Along the way, it turned out, and this was confirmed by Rosreestr that the company, which belongs to the plot, illegally seized the land with an area of more than 27,000 square meters. m.
The new investigation of the Fund is connected with the palaces of other prominent united Russias near Moscow: the head of the Presidential Administration Vyacheslav Volodin, Secretary of the General Council of "ER" Sergey Neva, deputy of the Duma Igor Rudensky, the head of the government apparatus of Sergei Prikhodko and the curator of the preparation for the APEC summit in Vladivostok Nikolai Anshapov. They consist in the Pine partnership founded in 2003, which owns plots in the village of Leshkovo, Istra district of the Moscow region. Two years ago, the plots were significantly smaller. According to the Corruption Fund, the president of the Bazis group Nikolai Shustenko bought additional land for United Russia. Navalny notes that in recent years, a number of tenders for the improvement of Moscow in the amount of about 5 billion rubles have won the controls controlled by Shustenko in recent years.

Almost three churches of Christ the Savior will fit in this territory, the area of the house is 1101.3 m², and the cost of the site and house is estimated at 178 million rubles.

The interest in the Pine partnership warmed up attempts to censor information about the investigation of Alexei Navalny. In particular, the “Palace Revision” note, published on the Kommersant website, disappeared without a trace the next day, and the article “Navalny discovered the younger brother of the Lake Cooperative from the MK website, and then reappeared.
The new investigation, as well as the case of the cottage of Yakunin, was supervised by an employee of the Corruption Fund Georgy Alburov. He told RS about how it passed.
- Now this partnership is used to hide property ownership. That is, shares in the sections of large officials are recorded on it. They use this country partnership so as not to declare dozens of hectares of the land that belong to them.
- How many people are there in this partnership?
- In this partnership, four are actually consisted and hiding through it. That is, they live directly on the property that is recorded on partnership. These are Volodin, Neverov, Ruden and former one of the leaders of the Russian special construction of Russia Nikolai Ashlapov.
- Judging by the photographs, the construction continues in some areas, is not completed everywhere?
- Yes, there is an active construction at Neverov, he himself recognized this when we published an investigation a few months ago about his dacha, which was recorded in the mother -in -law, and the land under the cottage, which is also recorded on the mother -in -law. Rudensky is active in active construction, who now earns two million rubles a year, but, nevertheless, demolished the old cottage, because it was small, and is now building a large cottage. We still do not know the square, because it is not registered.
- When you were engaged in the country of Yakunin, you organized several expeditions to the Akulinino village and encountered the guards there. Have you been to this village too?
- In the village of Leshkovo, where the Cooperative “Pine” is located, we traveled three times. The first time they went just to see, swept around the district. There is a serious difference from Akulinino: everything is much more convenient here, you can drive relatively close and literally rest at their fence by car. We devoted the other two trips to make the shooting of these areas from the air. We flew twice on a paraglider with a technique and shot everything well.
- Who has the most luxurious palace?
- The most luxurious palace, of course, is with Volodin. He has a huge pond, a helicopter platform, a tennis court and a beautiful site.
- And when compared with Yakunin - who is better?
- Yakunin, of course, has a better site. Yakunin has in total, including illegally seized Earth, 14 hectares, these guys have about two or three hectares.
- The most interesting character is Sergey Neverov, because he impersonates the worker ...
- Igor Rudensky responded to your publication, said: well, yes, I am a rich person, I can afford. What are the claims to him?
-Firstly, as you see, now there is an active construction on this site, and he cannot afford to do this with an income two million a year. He builds a giant house, even several houses - this is clearly more than a thousand square meters in total. In addition, Ruden, Neverov and Ashlavov live on the ground that an entrepreneur has provided to them, who only over the past couple of years has won tenders for more than 5 billion rubles, and they do not declare these sites. This is also our claim. They did not even try to answer her, because it is obvious that we are dealing with the most ordinary bribe. Of course, we wrote a statement to the Investigative Committee and the Prosecutor's Office and will seek to pursue these people by law.
- There is already an indirect answer, it expressed in the fact that information about your investigation prepared by journalists has disappeared from the Kommersant website. Did this amaze you?
- We were not even struck by the fact of disappearance, but how stupid this act is. Everyone understands, if you publish some material, and then delete it, then it will spread many times more than if it hung on the site. Of course, they acted extremely stupidly, thereby substituting themselves, and helped us spread this information.
- You have created a site dedicated to these dachas. A lot of visits, is there any interest?
- Yes, this is a very popular site. We have about 20 thousand likes on Facebook, about 10 thousand likes on the VKontakte network. This is a very good result for the site. And in just two days, about a quarter of a million people visited him.
- George, you follow the high -ranking Putin. We must think that they are following you. It was constantly monitoring Alexei Navalny, and he said that the car of his wife, who took the children to school, also followed a special car. Do you feel surveillance?
-I did not notice that someone was walking or driving me. It is unlikely that I am of such interest. All the places where we are going to go, we are discussing our plans by phone. If the information is removed from somewhere, then, of course, from the phone.
- On November 11, the period allotted by the Rosreestr to ensure that Yakunin demolished part of his estate, which does not coincide with the cadastre. On November 11, this period has expired. What happened there, follow this business?
- Certainly. We, as promised, went to the place on November 11 to see what was happening there. We flew around the site around the perimeter and shot a fence in detail, which both stood and worth it, photographed ponds, and photographed buildings that stand in the captured territory. Yakunin did nothing at all to eliminate the violations that the Rosreestr discovered. After that, we wrote requests to the prosecutor’s office, wrote a request to Rosreestr, wrote a request to the administration of the Moscow Region and, of course, will ensure that Yakunin demolished the fence, buried the ponds and demolished the buildings that he built on the ground that does not belong to him.
- And what are your requirements regarding the partnership of the “pine”?
- Our requirements regarding Ashlapov, Ruden and Neverov are that criminal proceedings begin to be launched against them. In order for the facts of receiving bribes by the entrepreneur Shustenko to be carefully studied and objectively considered. We achieve that Volodin, Neverov and Ruden to be punished for the non -draft of their property, they do not declare thousands of square meters. We also study the issue of placing fences close to the riverbed. Here, most likely, we will write a statement about the construction in the water protection zone.

Sergey Neverov
- Yes, this is a very interesting story. Neverov and Nevarov’s colleagues in the party position him as a person of labor, a former miner who earned everything himself and an extremely honest, literally holy man. But at the same time, he was embarrassed to declare his cottage, recorded it on his mother -in -law, and only a small area on this territory. A plot enclosed by a fence on which the dacha stands, its pond, and so on, consists of five sites. One of them belongs to the Pine partnership, one belongs to his wife, one belongs to the mother -in -law, one small area belongs to the former owner, and the house that stands on the site belongs to the mother -in -law. Obviously, Neverov could not earn it, but no more smart excuse, except that he sold an apartment in Novokuznetsk and bought a plot and house with this money, he could not come up with. It was very funny. When we published a couple of months ago, he immediately reacted , and, of course, it cheered us.- Igor Rudensky responded to your publication, said: well, yes, I am a rich person, I can afford. What are the claims to him?
