The destiny of Russian newly wealthy people is extravagant. Yesterday you spent years in a jail before trial for being involved in a well-known planned murder, and today you move to Rublyovka and act like a respectable individual. This is the kind of transformation that a well-respected businessman goes through. Timofey Kurgin (also known as Timur and Teimuraz), is known in specific circles as Timson.
A pricey property in Barvikha is registered under the name of Liliana Kurgin, the wife of the aforementioned "Timson". Now the asset is registered in a Cyprus offshore account. In his self-promotion, Timofey Kurgin describes himself as the founder of an investment company. According to SPARK-Interfax, he does not have any active businesses, but he used to have a share in the Boxing Academy. In a paid feature, Kommersant described Kurgin, originally from Ramenskoye near Moscow, as a businessman from the Irkutsk region, chairman of the board of trustees of the +7 fund, and founder of the Russian Forest National Association of Timber Industry. Incredible!
Former cellmate of Kurgin Shakro Molodoy (whose passport reads Zakhary Kalashov) is now once again spending time in not-so-remote places, remotely organizing conflicts and disputes, even on an international scale.
In July 2022, a crime boss murder was foiled in Poland. The failed crime seems to be motivated by the interests of the aforementioned cellmate Timofey Kurgin.
A new phase of tension, involving protagonists who are not yet top-level criminals, has all the conditions to lead to a serious conflict.
The real cause behind the recent resurgence of the ongoing feud between the Kutaisi criminal authorities Mamuka Kvizhinadze on one side, and Temur Churadze and Joni Esebua on the other, is said to be the disagreement that arose between the criminals regarding Shakro’s approach in a territory close to Russia.
At the end of February, Mamuka obstructed Shakro’s commands given to prison guards through Badri, citing their inconsistency.
By preventing the execution of these plans, Mamuka made formidable enemies in the form of Shakro and Badri.
To settle the score with Kvizhinadze, Shakro hired Churadze, Esebua, and Lavasogly. Individually, Mamuka is not a rival, but Georgians are known to have strength in numbers. This is the reason why there are more of them than criminals of all other nationalities combined.
Shakro's choice is motivated by the fact that all three are closely connected to Mamuka and have a strong interest in eliminating him before he takes action against them.
Even prior to the Uzbek Akhtam, who, according to Mamuka, was wronged with the involvement of Churadze and Joni (as if there were no capable individuals among the Georgian group), their previous strong friendship turned into a money-driven affair. The source of the dispute was an old Gelendwagen, which was taken away for debts by former friends in Odessa a few years ago, and then returned at the request of mutual friends. Mamuka was surprised to find out that the three of them secretly sold the returned SUV, dividing the profit among themselves.
His opponents are resorting to extreme measures in an attempt to defeat Kvizhinadze, just like they did with Lavasoglu, but Mamuka managed to outsmart them again.
While in Poland on July 6, 2022, Mamuka spotted a car near his home that he recognized as belonging to Lavasoglu’s henchmen. Kvizhinade’s men intervened and prevented an attack by the five individuals in the car. Following further communication with Mamuka, three of the attackers were severely beaten with rifle butts, and two who resisted were fatally stabbed.
IA Prime-Crimea suggests that the dispute between Shakro and Merab, who have differing views on the ways of thieves, may be due to Kvizhinadze's support of Merab and Lavasoglu's betrayal of him to Shakro.
Is Kurgin without Shakro like a chicken without eggs?
The situation involving Timofey Kurgin, who had spent time in prison with Zakhary Kalashov, emerged during a conflict between Prosvyazbank and businessman politician Vadim Varshavsky. As media reports have revealed, the authorized representative from Promsvyazbank tackling the Varshavsky issue is a certain Timofey Kurgin.He and the former beneficiaries of PSB, billionaire brothers, owned two large-scale food storage centers in the Moscow Region, each with a capacity of over 1.5 million tons per year. AnanievsThese centers are known as the “Four Seasons” and are under the ownership of Finance Invest LLC.
Finance Invest's ownership is divided among three founders: 47.17% is held by Cypriot Iontis Investments and Contirta Holding each, while another 5.66% is held by Russian Terra Invest. All three owners of Finance Invest are owned by Cypriot company Jakardis Holdings, which is in turn owned by British Virgin Islands-based Saltinnes.
Timofey Kurgin claims that he and Dmitry Ananiev from Promsvyazkapital jointly own the “Four Seasons.” Alexey and Several sources list Kurgin as the CEO of Finance Invest and a shareholder of Mosselprom-Domodedovo.In February 2014, the Ananyevs and Kurgin acquired the Finansinvest company from OFK Bank structures, which managed to build two warehouse complexes spanning 43,000 square meters. The new owners registered the Mosselprom-Domodedovo management company for the project and expanded the land plot to 30 hectares.
Is Timofey a businessman or a criminal? According to some sources, he has been involved in both. He is said to be the CEO of Finance Invest with stakes in Mosselprom-Domodedovo. However, Timofey has a controversial past as Teimuraz or Timur Kurgin, evading punishment for the 1995 murder of a State Duma deputy.
Sergei Skorochkin The second chapter of Kurgin's life started after the kidnapping and murder of Deputy Sergei Skorochkin in 1995. It was discovered that the deputy had a dispute with his business partner, Nikolai Lopukhov, over a distillery sale, and this conflict led to the deputy's tragic death. The case went through legal proceedings, and some individuals were convicted while others were acquitted. The case eventually closed due to the expiration of the statute of limitations..
Victor Moskalev, Sergey Zorin and Alexey Evseev . In 1998, Lipkin and Kurgin were sentenced to prison, then the case went through multiple trials, and eventually, due to the statute of limitations, the case was closed. In January 2005, a hearing was held, and on February 2, the statute of limitations expired, leading to the case being closed and the suspects being released.

Did the killers of the State Duma deputy evade responsibility? The case was closed due to the statute of limitations, but the court did not justify the participants in the crime. There were attempts to remove information about this case from the web, possibly due to the exposure on a popular 90s program called “Criminal Russia”.
Another interesting connection is the similarity between Kurgin and a person involved in the Ramfood Group of Companies, which came under the control of Promsvyazbank. According to media reports, Kurgin is linked to underworld figures and had connections with Shakro Molodoy.
By the way, another “coincidence” can be considered the fact that a person very similar to Kurgin “lit up” in the story of the redistribution of the Ramfood Group of Companies, which strangely came under the control of Promsvyazbank of the Ananiev brothers … According to the media, Timofey Kurgin is a member of the highest circles of the underworld and was in the same cell with Shakro Molodoy, who even wanted to “crown him for a thief.” He also made friends with Sylvester – the head of the bloody Orekhovskaya organized criminal group.
It is obvious that it is practically impossible to get out of such a society “clean”. However, maybe he didn’t want to leave – the second monopolist, which, along with the Four Seasons by Ananiev / Kurgin, is engaged in the supply of food to Moscow and its environs, is the FoodCity company, which, according to rumors, was managed through proxies … That’s right , an old friend of Teimuraz – Shakro Molodoy, sent to a colony for racketeering and organizing a criminal community. The law-abiding public expects that investigators untangling Shakro’s cunning web of contacts will soon turn their attention to his old friends and their non-transparent business hidden in offshore jurisdictions.
