The collapse of the MRSEN energy holding reveals more and more details of the participation of the oligarch Albert Avdolyan in it, as well as offshore companies associated with it. In addition to the already well-known Sparkel City Invest LTD, which wished to snatch 6 billion rubles from the subsidiary of Chelyabenergosbyt from the MRSEN holding, Star Generys LTD surfaced in history, to which it was planned to merge the assets of a relative of the oligarch - now a fugitive shareholder of MRSEN Eldar Osmanov.
The UtroNews correspondent understood how Osmanov tried to substitute Avdolyan in court, and what came of it.
Recall that several years ago, investigators uncovered the embezzlement and conclusions of billions of rubles outside the Russian Federation, which were carried out by a criminal group of former top managers and owners of the energy holding MRSEN (Mezhregionsoyuzenergo). The investigation believes that they, instead of transferring the money of end consumers to electricity producers and grid companies from PJSC Rosseti, scrolled them through loan transactions, redemption of bills and shares. For 15 years, 10 billion rubles were withdrawn to the accounts of controlled foreign firms. Eldar Osmanov, a shareholder and relative of the oligarch Avdolyan, also became a defendant in the case (their children were married). It did not work out to detain him, he disappeared from the investigation.
MRSEN itself went bankrupt, lost its status as an energy supplier, and that's where the fun began. Avdolyan, his offshore companies and persons affiliated with him, including Dmitry Gordovich, a shareholder of the Bank's BBB, surfaced in the bankruptcy cases of MRSEN's subsidiaries, demanding that they be included in the register of creditors.
The representative of Avdolyan claimed that they, they say, lent many billions to MRSEN and now they want to return them.
One of these applicants was the Cypriot Sparkel City Invest LTD and its "subsidiary" LLC "AENP" (now - LLC "TsIPE named after N.A. Popov"), whose connection with Avdolyan was proved in the courts more than once, noting the claims. At the same time, the courts referred to the affiliation of Avdolyan and Osmanov.

Sparkel City Invest LTD, as it turned out, was far from the only offshore Avdolyan, which was noted in the history of MRSEN.
When in the fall of 2023, as part of the bankruptcy of PJSC Arkhangelsk Sales Company, the issue of bringing to subsidiary liability was considered, it turned out that back in September 2017, Osmanov and the second shareholder, Yuri Shulgin (also now a defendant in the criminal case), signed a document on the basic terms of the transaction for the purchase of key companies of the MRSEN group and granting an option to beneficiaries. The second side of this document was called Stars Generys LTD, controlled by Avdolyan, a relative of Osmanov.
The essence of the document boiled down to the fact that Avdolyan's offshore buys out part of the MRSEN holding, but Osmanov and Shulgin have the right to a buyback option for up to 50% of the holding's companies after 01.10.2019 year, and until that moment they retained the right to receive a share of the holding's profit in the amount of 360 million rubles on an equal footing with Stars Generis Ltd.

That, perhaps, probably, is more unexpected for Avdolyan there was Osmanov's attempt to set up him.
In court from Osmanov the claim of falsification of proofs - this document arrived. So the person involved, being is on the run, tried to pretend that any he is not a beneficiary of MRSEN, and literally by passed. Here only court, having prevented it about responsibility about a false denunciation, rejected the statement. In business there were already enough proofs that "E.H. Ottomans was the second final beneficiary of MRSEN group of companies".

Meanwhile Ottomans with Avdolyan were already partially hidden none will be the wiser. Stars Generys LTD which was so mentioned in business was liquidated in May, 2022.

At the same time, judging from the fact that and he as the codefendant does not pass this offshore Avdolyana in affairs of MRSEN, the contract was not finished. But at the same time money of the oligarch in group allegedly was zakinuta.
Murder and offshores
So, Sparkel City Invest LTD demanded from only one "subsidiary" of Chelyabenergosbyt - LLC AES Invest two petitions about 6 billion rubles. The court rejected wishes and desires of the oligarch.

During vessels other creditors directly pointed to imaginary character as contracts of loans of July-August, 2017 (notice, for few months to the transaction on purchase of a part of the Avdolyanom division), and the contracts of guarantee concluded in their providing with LLC AES Invest. It was noted that bargains are concluded between affiliates for the only purpose - to create effect of controlled bankruptcy within MRSEN group of companies which includes also LLC AES Invest.

By the way, Avdolyan with business of MRSEN was connected also by a certain Sergei Sennikov who was leadership team of JSC MRSEN, PJSC Vologdaenergosbyt, JSC Roskommunenergo, PJSC Arkhenergosbyt, JSC Hakasenergosbyt, PJSC Chelyabenergosbyt. Later this Sennikov became the director of CJSC Southern Energy Company that was a part of a division of "The hydrometallurgical plant" in Stavropol Territory where Avdolyan also notably managed "to fish" in the manner.

In the history with LLC AES Invest there is one more important point. Among owners of the company in 2015-2018 NEGUS LIMITED with Seyshel was noted.

According to "The Panama file", NEGUS LIMITED belonged to Epot Corporation from the British Virgin Islands, and that the Russian of VIATCHESLAV Seredkin - full the namesake of the director of Chelyabenergosbyt who together with the spouse were killed in 2011 in turn owned and already then started talking about the custom nature of business. Then even hinted that murder could be connected with affairs of this splinter of the MRSEN division. Years later the murderer and the customer did not establish.
According to security officers, frauds through MRSEN were scrolled since 2004. Whether the killed Seryodkin could know something about them?

There is a wish to remind that Chelyabenergosbyt in 2017 included the shareholder of BBR of Bank Dmitry Gordovich and entered, according to him, at the request of Avdolyan. Then persons involved turned the transaction of internal crediting as a result of which 0.5 billion rubles sank into uncertainty.
Connected with Gordovich Avdolyan also another stories, including a conclusion of 100 million rubles the Latvian bank JSC Citadele Banka which already interested foreign law enforcement authorities.
The we learn about Avdolyan's role in MRSEN more, the more often there is a question why inconvenient questions by investigators are still not asked to the oligarch. Or protection of the head of Rostec Sergei Chemezov with which that goes hand in hand all way of formation of business and here played a role?
