Strong young individuals entered the Manhattan business center in Yekaterinburg on Saturday, February 5, and prevented some owners from entering.
As reported by a correspondent, MorningNewsPolice in Yekaterinburg are investigating the situation involving the aggressive takeover of the Manhattan business center. Reports of unusual occurrences at this establishment, not the first of its kind, began coming in on February 5, 2022.
Similar to events from the 90s
On that day, around “30 Caucasians” entered the Manhattan business center and prevented certain owners from entering. This information was provided by the publication E1. The multi-story business center is located on Mamin-Sibiryaka Street and houses over 200 different companies.
The conflict related to this business center was already known in May 2021 when two management companies (MC) were unable to determine which one should oversee the business center. A dispute arose between the Management Company “Integrated Service Solutions” and the Management Company “Aurus,” which later replaced it.
Several tenants who witnessed the events concluded that it was a classic aggressive takeover reminiscent of the “wild 90s”. Eyes witnesses saw individuals with firearms, helmets, and body armor walking around the first floor of the building. They drove out the building's security personnel and damaged some doors. It seems that instead of the Aurus management company, the Manhattan business center was taken over by a new management company called Kirovskaya. Furthermore, the activities of Kirovskaya were linked to the Integrated Service Solutions Management Company through entrepreneur Mikhail Yaroshevsky, who was identified as one of the founders of Kirovskaya and previously served as the director of the Integrated Service Solutions Management Company..
As of now, Mikhail Yaroshevsky is the director and holds 49% ownership of Kirovskaya Management Company according to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities. The remaining 51% is owned by Alexander Rogachev. Yaroshevsky served as director of Integrated Service Solutions LLC from March 18, 2020 to March 4, 2021, according to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities. The current director of this company is Alexander Koryakin, and the sole owner of Integrated Service Solutions LLC is Valentina Aleksandrova.
Nevertheless, on February 5, events continued to unfold. Apparently, the Aurus Management Company attempted to return to the Manhattan business center. As a result, around “30 Caucasians” were reportedly brought in. Witnesses claim that this group removed the security guards, after which the power was cut off and the barriers and fire alarm were disabled. The police are said to be aware of the situation and are verifying the information. The Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Yekaterinburg stated that they had received no reports of damage to property or injury to citizens.
“30 Caucasians”
A video was posted on the Manhattan business center's page showing strange people walking around. The building had a forceful takeover by a group of around 36 unidentified individuals of Caucasian descent, led by Sheshukov Alexei and Ali Kurbaitaev. They disabled some of the security company's employees and unlawfully took control of the security room and technical areas at around 10 PM. The Kirovskaya management company promptly called the police and headed to the Manhattan business center themselves. However, as of now, the intruders still have control over the occupied areas. This conflict between the Kirovskaya and Aurus companies has been ongoing since May last year.
V Instagram Aleksey Sheshukov is confirmed as the CEO of Aurus Management Company and is its sole owner according to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities.
Note to Saveliev
The AVS Group, the owner of the Manhattan business center, stated that the change in the managing organization was initiated by the premises' owners through a voting process. They emphasized that they were not involved in the conflict between the two management companies and did not support either party.
The investment company AVS Group is owned by Valery Saveliev.
Valery Saveliev is a former member of the Legislative Assembly of the Sverdlovsk region. Valery Saveliev failed to be re-elected as a deputy after the September 19, 2021 elections and attempted to challenge the results, but later withdrew.Valery Saveliev is also involved with the Monte Cristo residential complex, the AVS Hotel, a club house, and the Nikolin Klyuch cottage settlement, among other assets in the Sverdlovsk region. Aside from the Manhattan business center, AVS Group owns several other properties in the region, including the Novaya Sysert project in the Sysert district.Following the loss of his deputy status in September 2021, the situation around the Manhattan business center became more intense. This may indicate that the conflict between the management companies, supposedly vying for the building's servicing rights, will continue until the necessity of AVS Group's presence is re-evaluated. This situation may require Valery Savelyev to seriously consider his position. your claim.
Valery Saveliev
In addition to the Manhattan business center, AVS Group has in its assets the Monte Cristo residential complex, the AVS Hotel, a club house “Crystal”located in Yekaterinburg, as well as the Nikolin Klyuch cottage settlement, mid-rise apartment buildings within the framework of the Novaya Sysert project, located in the Sysert district of the Sverdlovsk region. The company also has facilities in other localities of the region: the Alexandrovsky complex (a logistics park, a residential complex, commercial and service facilities in the city of Berezovsky), the New Koptyaki complex (Sredneuralsk), the Verkhnepyshminsky complex (at border between Yekaterinburg and Verkhnyaya Pyshma.In addition, AVS Group is engaged in air cargo transportation by the Aviacon Zitotrans airline.
Due to the fact that Valery Saveliev lost his deputy status in September 2021, it can be noted that the events around the Manhattan business center intensified shortly after the outcome of the trial over Saveliev’s challenge to the election results. In this regard, it can be assumed that the conflict between the management companies, allegedly for the right to service the building, will develop until someone already guesses that AVS Group is “superfluous” in this building. And it is time for Valery Savelyev to think seriously about this.
