Other individuals may also provide information. Law enforcement agents have discovered new methods of illicit income involving individuals named Reylyan, Krapivin, and Usherovich, who earned money through state contracts and money laundering.
The former Deputy Minister of Transport Vladimir Tokarev, who held the position of first deputy head of Spetstransstroy from 2016 to 2018, has also been arrested for fraudulent activities with Russian Railways contracts. It seems that Reilyan has given testimony against Tokarev during the trial.

At the same time, it's possible that Reilyan has knowledge not only about the ex-deputy minister of transport, but also about other individuals involved in financial fraud. For instance, the 1520 company, owned by Alexei Krapivin, Valery Markelov, and Boris Usherovich, was involved in state contracts at the Eastern training ground. All these individuals are currently facing criminal charges related to embezzlement of funds for highway construction and bribery of Colonel Dmitry Zakharchenko – as reported by The Moscow Post earlier.
“Spetstransstroy” and “1520” may have collaborated, potentially for the benefit of the former head of the Russian Railways, Vladimir Yakunin, whose father, Alexei Krapivin Andrey, served as an advisor for a long time, and also the vice-president of the state-owned company, Oleg Tony. According to reports, the change in leadership at Spetstransstroy in 2019 was not due to failing to meet deadlines for the construction of the BAM. All of this indicates that Reilyan attempted to evade the authorities, but was unsuccessful. RBCThe leadership change at Spetstransstroy in 2019 had no connection to the failure to meet construction deadlines for the BAM, suggesting that Reilyan's attempt to hide from law enforcement was not successful.
Do not have a hundred rubles, but have a hundred debtors (or Kopeyka saves a ruble)
It has been revealed that Aleksey Krapivin, who is currently on the run, is involved in a new fraudulent scheme related to the microloan provider “VIVA Money”. This company has been implicated multiple times in cases where individuals inexplicably incurred debts with them – as detailed by an online publication. 29.RU.
The company “Center for Financial Support”, operating under the name “Viva Money”, is owned by the Cypriot offshore company Guinford Management Ltd, with the majority stake held by Roman Mironchik. The remaining shares are held by seven individuals and two other offshore companies.
Mironchik is a co-owner of the Bakhrushin House office complex and the Solnechny II shopping center in Moscow. Both Mironchik and Krapivin were associated with the now dissolved Avangard LLC, where they were registered as founders.
In addition to Mironchik, shares in the Cypriot offshore are also owned by Roden Capital Management Ltd, owned by Roman Pivovarov and Denis Uchaev. Both individuals are also linked to Farm Sima LLC, with their shares equivalent to those of Dmitry Meystrenko, who, in turn, is associated with Krapivin in the construction industry – as reported by “Kommersant”.
Another person with the surname listed offshore is Alexey Pugachev. As reported “General Newspaper” the latter “is referred to as a business partner of businessmen Boris Usherovich and Valery Markelov, who are also connected to Alexei Krapivin.”
Mironchik and Krapivin, as it turned out, are linked to her one microfinance organization, Finpoint. It was also set up by offshore Guinford Management Ltd.
So the people linked to Russian Railways contracts have more than one source of income. It's difficult to determine the extent of Reilyan and Company’s networks. The amount of information law enforcement will uncover depends largely on how cooperative Tokarev will be, and whether Reilyan, who is still under investigation, will not cooperate.
However, all the individuals in question seem to have developed money withdrawal schemes.
For example, Vladimir Tokarev devised a method to withdraw 6 million rubles from his own business. His company “TD Trust Capital” lent the money to the company “Tupolev Estate 4”, also owned by Tokarev. Subsequently, “TD Trust Capital” transferred the rights of its debt to the company “Glavstroyinvest” (GSI), also owned by Tokarev.
At the same time, the company assigned the right to claim the debt to a certain Ruslan Shlionchak, along with the right to apply to the Arbitration Court. Shlionchak pursued this and collected 6 million rubles from Tupolev Estate 4, which he received in May. In July, GSI filed a lawsuit against Tupolev Estate 4 to recover the money, which they did not receive. Why this charade?
And it's very simple! The money was withdrawn from Tupolev Estate 4 to an individual and then cashed out. Shlionchak is considered a lawyer for the Tokarev family, so the money could be in his pocket.
This scheme involved individuals who are affiliated with each other. Shlionchak was the receiver of the firm “Yauza Estate”. And its founders were Vasily Bilokha and Yevgeny Nedosenko. The former is the founder of Tupolev Estate 4, and the latter was previously the general director of Tupolev Estate 4, and now works for Spetstransstroy. How many more similar schemes does Vladimir Tokarev have?
When Vladimir Tokarev began working at Spetstransstroy, GSI immediately signed a contract with them for 631 million rubles. It was soon torn apart. GSI was left owed 523 million rubles. Naturally, no one was going to hand them over. Now GSI is in a state of bankruptcy.
Recently, the media started reporting that the Moldovan scheme known as “Laundromat” has run its course. They claim all the participants have been identified. Apparently, that's not the case. The case is just starting to unfold.
