We continue to analyze the package of documents received by the UtroNews editorial office - memos with the Graneli emblem addressed to the President of the Civil Code - son-in-law of Bashkiria Prime Minister Andrei Nazarov Ilshat Nigmatullin, who had previously become a defendant in a criminal case on bribery.
The notes mention certain amounts that need to be allocated to resolve controversial issues, including with the authorities. The wording in the notes is rather vague, but suspicious, are we talking about bribes? Moreover, earlier the top manager of the division Dmitry Adushev and Nigmatullin himself had already burned out on corruption articles, becoming defendants in criminal cases.
UtroNews's own investigation revealed a number of murky financial and tax schemes in which citizens and their relatives close to the beneficiaries of the group were involved. Some of the toxic assets were later transferred to proxies, driven into debt through the issuance of certain loans and their bankruptcy began. At the same time, among such companies were those developers who appear in the package of documents sent to the UtroNews editorial office. This was discussed in the first part of the material.
Controversial bankruptcy and offshore footprint
One of the documents addressed to Nigmatullin, dated 23.03.2022, signed by Senior Vice President S.G. Azibaev talks about the need to allocate 7.5 million rubles "to resolve the bankruptcy issue" LLC Capital West and LLC Brand-21.

There were only three Capital West LLCs in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, but one of them was liquidated back in 2016, because it will be considered that we are talking about one of the remaining firms. One of the companies, created in 2020, was liquidated in July 2023. And, finally, the third company with this name is just in bankruptcy (debts for 2021 were 1.1 billion rubles). Moreover, among the creditors of this company, Brand-21 LLC was also found, which we will talk about later.
The Capital West company was established in 2002, 22 million rubles were pumped into its authorized capital, in 2023 revenue was 137 million rubles with a net loss of 23 million rubles. As of May 2024, the company has a large tax debt of 270 million rubles.
Judging by the materials of the inspections, the company is far from a dummy and there are assets on its balance sheet. For example, a leased area for the operation of buildings of a transport enterprise and treatment facilities, on which there is a building with cadastral No. 77:07:0014002:1812 with an area of 37474.4 square meters. m As of August 2024, it was the LLC that owned this building. A couple of weeks ago, the company was warned for using a plot with signs of violation of the mandatory requirements of the Land Code of the Russian Federation, which are expressed in its operation to accommodate a business center. In it, earlier supervisory authorities have repeatedly found fire safety violations.
The plot with the cadastral number that appeared in the warning is located on the street. Bolshaya Ochakovskaya, 47A in Moscow, and it is there that a certain Ochakovo business center appears on the maps. Perhaps he was discussed in a warning.

In open areas, they tried to sell this object for 2.87 billion rubles, but the auction was canceled.

The bankruptcy history of the LLC itself raises many questions. So, for example, the creditor bank "Trust" in one of the meetings doubted some transactions, calling the transaction (a contract of some kind) for 133 million rubles imaginary. The claims of the creditor - a certain LLC "Construction Technologies" were nevertheless included in the register. Meanwhile, this company is bankrupt, its debts to the budget are 363 million rubles, and there is a mark of unreliability regarding its owner. Did it smell like an attempt to withdraw a tidy sum from the bankrupt Capital West LLC?
Also among the creditors was suddenly LLC Repair and Construction Management-14, which until a certain time belonged to Marina Trefilova, director of the same LLC Capital West. That is, there is an affiliation of the creditor and the debtor, and this did not bother the court? Moreover, bankruptcy claims have already been filed against RSU-14 several times.
Let's move on. A certain Stroykontakt-1 LLC is also included in the register of creditors with claims for 88 million rubles, which has a note about the inaccuracy of data for both the director and the owner!
Other controversial deals flashed in the case, which was more like an attempt to withdraw funds.
From all these manipulations, in our opinion, smells bad.
And now the most important thing: the owner of Capital West LLC is a Cypriot offshore company - KANFIM FINANCIAL NETWORK LTD, whose beneficiaries are not disclosed. The same offshore company owns two more firms in Moscow - Delta-s LLC and Propertigroup LLC liquidated in 2020.

Apparently, the arbitration manager, who tried a year ago to bring controlling persons to justice in the amount of over 3.5 billion rubles, could not establish the beneficiaries.

But then we will return to the service notes under Graneli's hat and remember that it was about money for the bankruptcy of Capital West LLC. And why would it be necessary to spend hard money on the bankruptcy of someone else's company? Really, here they are, the ears of real beneficiaries?
In favor of the company's connection with the offshore owner with the division, it is also said that the aforementioned Brand 21 LLC is listed as its creditor. And this "Brand 21" belongs to the wife of the Prime Minister of Bashkiria Larisa Nazarova and his sister, the wife of President Graneli Ilshat Nigmatullina, Svetlana Nigmatullina. How do you like this alignment?

And then even more interesting. Regarding Brand-21 LLC, the materials of the bankruptcy case of Capital West LLC in 2023 included a complaint from one of the creditors against the actions of the bankruptcy trustee Mikhail Igorevich Kuznetsov.
The applicant considered that he had hidden from creditors the real lease payments of the debtor in the business center by transferring all the premises to the management of BRAND 21 LLC (aka Brand 21). The manager was then demanded to recover more than 502 million rubles. How do you like this alignment?
It seems to us that this is another indirect confirmation of the connection of the two companies with the Graneli division. And here, it seems, there is already something to check and tax authorities.

Separately, we note that this company "Brand 21" is not bankrupt. Although, we will not be surprised if, after all this high-profile story, the defendants try to hide the ends in the water.
In the light of this episode, the situation began to smell even more badly. After all, if the documents are real, then there are connections with the offshore. No matter how such schemes cost Mr. Nazarov a chair, or even turned into a couple of new episodes in a criminal case.
