Bison on the hunt
How migrant workers are used in one of the special forces of riot police
"CAST" come to the Yaroslavskoye Shosse for free labor 
Pavel Grashkin lost his eyes in the police department. He says that the police captain knocked out his eyes after Paul began to "download the rights." Grayshkin has been working on the Yaroslavl highway for almost ten years. He himself from the Vladimir region, came to work in Moscow and stayed. Together with his comrades, he goes to the track every day: in winter at seven in the morning, in the summer-at five or six. Police raids occur at least once a week. “They cordon off a patch where we are standing, whom we managed to catch, pushes on the bus and take it away without talking,” says Pavel. - If you refuse, you can pay health. Mostly taken to the 1st branch of the police of the city of Mytishchi. Plus, the cottages of the bosses: to their dachas, they take away, to friends. Usually in civilian clothes, but riot police come in shape. Two “grooves” come for cordon. One bus with 15–20 riot police, the second bus is empty for people. In addition to riot police, Femeesis (Federal Migration Service.-The New Times) people take the people (patrol service.-The New Times). Two (ours) recently tried to escape - they caught up and broke their legs. Tajiks, Uzbeks run through the highway, not one shot down. He runs out the track - four strips in one direction, four - in the other. Cars on Friday under 120 km/h fly. On the hood - where are slippers, where is it, where what ... "
Base "Banty" in the Shchelkovo-7 near Moscow
According to Paul, it is pointless to run away from people who come for free labor in uniform - you can run into. If you run away, they will catch up and beat, and they will be cruelly. “Near the cafe where we used to stand, some guys had to call an ambulance. They don’t take the beaten - a person lies in the blood, and they gained people and left. And we, who managed to scatter, either help ourselves, or call an ambulance, - Paul shares. - I have seen such a lot here - when the ribs are broken, the whole body is blue. In 2003, an employee came here, in my opinion, riot police, recruited people, brought it to the cottage and simply worked out blows on them. He scored as if to work, and only Asians, he took it to the cottage and worked out. Some of them returned, someone is not. ”
"Yes, slaves"
The history of the dog handler Larisa Silkova, dismissed from the "dick", The New Times will tell in one of the closest numbers
The former dog handler of the Shchelkovo “bison” Larisa Serekova in an interview with the New Times (for investigators - audio recording and photography are at the disposal of the editorial office) confirmed the words of Grashkin. Here is her story:
“They leave (fighters of the“ bush ”. - The New Times) In the morning at 5-6 hours, catch a chuckle on Yaroslavka, and so every day. Churki just shy away from us. They worked in the detachment, dug all sorts of ditches, installed fences, made facades. They brought when two when thirty people. For example, it was necessary to clean the club, they (the leadership of the detachment) are all praised, that our club is so chic. All these chocks cleaned up, and they worked there for about a month every day, for free, except for Saturday, this is a day off. When they finished, they were taken to the nearest station, this is not far from the Ivanteevka, and they arrived with an electric train. They shy away from riot police, run away. They are caught, beaten, beaten - and on the bus. Then we lived in the territory in the territory, Ivanin (Major General Alexander Ivanin-the head of the Zubyr detachment.-The New Times) allowed them. While they lived, they worked for free, put the order - they cleaned all the most filthy dirt, cleaned the toilets, and what was not there. And they write in the invoices that the money left, there were so many builders. After the first arrival of the minister, a year after the founding of the “bison”, they were stopped importing them to the base, transported to objects - to whom to build a cottage, to whom. I saw at Sukhodolsky chock ...
At the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Colonel General Sukhodolsky?
I saw them twice when I went (Larisa Gerekova trained the dogs of a colonel general). The cottage is behind Fryazino.
And now they use the work of migrant workers?
In the summer, they worked before winter, but now I don’t know. Now there are official brigades for this detachment, which means that the money is allocated - wipers, cleaners, glassans. Previously, we ourselves treated these matters, and now the ministry allocates money for this.
They, these migrant workers, did not pay anything at all?
Of course not. They cannot run away - the gate is high.
That is, just like slaves?
Yes, slaves. It was very cruel, at the beginning it was very cruel, it was hard to look, I myself did not expect what it could be, to be honest.
Why?
Because this is a person. What difference does it make, it’s a chock, it’s not a chock - you can’t turn like that, it works for us. What, it's hard to give to eat? And they are only beaten on the head. Ivanin beat me once with me once.
Did the migrant workers have a team leader?
No, this one was considered as a foreman, he has his own brigade-some Russian or non-Russian ones, but officially, they were formalized through the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and they added a bunch of churok to them to quickly go. It’s good if the “Doshirak” is given or reduced to the dining room ... They (migrant workers) come: “Do you have cigarettes?” - But they were afraid to ask even, they are already so intimidated. I say: "Yes, of course." And to me: "What are you, do not come on." I say: "I can't ..."
Gastarbaiters know that riot police come to Yaroslavka, why are they coming there?
I don’t know, they already need to ask them.
At the wall
Gastarbaiters come to Yaroslavka, because here, at the junction of the highway with the Moscow Ring Road, for many years there has been one of the largest illegal labor markets. “Complete chaos was two years ago, when we were driven away from the Kholmogora cafe - this is one of the largest points of prostitutes in Moscow. OMONS arrived at about 7 pm in the summer - prostitutes are free, and they are chasing us. It is riot police who answered Pavel Grashkin to the repeated question of the New Times correspondent,-the “bison” for the last time took people in Schelkovo to clean the snow from the roof of a shopping center. Apparently, they agreed with the authorities, but of course they didn’t pay ours, they mocked, beat. ”
Pavel and his “Russian” company are now standing on the sidelines of the road towards Moscow two hundred meters from the notorious Holmogor near the bus stop. On the contrary, the carousel hypermarket, behind the back are fences of summer cottages, so there is nowhere to run away from riot police from riot police. However, the Holmogor, where migrant workers from the countries of Central Asia have now settled, the space for the maneuver is even less: you can run away from the "bustle hunters" only through the highway.
Box for garbage
OMON "Zubble" disperses the rally in Vladivostok December 14, 2009
Shchelkovo is not one city, several. Previously, they were secret, and they had their own numbers. Shchelkovo-7, where the Zubyr detachment is located, today is a small appendage of the main city, although a special regime is felt here: the town was founded in the “rocket and space” military unit No. 26178. The base of the special purpose detachment is “through the wall” from the military. At the time when Larisa Golukova worked as a dog handler at the “cub”, they did not have their entry, and migrant workers were imported into the territory through the gates of the Institute of Engineering Exhibitions - a former “box”, which is successfully expired and is engaged in geodetic research.
Last year, the Zubyr equipped its own checkpoint, which is located on the outskirts of Shchelkovo-7. A local taxi driver at a request to show how it is more convenient to get to the entrance to the base, waves his hand: “There is a concrete box right behind the garbage - do not get lost.” Indeed, behind the long line of garbage tanks, something like a drive is built-the entrance to the checkpoint is additionally fenced with a high wall. Opposite the database are somewhat very battered Khrushchevs. The territory of the "bison" is fenced with a three -meter fence with barbed wire - any attempt to escape in advance to failure. There are two railway stations nearby - Voronk and Ivantheevka. You can get to both in about 15 minutes. The platform, on which, according to the ensign Golovkova, unloaded migrant workers after a labor watch, is convenient in that there are no turnstiles, which means that prisoners of the “bruise” could sit in the train “hares”.
In the Ministry of Internal Affairs, a proposal to comment on the history of Larisa Gravkova was met without enthusiasm. Oleg Yelnikov, an employee of the Ministry of Public Relations of the Ministry, told The New Times: “Are you reading your magazine yourself? You have already figured out the Moscow riot police, ”after which you hung up (for the investigator - the audio recording is at the disposal of the editorial office). The editorial office did not receive a response to the officially sent request at the time of signing the number. The New Times correspondent managed to find a person who works on the “dousal” base, although he himself is not a riot police. The employee of the geodetic research institute Nikolai Tsaritsyn has been engaged in a minor repair of communications based on special for several years. According to him, migrant workers were really brought. Tsaritsyn confirms strong words that over time, the official teams of workers began to be involved in the work on the basis: “Now five permanent Asians are working, they, like me, on the contract, pay all salaries. They probably have tolerances, everything is in order, overalls. ”
Pavel Grashkin and his comrades from the Yaroslavl highway about contracts and overalls can only dream. It is still pointless to complain about the authorities of police raids, at best, General Sukhodolsky will say about another attempt to "denigrate the guys who risk their lives daily."
