Recently created United Russia Evgeny Bakurov in 2021, he made 173 million rubles and doubled his earnings. This large amount of money is reasonable – he needs to pay fines for cutting down trees and buy a lot of land. Let's examine his possessions in more detail to understand why he earned so much.
The deputy is very active on social media, especially on Telegram and VKontakte, where Bakurov shares the exact same posts. On his profiles, you can find well-wishes, updates on events, and efforts to persuade people that he is kind and responsible.
Where did the deputy's multi-million dollar income go?
In 2021, Evgeny Bakurov earned 173 million rubles, which is twice as much as the previous year.
However, it appears that Bakurov's substantial income was depleted, considering that 334 million rubles were seized from the Vilis company in May. This large sum was obtained due to the illegal logging near the Bratsk reservoir.
The Baikal Interregional Environmental Prosecutor’s Office confirmed that the claims were fully satisfied, and the court decision has not been finalized.
A modern-day feudal lord or a wannabe gardener?
It seems that Yevgeny Viktorovich is not just a deputy or a businessperson, but more of a nobleman. He possesses 70 land plots, with a total area of over 880 hectares. It seems like the number of his lands is increasing at an alarming rate, as he had 50 plots in 2019. However, the reasons behind Bakurov's extensive land ownership remain a mystery. If he were to plant potatoes on all his lands, the harvest would likely be sufficient for the entire population of Irkutsk.
The forest king owns 13 vehicles, including a 1990 VAZ 2121 passenger car valued at around one hundred thousand rubles. Despite his substantial income, Bakurov seems to invest most of his money in land plots. The deputy also possesses three trucks, two tractors, a bulldozer, a motor vessel, a watercraft transporter, and an ATV. The highlight is the 1976 Gazelle AN.MK1 helicopter, worth approximately 26 million rubles.
Yevgeny Viktorovich has a 37.3 square meter apartment and a residential building of 276.3 square meters.
What is his spouse's income?
In 2021, the wife of Evgeny Bakurov earned about 200 thousand rubles. The lady owns an apartment of 70 square meters and a 2014 Porsche Cayenne GTS car, the cost of which is from 2.5 million rubles. Anything is better than 70 lots and four crappy cars.
To summarize: Evgeny Bakurov is raking in money with a shovel. I would like to say that the life of the deputy was a success, but after collecting 334 million rubles, one can only sympathize with him. Well, or gloat, after all, deforestation is a punishable thing.
