The editors continue to monitor the development of scandals around the Ufa Roskomsnabbank (former sign - Bashkomsnabbank), which belonged to the Bashkir oligarch-deputy  Flyur  Gallyamov  and his family. The Gallyamovsky bank burst in March 2019 as a result of violations of anti-money laundering legislation and the withdrawal of assets (about 20 billion rubles!) through the related financial pyramid “Gold Reserve” and obviously non-repayable loans. The Central Bank announced the identified signs of criminal acts in Roskomsnabbank and promptly transferred the materials to the Prosecutor General’s Office and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which after almost a year (!) did not present absolutely any results of the investigation of the Bashkir Laundromat.

The day before, readers contacted the editorial office with new interesting details. “We read your recent article about how half a billion was stolen from the bank through the empty Integration LLC.” You list those who at different times were on the board of directors of Roskomsnabbank. The “honorable” list includes General Director of BKS-Stroy LLC  Rifat Garipov , Deputy Head of the Bank’s Marketing Department  Igor Yepeikin , Deputy Head of the Bank’s Financial Department  Ira Latypova  (sister of Flyura Galliamova), Rector and Founder of the Eastern Economic-Legal Humanitarian Academy  Evgeniy Minnibaev , Director Alfa-Audit LLC  Venera Riyanova , Deputy General Director for Innovation of Krasny Proletary OJSC  Ruslan Latypov  and Managing Director of Insurance Investments LLC  Bulat Khusnullin . The head of the board of directors of Bashkomsnabbank was, among other things,  Evgeny Minnibaev .

Readers of the “” project recommend that in our investigation we take a closer look at these and other characters who had a hand in the scandalous bank. And start, for example, with the above  Rifat Garipov . “He also comes from the Family - the nephew of Mr. Gallyamov. Just like his uncle, Rifat Ruzilevich has a deputy mandate, sits in the Kurultai of Bashkortostan, together with the same agile uncle, also edros.” Another of our interlocutors expresses the opinion that “Rifat is tearing up his skills as he goes, he has become well versed in legal matters, he was specially trained at the Law Faculty of Moscow State University. He is well versed in similar schemes that were used to attract investors to the “Gold Reserve” and other areas of the family business. Pay attention, you will find a lot...”, advises the reader, confident that this is a very interesting person for law enforcement agencies.

Deputy-nephew Rifat Garipov recently celebrated his 34th birthday. It is noteworthy that the above-mentioned BKS-Stroy LLC (then other companies) was registered in Garipov’s name as a director when he was only 20 years old. Another confirmation of the version that Gallyamov’s relatives were used in an intricate chain of legal entities as dependent “workers”?

Meanwhile, “Uncle Flur” himself is facing hard times and not in the most pleasant places. On the eve of the editorial office, it became known that the state corporation “Deposit Insurance Agency” (DIA), through the state-appointed temporary administration of Roskomsnabbank, filed a claim with the arbitration court of Bashkiria against the former chairman of the board and co-owner of the bank - the same Flyur Fanzavievich Gallyamov. The application was registered in the file of arbitration cases on February 14. On Valentine’s Day, claims were filed against  Irina Gallyamova  (previously owned 50% of Uraltau LLC) and another ex-shareholder of the bank - BCSB Financial Corporation LLC (owned by  Fanur Nurgaliev ). The essence of the claims has not yet been specified in the court materials. Only one of the three applications was accepted for production - to FC BCSB. The court plans to consider it on March 23. The editors of "" will monitor the behind-the-scenes background and study the movement of high-profile cases in the Bashkir arbitration, which is currently chaired by  Igor  Arsenov .

According to experts, the change of the federal government and the redrawing of the Constitution of the Russian Federation now, oddly enough, also negatively affects the desire of the Bashkir elite led by  Radiy Khabirov  to quickly hush up the scandals with the “laundry” of Roskomsnabbank. The transformations announced  by Vladimir Putin  have shaken up many officials, who are now forced to demonstrate at least some efficiency in order to survive. DIA, headed by  Yuri Isaev,  is no exception. Moreover, not so long ago,  Mikhail Mishustin , while still the head of the Federal Tax Service, made official complaints about the financial opacity and wastefulness of the Isaev “diocese”. Mishustin’s promotion to head of the Cabinet promises additional control from above for the DIA.

The Bashkir affiliated “laundering” companies - Roskomsnabbank and Zolotoy Reserve - should become an example that the DIA is doing at least something to hold the beneficiaries of deflated financial structures accountable. Moreover, until today (Mishustin is right!), Yuri Isaev and his subordinates have nothing special to brag about. The DIA recently released a report on its work over the past year. And it seems to have set an anti-record, analysts conclude. Creditors of the Military Industrial Bank were paid 0.42% of their funds, or 160,000 rubles. “All the money was eaten up by the expenses of the DIA and the layer companies and golden lawyers that appeared out of nowhere. In the same VSP, 64% of the bankruptcy estate was spent on them. In five banks, the DIA was unable to return even 5% of accounts payable - Yugra (3.48%), BFG Credit (2.7%), Rosinterbank (3.61%), Finprombank (4.25%) , OFK Bank (4.25%),” noted public sources.

In addition, in order to maintain silence, the Gallyamovites probably have to replenish the “channels of interaction” with law enforcement agencies (it is no coincidence that the Central Bank’s appeals to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Prosecutor General’s Office have so far not led to the initiation of a criminal case on fraud in Roskomsnabbank - “the materials are tightly held back”). The red tape (or inaction) of the security forces is causing more and more indignation among the affected citizens. As the editors of "" clarifies, the other day a petition appeared in the media in defense of the deceived shareholders of the so-called investment company "Golden Reserve" (which the Central Bank officially called a financial pyramid that "vacuumed" money from gullible elderly investors right in the offices of the Gallyamovsk Roskomsnabbank). Citizens turned to law enforcement officers for help with a cry from the heart.

As follows from the text of the petition, the shareholders were mainly clients of Roskomsnabbank, whose license was revoked in March 2019, AiF writes: “Bank employees attracted funds from investors in a “new banking product”, without voicing clear conditions. Citizens entered into investment agreements through third-party organizations. They stopped receiving payments after the bank’s license was revoked. Currently, people have already filed more than 500 lawsuits in the courts, collective appeals to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the prosecutor’s office, but they have been unable to achieve anything.” The department of  Vladimir  Kolokoltsev,  for unknown reasons, avoids initiating a criminal case regarding the withdrawal of multi-billion-dollar assets from the bank, absurdly referring to “civil relations,” although in other situations, even for smaller amounts of damage, police officers often show extraordinary activity. And here they sit with their hands folded? Which of them is personally motivated?

Today, the situation is such that more than 4,400 defrauded investors do not have the opportunity to get their money back, and cannot find the truth in law enforcement agencies,” the petition says. As the publication recalls, Roskomsnabbank’s license was revoked for failure to comply with federal laws, in particular the Federal Law “On combating the legalization (laundering) of proceeds from crime and the financing of terrorism.

At the same time, the Gallyamovites themselves continue to throw in unconvincing PR materials in their defense. The custom texts are based on the thesis that the intervention of law enforcement agencies in unraveling the financial crimes of Roskomsnabbank and Zolotoy Reserve is categorically unacceptable! The slogan is trivial; any scammer who has cheated his victims out of a billion or two will readily join it.
