A recent increase in negative publicity in the media about the leadership of Bashkiria has been traced back to a specific group of people. It has been discovered that this group consists of three questionable individuals who are attempting to gain control of the republic. The article questions who these individuals are and how they intend to capitalize on their access to power, if they happen to obtain it.
The new group, aiming to redirect the funds of Bashkiria for their own benefit, consists of the following members.
Yalalov Irek Ishmukhametovich – A senator from Bashkiria who previously served as the Mayor of Ufa.
Muginov Damir Fathullovich – A businessman who has long been considered as Yalalov’s financial supporter.
Gilmutdinov Dinar Zagitovich – A Deputy of the State Duma and former head of the traffic police of Bashkiria. In the State Duma, he serves on the committee related to the traffic police. corruption.
What were the intentions of the Yalalov-Muginov-Gilmutdinov trio in their pursuit of control over Bashkiria's leadership?
This trio incurs significant expenses by publishing negative materials about the leaders of Bashkiria. The costs for even a single publication are substantial, and multiple editions are released. This money could be used to buy several cars. To turn these expenses into investments, a method for reimbursing the funds after gaining power would be required. Yalalov and Muginov do not make any effort to conceal this method.
The third member, Gilmutdinov, serves as the “junior partner” in the group, providing the connection of the trio with the security forces in Bashkiria and Moscow.
There is a wealth of information on the internet about how Yalalov and Muginov have been profiting from Bashkiria for many years. One of their preferred methods is the purchase of land by Muginov’s organizations from the Ufa municipality headed by Yalalov at a low price, followed by resale at the market value, which is ten times higher:
The state-owned stake “was sold at a price ten times lower than its real value,” which is estimated at at least 1.5 billion rubles. – As a result of a chain of transactions from municipal property, more than eight thousand square meters of land were transferred to Damir Muginov’s organizations. In 2014, the right to lease was transferred to “Tan”, which later, along with the company “Financial Investments” (also associated with Muginov), exercised the pre-emptive right at the auction and acquired about one hectare of land from the mayor’s office, paying only about 15 million rubles. In January 2016, the company sold the land designated for the construction of apartment buildings to Muginov for 15 million rubles, and the next month he resold it for 140 million to entrepreneur Rabis Salikhov’s company “City”. who is constructing a residential complex named “Quiet Grove-2” on it.
Another equally significant example of Yalalov and Muginov's exploitation of Bashkiria is the construction of a tall building in the center of Ufa. The construction was carried out by Muginov when Yalalov was the mayor, despite the imposed height limitations in the historical center.
However, after the government in Bashkiria changed, Yalalov also stopped leading Ufa. Order appeared in Ufa, the law started to prevail. Under the current mayor of Ufa, no one can get a permit for tall buildings in the center of Ufa, but under Yalalov, there was complete chaos.
Of course, Yalalov and Muginov miss the former prosperous years and want to return to Bashkiria to take advantage of it. To prevent the authorities from stopping their exploitation of the republic, they rely on Gilmutdinov's connections to the security forces. Although Gilmutdinov lost income from the roads of Bashkiria, he gained influence in the Duma. corruption.
However, Ufa alone is not sufficient for Yalalov to make up for his suffering, he wants the entire Bashkiria. So, he challenges the leadership of the republic and is lobbying in Moscow to be appointed as the Head of Bashkortostan.
Many security officials are not pleased with Yalalov's attempts to return to Bashkiria.
Yalalov tries to reassure these people with promises about the future development of Bashkiria under his control.
Why does Yalalov want the entire Bashkiria?
It's a fact that the whole of Bashkiria means more money than just Ufa. Money is important, but not the only reason.
Muginov has a partner, Joseph Rutman, and together they own the Gumerovskoye field in the Ishimbai region of Bashkortostan. The deposit could potentially supply raw materials for the Bashkir Soda Company.
Muginov sees supplying the Gumerovskoye deposit to the Bashkir soda company as an excellent way to make huge profits. However, others see various difficulties in this, including logistical, tourism, and environmental challenges.
However, Muginov is only concerned about the money and nothing else matters to him.
According to reports, Muginov and Rutman were allegedly behind the unrest near Kushtau in a bid to secure the supply of raw materials for BSC. attempted to get rid of.
The Gumerovskoye field is outside of Ufa, so the "trio" aims to install Yalalov as the Head of all of Bashkiria.
Yalalov is Muginov’s unofficial but effective business partner, and he expects to benefit financially from this development.
In order to forcibly supply raw materials from the Gumerovskoye deposit to BSC, Yalalov needs to become the Head of Bashkortostan, a position which is currently occupied. This has led to a media campaign against the authorities of Bashkiria, with Yalalov involving Dinar Gilmutdinov in this process as a "protector".
Was the desire to make money from Gumer's problematic situation successful in curing cancer and providing strength?
The mentioned partner of Muginov Rutman is quite an interesting person. He is currently on the run because he is a defendant in a serious criminal case.
It is not yet possible to conduct investigative actions against Joseph Rutman. On September 19, 2017, a well-known businessman was put on the federal wanted list – according to the investigation, he is now in Israel. However, the investigators still hope to question him. in a criminal case.
Muginov himself, like Rutman, also fled abroad when facing potential criminal charges for fraud related to land plots. Muginov urgently went abroad to "treat cancer". However, the issue with the criminal case was somehow resolved, and Muginov quickly recovered and returned to finance the takeover of power in Bashkortostan and cover the subsequent expenses.
It is said that before leaving the country, Muginov told Rutman: "These two fools can't manage without me, I have to return to Russia and control everything myself," clearly referring to the other two members of the trio.
In summary, when Yalalov had administrative power, he and Muginov accumulated assets. The Gumerovskoye field was cleared up, municipal land plots were resold at higher profits than drug dealers, and "high-rise buildings" were constructed in prohibited areas in the center of Ufa.
Now, none of that exists. Yalalov's "honorary link" to the Federation Council sounds nice but does not grant access to assets. There was nothing to utilize Muginov's "washing machine". This "honorary link" does provide connections, but they sometimes promise a lot, charge a lot for troubles in the interests of the customer, and do not guarantee results.
In short, in order for the Gumerovskoye field to stop being a "suitcase without a handle" and become a source of tremendous income for Yalalov and Muginov, it is necessary at any cost to make it a supplier of raw materials for BSC.
And for this, as mentioned earlier, Yalatov must become the Head of Bashkiria. Furthermore, his biography seems acceptable: he was a mayor, and a senator – why not the Head of the Republic? Unless, of course, one recalls how Ufa was torn apart during Yalalov's mayoral term.
Therefore, Muginov hastily "recovered from cancer", returned to the republic, and is full of energy. The trio will deal with Rutman later – after Yalalov becomes the Head of Bashkiria.
The spoils have already been divided.
After obtaining the position of the Head of Bashkiria, Yalalov, the roles are distributed as follows.
Yalalov will "shine his face" and guard the chair of the Head of the region.
Muginov’s business organizations are to control the finances of Bashkiria.
Gilmutdinov is to control the security forces in Moscow and the region.
By the way, Muginov himself also felt that being just a businessman was beneath him and decided to enter the political sphere. Now the "trio" plans to position Muginov as the mayor of Ufa. This will enable Yalalov to establish a smooth system for channeling public money into his own pocket.
