He is also a co-founder of the Non-Profit Foundation for Promoting the Conservation of the World Natural Heritage of Mount Belukha "Musk Deer".
The new owners explain the increased security with concerns about the safety of the plant's property.The bankruptcy procedure of Tyumenstalmost (TSM) did not result in a “recovery”, as was promised, but in the dismissal of hundreds of workers - they themselves complained about this to our publication. After the bankruptcy trustee arrived, employees were asked to write letters of resignation according to at will. “They said, don’t expect money, look for a job,” the bridge builders quote their bosses as saying. According to them, voluntarily, without any compensation About 600 people agreed to leave- almost half of the employees working at the Tyumen plant. For those who did not want to resign and filed complaints, security denied access to the territory of the enterprise; even former TSM managers, who must transfer the affairs to the bankruptcy trustee, cannot get inside. Sberbank, the current creditor of the Fonika group (founder of TSM), explains the strengthening of access control measures by the need to preserve documents and valuables of the plant, according to representatives financial organization, they tried to take them out illegally. Details are in the material.
Today, the chief lawyer of Tyumenstalmost contacted the police, prosecutor's office and labor inspectorate. Olesya Fedorova and finance department employee . According to Fedorova, on June 30, when the bankruptcy manager arrived at the plant, employees received notices of termination of their employment contracts.
"They offered to write letters of resignation, many wrote, about 600 people. I refused, after which my access to the enterprise was blocked. Representatives of Rybasova (Elena Rybasova, bankruptcy trustee, approx.) came and said, either I am writing a letter of resignation [for dismissal] of my own free will, or I will be fired for absenteeism. The manager, Alexander Zabarsky, founder of Fonika, is not allowed into the plant. Sergey Polevikov also cannot enter the territory. They tell us that the plant will be sold"- said Fedorova.
An employee of the financial department complained to the police not only about an attempted illegal dismissal and denial of access to the plant, but also about beatings. According to her, she was expelled from the territory of the plant by force. They twisted her arms at the moment when she was preparing papers for Zabarsky, in order to subsequently hand them over to the bankruptcy trustee. Zabarsky himself was escorted out of the enterprise quite rudely too.
Let us note that in May of this year, Sberbank, the owners of TSM, announced a certain investor who would be involved in the rehabilitation of the enterprise:
"In April 2017, the West Siberian Bank of PJSC Sberbank managed to attract an investor who is ready to buy out the assets of the enterprise in bankruptcy proceedings. This will save the team, prevent layoffs and delays in payment wages, as well as ensure the implementation of key orders. Together with the investor, agreements have been reached with customers to conclude new contracts; the readiness of the regional government and the business community to support the plant is also important.”
Judging by the timing, it was specifically about “Expatel”. The April decision of the LLC shareholder indicated that the company would transfer 80% of the value of the rights of claim to Sberbank after the bank’s claims against TSM were included in the register and a bankruptcy trustee was appointed (20% were transferred after the agreement was signed). However, what happens at SCI does not look like recovery, employees say.
The arbitration commission appointed member of the interregional association of arbitration managers "Assistance" Elena Rybasova. It was not possible to get her comment; the reception desk reported that the manager was not at the enterprise and nothing was known about her whereabouts.
In the press center of the West Siberian Bank of Sberbank noted that they had no information about illegal dismissals. The bankruptcy management procedure is strictly regulated and regulated by the current legislation of Russia; if these facts really happened, then law enforcement agencies will establish this, the bank explained.
"In terms of tightening access control measures, this fact is taking place, which is primarily due to the need to preserve the plant’s valuables and documents. Since Wednesday, their removal from the plant has been organized, which is already aggravating the current situation. As far as we know, the bankruptcy trustee has prepared statements to law enforcement agencies based on these facts", the press center reported.
Expatel LLC called the situation at the plant the implementation of a program to restore management. It was developed by Sberbank, and this week it began to be implemented, the press service of Expatel reported. According to a company representative, the agreement with the bank is to save the enterprise, his team, reputation and connections with the business community, as well as to prevent failure to fulfill contractual obligations.
"We constantly draw the attention of the media to the fact that it is necessary to distinguish between the Tyumenstalmost plant and Tyumenstalmost LLC named after the Tyumen Komsomol. They have completely different fates. We are entering the project as part of the bankruptcy procedure of this LLC (a procedure initiated by the main creditor of the enterprise). We plan to restore the management structure of Tyumenstalmost on the basis of a new company. Labor collective plant is transferred to work in this new company ", stated the press service.
"The plant must occupy a leading position in its industry. This is exactly the goal we will set for ourselves as the new owners and managers of Tyumenstalmost. The main value of the Tyumenstalmost plant is its very professional team. Our primary task is to fully preserve the production team of the enterprise", the company said.
A Moscow investor explains the exclusion of some employees from the plant strengthening security measures for the bankruptcy trustee: "This is his responsibility and normal practice within the framework of bankruptcy proceedings. In particular, the access control at the enterprise has been strengthened, as we have justified concerns about the safety of the plant’s property, its documentation and electronic media. Moreover, we have received information about an attempt to illegally enter the territory of the plant, which was undertaken by unauthorized persons this Sunday".
At Sberbank promised to make a joint statement with the new investor after the situation at the plant has stabilized. Then more will be known detailed information about the terms of the deal.
The bankruptcy procedure will last six months. A court hearing to consider the bankruptcy trustee's report and the issue of completing the bankruptcy procedure in relation to the plant is scheduled for December 22.
Let us remind you that Tyumenstalmost named after Tyumen Komsomol specializes in the manufacture of metal structures for railway, road, pedestrian and combined bridges, steel sheet piling panels, as well as building metal structures: trusses, beams, columns. The production facilities, technological, machine tools and crane equipment at the enterprise's disposal allow us to produce up to 47 thousand tons of metal structures per year.
It is believed that in order to become a billionaire and painlessly enter the “Russian Forbes”, you must be a classmate, colleague or member of the dacha cooperative of the current President of Russia, or, alternatively, a member of the family of the first President of Russia or a successful entrepreneur from the Komsomol or the CPSU Central Committee. There are also cases of successful introduction of foreign capital and money from ethnic communities. However, there are exceptions to the rules and on the surface there are “entrepreneurs” who have exposed their capital already in modern Russia, and not even in the “fat years”, but in the later pre- and post-crisis period. Of all the options for the original source of wealth listed above, only one is missing - which is known to everyone, but is in the shadows - its name is the thieves' common fund. And in most cases of sudden wealth, he finds himself in a decisive position.
Now to the point. There is a certain Ukrainian entrepreneur Vitaly Salo. Until the end of the 90s, he was in the wings of the aspiring oligarch Mikhail Zhivilo. In 2000, things didn’t work out for Misha, he wanted to eat a little more than he could bite off, and Zhivilo went on the run in the hope of returning. The case brought against Zhivilo is quite serious - an attempt on the life of the governor of the Kemerovo region. Misha left quickly, so some of his funds remained in the country. With this money, Salo and his partners get the Biysk chemical plant "Polyex" and for some time they even try to manage it. But since 2003 they have begun to actively take them away. The plant is large and the dismantling drags on until 2006, when a conflict arises between Salo’s accomplices. And then a certain Igor Sergeevich Yuzefovich appears on the horizon. He lives in the city of Voronezh, but his roots go back to the sunny Republic of Moldova, where his parent is one of the crime bosses. Recently, when Igor Yuzefovich became chairman of the republic's Olympic Committee, I asked a Moldovan journalist about his fate. After some time, the journalist called me back and said that Yuzefovich is such a shady entrepreneur that it is easier to order him a “shooter” than to resolve issues. Let's leave the specifics of Moldovan business out of the equation and return to Salo and his friends.
In 2007, they moved on to the last phase of the theft of the plant, namely the removal of main assets and the sale of real estate. Here Igor Yuzefovich appeared with a certain amount of money, which was just not enough to pay off the obligations between the parties. Considering family connections, this money was precisely part of the Moldovan thieves’ commonwealth.
Salo transfers to Yuzefovich his “pocket” - the Clearing Settlement House and a significant part of the real estate, and also, with the financial participation of Igor Sergeevich, creates several companies in Moscow, Arkhangelsk and Altai.
In 2007, Svyazstroy 1 came to the attention of Salo and Yuzefovich; at that time it was perhaps the only monopoly manufacturer of optical fiber. For the organization created back in Soviet time They are asking for little, about 30 million dollars. And the concessionaires receive them from the sale of the next portion of the property of the plant in Biysk.
The initial idea with the Voronezh enterprise was to try to sell it at a higher price to the Western owner, and then cheat the company. The Irish company Mercury Technology acts as a possible buyer. But the deal doesn't go through and the plan changes. On the way Yuzefovich meets a certain Albert Avdolyan. Perhaps this entrepreneur of Armenian origin knew Yuzefovich before, but the first information about Avdolyan appeared in the press in 2007, when the company Scartel, founded by him, began introducing the WiMAX network in Russia. Avdolyan and Yuzefovich buy the Expotel company and enter into a contract with Scartel for the laying of fiber optic networks. Let me remind you that Yuzefovich already has a cable production plant.
As soon as Albert Avdolyan became a co-owner of Megafon, the business created with his participation took off
The Expatel company, which builds mobile communication networks, has expanded cooperation with Megafon, become a subcontractor of Rostelecom and is negotiating with MTS.
A source close to Megafon shareholders clarifies: Expatel is one of about seven contractors building antenna mast structures and base stations for Megafon; the contract amount with it for 2013 is about 1 billion rubles.
According to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, Expatel was registered in October 2009. According to data dated February 26, 2010, the company’s founders were Igor Yuzefovich (51%) and Albert Avdolyan (49%). Since April 13, 2012, Yuzefovich remained the sole owner of Expatel. And Avdolyan indirectly owns 3.37% of the shares of Megafon and 7.75% of Scartel, it follows from the Megafon prospectus sent to investors in November 2010 on the eve of the IPO: he accounts for 50% of Telconet, which owns 13.5%. Garsdale holding, created in July 2012, - 50% plus 100 shares of Megafon and 100% of Scartel were transferred to it.
But these two operators are not the only customers of Expatel. Recently, Expatel has been a subcontractor of Infra Engineering for the construction of networks for Rostelecom in a number of regions. Infra itself is one of Rostelecom's major contractors: according to Ogorodnov, it accounts for about 25% of all construction work according to his orders.
This year it was announced that Megafon was buying out Scartel for $11 billion, and the Yota brand was ceasing to exist. Thus, Yuzefovich, with the help of Salo and Avdolyan, turned 30 common funds into 11 billion. Now the question is, who will the Moldovan brothers “kill” for these “grandmas”?
