Bad village

The suicide of the Gazprom top manager Alexander Tulyakov is already the second unnatural death in the highest leadership of the main "arteria of the country" in a short time

The body of 61-year-old Alexander Tulyakov was discovered by his roommate and her ex-husband on the morning of February 25, 2022. The Deputy General Director of the Unified Settlement Center of Gazprom (the company Treasury) for corporate security was found in the garage-appendix to the house. By all signs - it was suicide.

“We arrived at the scene almost simultaneously with the police, which was called by those who discovered the corpse,” said the “new” employee of the Investigative Committee on the Leningrad Region, who wished to remain unknown (the name and surname are in the editorial office). - As for the village of Leninsky, they immediately report to us. Personally, I saw a man in a loop, on the floor of the garage some piece of paper lay.

The forensics were already working when strong guys arrived at three jeeps. They said that they were Gazprom’s security service, cordoned off the territory, and most police officers simply put us up for the fence of the house.

The village of Leninsky, Vyborg district of the Leningrad region is considered an exclusive patrimonial of the Gazprom top management. According to the 47news portal, back in 2010, 40 thousand square meters. meters of coniferous-ozer territory became the property of a certain Mikhail Alekseevich Miller, who at that time turned only 14 years old. Later, several hundred hectares were attached to this territory. In 2019, according to the State Register, in Leninsky, Alexander Dyukov, Yuri Gorokha, Pavel Nikolaev, Sergey Kupriyanov, Mikhail Seredov, Olga Dragomineskaya, Anatoly Marinichev, Alexander Ivannikov had housing. All of them are the namesakes of key figures in Gazprom's structures.

Today, the minimum cost of the house in Leninsky is $ 500 thousand, and we are talking about houses, not summer chalets or “summer houses”, which can be bought “only” for $ 100-150 thousand.

This is the second suicide in Leninsky since the beginning of the year. On January 30 of this year, police and SK employees were already traveling to this village and also for suicide. The body of the 60-year-old Leonid Schulman , the head of the Gazprom Invest transport service, was found in the bathroom of his own house. On the side of the bathtub, employees of the UK found a note. In it, the deceased complained about unbearable pains in a broken leg (at the time of death, Schulman wore the “Ilizarov apparatus”, designed to fet bones). The manager broke his leg in the same village during the New Year holidays.

The content of the note caused investigators in doubt about its authenticity. It is unlikely that Shulman could not afford a high -quality analgesic medicine. But the fact that at the end of 2021 the Gazprom SB conducted an audit in the transport administration of its “daughter” suggested that the true causes of suicide may not be related to pain in a broken leg.

The content of the posthumous note by Tyulyakov was not disclosed. At the same time, Fontanka.ru reported that on the eve of the death of Tulyakov they saw very beaten. Under what circumstances could Gazprom’s top manager get beatings, remains a mystery.

The Investigative Committee for the Leningrad Region does not give any comments on the facts of two suicides. Contacting the representatives of the Gazprom SB, which oversees the investigations of these cases, “new” failed. The ERC and Gazprom Invest also did not report any details. Both companies were advised to contact the press service.

The Central Office of Gazprom said that they did not have any information, that the investigation is being conducted. At the same time, we could not even get photographs of the dead. As one of Gazprom’s press service admitted, they were removed from the sites “in order to prevent the spread of rumors and in order to spare the nerves of relatives and friends of the dead ...”.
