In the report "Archives of Pandora", published by the International Consortium Consorters (ICIJ), was a member of the Federation Council from the Kaliningrad Region Oleg Tkach. Attention was paid to “important stories” (foreign agency according to the Ministry of Justice).
Wed to Yandex.Zen CR on Instagram SR in TelegramInvestigators note that in 2010, weaver and businessman Vladimir Uzun became the protectors of DPK Discretionary Trust (the protector controls the actions of the manager of the Trust). The founders allegedly were the mothers of businessmen, and the beneficiaries were wives and children. Through the offshore DPK Investment Fund on the Kaiman Islands, Trust owned the Envoy Associates Limited and Cyprus Company registered in the British Virgin Islands, which was renamed the Russian publishing house in ProSVESHCHENIYEE. Holdings Limited.
In the archive, to which the journalists of "important stories" gained access, the weaver itself is mentioned only once - when the Trust is established, in 2010, when the persons replacing government office were still allowed to own foreign assets. But the archive also has documents related to Envoy Associates Limited, which are dated to 2017, when the ban was already adopted. In these documents, Oleg Tkach’s wife, Natalya Tkach, is called the beneficiary of Envoy Associates, and it is separately stipulated that she owns the company through the trust, and the senator’s daughter, Olesya, was called the Trustean (perhaps she replaced her father in this position).
The publication notes that Tkach and Uzun bought an “education” from the state in 2011 with the participation of Putin's friend Arkady Rotenberg. Now the publishing house is a monopolist of the educational literature market. In the spring of this year, 25% of the company bought three state structures - VEB, Sberus and the Russian Direct Investment Fund.
Journalists emphasize that according to the law to adult children, Russian statesmen are allowed to engage in business, however, article 2 of Federal Law number 79 "On the ban on certain categories of persons ..." definitely prohibits this to their spouses.
