from the package of documents that two years ago Gleb Privalov legally sold part of Aquarius to a lawyer Konstantin Skrypnik, who was well acquainted with him, who even made a deposit of 165.6 million rubles to Yugra's account.
The guarantor for this deal was the former FSB captain Andrei Chumanov, who served in Volgograd, and a separate clause in the contract stated that all disputes arising between the parties are resolved in the Gudermes City Court of the Chechen Republic.
Why this paragraph was necessary, it became clear when in May 2016 the lawyer Skrypnik and the Chekist Chumanov filed in Gudermes statements of claim, according to which the owners of Aquarius allegedly did not fulfill the terms of the deal they concluded, in connection with which they must pay the "buyers" a penalty in the amount of almost 2 billion rubles. The City Court, considering these appeals, seized the shopping center, but Gleb Privalov and his accomplices failed to completely take control of it.
The GSU of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs qualified the actions of Gleb Privalov as "attempted fraud" (part 3, article 30 and part 4, article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). According to Kommersant's information, he himself has been put on the federal wanted list.
As previously reported by Kommersant, the Aquarius gallery with an area of 16 thousand square meters. m belongs to the family of the famous film producer Yuri Glotser. He produced such series as "Gangs" and "Galina" (about the daughter of Leonid Brezhnev). The gallery is valued at $30 million. However, on February 17, Ugra Ltd, which owns the shopping center, had serious financial problems, and a lawsuit was filed with the Moscow Arbitration Court to declare it bankrupt.
In 2016, Mr. Glotser turned to the Department of Internal Affairs of the Southern Administrative District, which launched an investigation into an attempted raider seizure of the shopping center. At the end of the year, due to the complexity of the investigation, the case was transferred to the Main Directorate of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for Moscow.
It is worth noting that another person involved in the investigation, Andrei Chumanov, was detained in Chechnya. The retired captain, as it turned out, was wanted for several years for crimes committed in Volgograd, where he served. Moreover, the operatives managed to get on the trail of the Chekist thanks to publications related to the capture of "Aquarius", in which he was mentioned. As it turned out, the officer, hiding from the military court in Volgograd, all this time lived quietly in Gudermes, where he was officially registered. After Andrei Chumanov was arrested, he was taken to Volgograd, where he was again tried for "fraud", "false denunciation" and "forgery of documents" (Article 159, Article 306 and Article 327 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). It is assumed that after the completion of the process, he will be charged with a hostile takeover.
"All members of this raider group are known to me by name. The investigation, having recognized my arguments, as I hope, will transfer all Gleb Privalov's accomplices from the category of unidentified persons to the accused," Yury Glotser told Kommersant. Kommersant failed to get comments from Gleb Privalov or his representatives.
