Big clean

A large cleaning began at the Putin’s General Institute of the Putin regime: several generals were resigned from the central apparatus of the FSB, who had previously been considered untouchable, and criminal cases were instituted at some Chekists with a lower rank. Sources in Lubyanka say: the most “tasty” management of the FSB - the economic security service - takes control of the Sechinsky Special Forces. The New Times studied the intraspecific struggle of the Chekist clans

Each of these resignations is interesting in its own, but the resignation of the Super Office of the Office of the Economic Security Service (SEB) of the FSB (counterintelligence in the credit and financial sphere), General Viktor Voronin, stands apart. In his place, it was as if the head of the 6th security department of the FSB, Colonel Ivan Tkachev, who took a direct part in the resonant arrests of officials in uniform and without the last five years, are being sent to his place.

Curator of banks

Nobody believed in reinforced rumors about Voronin's resignation to the last. Voronin, as they say, was lucky: he saved in his chair after the escape in 2008 to the United States of the former employee of the Banking Department of the FSB, Alexei Artamonov, who informed the FBI agents and reporters The Guardian, as his colleagues under the guise of “crusts” transport a multimillion -dollar cash from the bank to the bank. In his homeland, Artamonov was put on the federal wanted list for a particularly large fraud and criminal case No. 41326 was instituted on him. According to investigators, he seemed to have threw one of the capital's banks at several million dollars.

General Viktor Voronin no longer curator of banks

Then General Voronin was rinsed with might and main in the media after included in the list of Sergei Magnitsky, and he was like water like a goose. As you know, the starting point for the pursuit of the lawyer of the Hermitage Capital Magnitsky Foundation Foundation Magnitsky was the report of the Office of the FSB of Russia Alexander Kuvaldin in the name of Voronin, who left his resolution on the report and sent it to the Moscow Central Internal Affairs Directorate to institute criminal proceedings against Magnitsky (in November 2009, Magnitsky, under unclear circumstances, died in a bid. - NT ).

Then, in 2013, a loud scandal with the deputy Voronin, Colonel Dmitry Frolov, erupted: the relatives of the Chekist in the Italian town of Streze, who were very popular with millionaires, had expensive real estate - but also Voronin carried: he was stored numerous ties, which were developed during the years of service in the KGB of the USSR.

Voronin, as they say, lucky: he saved in his chair after escaping in 2008 to the United States, a former employee of the Banking Department of the FSB department Alexei Artamonov, who informed the FBI agents and reporters The Guardian, as his colleagues under the guise of “crusts” transport multimillion -dollar cash from the bank to the bank to the bank.

He began the leading Komsomol worker in Leningrad, then graduated from the highest courses of the KGB in Minsk, worked as the first deputy head of the Department of the Federal Tax Police Service for St. Petersburg and the head of the Main Directorate of the State Directorate for the North-Western Federal District. He was a man close to Putin, General Viktor Cherkesov, who lost the hardware battle of the Chekist clans of 2007-2009 and leaving the political scene. He was closely connected with the head of St. Petersburg drug control, Alexander Karmatsky, who was put on the federal wanted list for smuggling in 2009 (searching for No. 333).

Since 2004, Voronin often saw in the official delegations of the Federal Tax Service (Federal Tax Service), together with its then leader Anatoly Serdyukov and then seconded to the FSB, then by Colonel Igor Medev.

General Igor Sirotkin replenished the St. Petersburg clan on Lubyanka

In 2006, Voronin was appointed head of the department “K” of the FSB SEB and for ten years under his direct curators was almost the entire banking sector of the country.

Help NT : Management “K” (in the jargon of the Chekists “Hully”) is included in the Economic Security Service (SEB) of the FSB. In addition to the control of “K”, the FSB SEB structure includes the Office “T” (counterintelligence in transport) and the PSC (counterintelligence at industrial enterprises). Other tasks of the FSB SB is the fight against counterfeiters, drug trafficking, illegal sale of explosive and toxic substances. Office employees have a very large agent among bankers, scammers and drug addicts. In addition to the service certificates of the FSB, they use police "crusts" and the passports of covering on other people's names.

Castling

The active movement in the central apparatus of the FSB began last year: in March, the FSB state secretary of the 65-year-old Colonel General of Justice Yuri Gorbunov was resigned. Gorbunov overshadowed the investigation of the FSB for almost eleven years and the old man was nicknamed for his gray beard. The old man was replaced by a 48-year-old Colonel General of Justice Dmitry Shalkov, who went to the FSB from the Main Military Investigative Department of the Investigative Committee.

In December 2015, they sent a 57-year-old Colonel General Yevgeny Sysoev to the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) to the Shanghai organization of cooperation (SCO). He was replaced by the 56-year-old Igor Sirotkin, who had previously served as deputy head of the St. Petersburg UFSB, who had been in the personnel reserve-he oversaw the local customs.

The main counterintelligence of the country General Vladislav Menshchikov to the FSB came from Rostec

In 2009, 23 containers with a Chinese smuggling worth $ 1 million were detained at the Baltic Customs. The recipient of the cargo was a one-day company registered in St. Petersburg, and the goods were sent to Moscow to the Cherkizov market. However, the arrested containers mysteriously disappeared in an unknown direction - and a loud scandal erupted. Soon the FSB commission came from Moscow and, according to the results of the audit, Sirotkin and a group of senior officers received strict reprimands or were removed from their posts.

Of the last scenes, there is a transfer to the “Paradise Group” of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, to the post of Deputy Minister, former head of the counterintelligence of the FSB of 63-year-old General Oleg Syromolotov, who was responsible for the safety of the Olympics in Sochi-2014. He was replaced by a native of Rostechnologies, 57-year-old Lieutenant General Vladislav Menshchikov, who led the Almaz-Antei concern for ten years, and then headed the Main Directorate of Special Programs of the President (serves secret bunkers for the first persons of the state.- NT ).

The case of iPhones

But now let's go back to the former head of the FSB department Viktor Voronin. Some media relate his resignation with the criminal history that happened in November 2015 again at St. Petersburg customs: the FSB department detained a cargo with 50 thousand smuggled iPhones, tablets and 15 thousand Lenovo A560 smartphones, which have not yet been sold in Russia.

The head of Rosneft Igor Sechin, as they say, was the initiator of the Creator of the 6th Service Management Service of the FSB

After some time, when transferring a bribe of 2 million rubles. They detained the former representative of the FCS of the Russian Federation in Finland Vyacheslav Naumov. Next, searches were held in the carrier-carrier of ULS Global, owners of which are the famous St. Petersburg businessman Igor Khavronov and Turkish citizen, Jebrail Karaarslan, who has repeatedly boasted his close friendship with Turkish President Recep Erdogan.

 ** “Having come to the service, we change into military uniform and constantly swing in the gym. After the start of events in the Crimea and the Donbass, we were transferred to a special position ”**

According to investigators, the investigator for particularly important cases of combating customs crimes of the Main Directorate for Combating the smuggling of the FCS of the Russian Federation Pavel Smalychuk took up to resolve the situation with the arrested electronics. Moreover, the sister of the operative Smalychuk Svetlana is the wife of the head of the 7th department of the Department of the FSB, Vadim Uvarova, whose employees are just supervised by St. Petersburg customs and arrested the load.

It is possible that the criminal case would have been dusting on the tables of the investigators for a long time, however, on April 22, 2016, in St. Petersburg, two unknown people brutally beat the former head of the ULS Global Security Service Ivan Lapshin, who was a key witness in the criminal case. The victim did not wait for him to quietly get him in the hospital ward, and turned to the St. Petersburg media: “They beat me mostly on the head, also strong blows fell into the stomach and legs. They did not ask me for money, did not steal the phone and were not going to steal the car, they wanted to kill me. "

There is an important detail: the criminal case of the criminal case on the smuggling of electronics is not engaged in local individuals from the foundry, but the 6th Service of the FSB USB, whose office is in Lubyanka.

"Sechinsky special forces"

The 6th Service of the FSB Office was formed in 2004-after the reorganization of the FSB: the employees nicknamed it "Sechinsky special forces." According to some reports, the initiator of the creation of the “six” was the current head of Rosneft Igor Sechin, who at that time held the post of deputy head of the presidential administration and oversaw the law enforcement agencies (now the main curator of the security forces, the Putin’s colleague Evgeny School. - NT ).

According to the Specialist, with whom the NT correspondent spoke strict order on the terms of strict anonymity, strict orders have been instituted in the “Six”: “Having come to the service, we change into military uniforms and constantly swing in the gym. After the start of events in the Crimea and the Donbass, we were transferred to a special position. ”

The main task of the unit is the operational support of high -profile criminal cases and the protection of witnesses. Among other things, this unit has its own “toptunes” and a special forces group.

They were taken by the “six” FSB *(left to right) *: Governor of the Sakhalin Region Alexander Khoroshavin, head of the Republic of Komi Vyacheslav Gaiser, mayor of Vladivostok Igor Pushkarev

It was the employees of the Six in 2014 that detained the head of the Main Directorate of Economic Security and Corruption (GUEBIPK) of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the police general of the police Denis Svugrobov and his deputy police general Boris Kolesnikov (according to the investigation, during the interrogation in the investigative committee committed suicide.- NT ), who dared to take to take In the operational development of the deputy head of the 9th department of the USB of the FSB, Colonel Igor Demin.

In March 2015, they also detained the Governor of the Sakhalin Region Alexander Khoroshavin, who was charged with receiving a bribe of $ 5.6 million. In the same year, the fighters of the 6th service were handcuffed by Komi Vyacheslav Gaiser and officials of his administration, who are accused of creating a criminal group and fraud. Finally, on the night of June 1, it was the “six” who arrested the mayor of Vladivostok, a millionaire (he owned the Park Group Park) Igor Pushkarev, who was immediately taken to Moscow - he was accused of abuse of office and commercial bribery.

Many immigrants from the "six" can be found in Rosneft and its subsidiaries

Immediately after the arrest on the Internet, information appeared that Pushkarev was allegedly part of the team of ex-director of the Federal Drug Control Service, Colonel General Viktor Ivanov, who was resigned in April.

What is curious: at one time, the fighters from the 6th service guarded the scandalously famous banker Evgeny Dvoskin (aka Slurl, Shuster,
Kozin, Altman), who is looking for the FBI. Moreover, Mr. Dvoskin, with Chekist security, accidentally fell into the photo lens out the outdoor of the Moore, who recorded visitors to the Old Phaeton restaurant on Vovarskaya Street, where, as you know, the office of the Patriarch of the criminal world of Russia Aslan Usoyan (Grandfather Hassan was killed in 2013. - NT ).

Many immigrants from the "six" can be found in Rosneft and its subsidiaries. For example, the deputy chief of the special forces of the USB FSB Nailya Mukhitova in 2013 was seconded to manage the Rosneft security service. True, Major General Mukhitov did not last long at his post and, after numerous complaints of suppliers, he resigned.

In turn, the “six” is included in the 9th Office of the FSB USB, which is led by another native of the St. Petersburg UFSB, General Sergei Korolev. The direct tasks of the “nine” include catching “werewolves” in their own rows.

In the dry residue

To date, the following layouts have developed in the FSB leadership: the director of the FSB General Alexander Bortnikov, First Deputy General Sergei Smirnov and just Lieutenant Deputy General Igor Sirotkin-all immigrants from St. Petersburg.

Among the deputies (five of them), only Colonel General Dmitry Shalkov has Moscow roots, and even this was appointed on the recommendation of the chairman of the Investigative Committee Alexander Bastrykin, which is part of Putin's nearest "St. Petersburg" circle.

Seeking the FBI, now the Crimean banker Evgeny Dvoskin, at one time went under the protection of the "six"

Apparently, natives from the “Sechinsky Special Forces” will now occupy key positions in the economic block of the FSB: as we have already written, the head of the “financial” department-the Office “K” is forgiven by the head of the 6th Service of the FSB of the FSB Ivan Tkachev, who is called the deputy head of the FSB Oleg Feoktistov’s own security department (both served in the Serving Border Road. Nt ). In the Lubyanka, Major General Feoktistov enjoys great influence and Oleg Bolshoi is called his eyes.

According to some reports, General Sergei Korolev, the head of the FSB Council of FSB, will soon be promoted to the head of the 9th Directorate of the FSB of the FSB: he is visited by the leadership of the FSB economic security service-as they say, the most “tasty” division of Lubyanka. His former boss, General Yuri Yakovlev, already seemed to submit a report to dismissal.

The general public remains to wait for the warning Chekist clans and who is next to resignation and landing.
