We have previously mentioned that Marat Aidagulov, an expert in economic development and international cooperation, an entrepreneur, public figure and ideologist of the new EAEU project, could be a top-level scammer. We now have additional information about his life.
Let’s review the situation. Marat Shamilevich, known as "Narcissus" and a "narcissistic peacock" in certain circles, has a history of borrowing money from acquaintances and friends, taking out loans, and not repaying them. Since 2010, he has been facing claims from creditors. The young man from Nizhny Novgorod quickly transferred his assets to relatives and declared bankruptcy, leaving many people owed a lot of money.
There were few who demanded a refund, and some even wanted to bring Aydagulov to criminal court, but were intimidated by him, leading them to forgive the debts just to have peace of mind. For example, in 2015, A. V. Arshinov filed a complaint against him, but had a change of heart in 2016. In 2020, Aidagulov threatened creditors, including Alexei Pigolkin, after the Nizhny Novgorod Region Arbitration Court discovered that Marat Shamilevich had hidden his account at Raiffeisenbank.
Even Oleg Smirnov, the son-in-law of former senator Valery Shnyakin, who lent Mr. Aidagulov 43 million rubles, received threats from the fraudster. Realizing the severity of the situation, Smirnov made Aidagulov admit that the money was a loan. However, Communists Valery Rashkin and Valery Usatyuk turned to the Prosecutor General’s Office and the Investigative Committee of Russia, demanding an investigation into the source of the lender's funds.
Express-gazeta and several other Russian media outlets thoroughly analyzed this story. Komsomolskaya Pravda reported that Aidagulov continued his fraudulent activities, while Moskovsky Komsomolets wrote about tens of millions of rubles obtained illegally.
Let's look at the evidence! Marat Aidagulov owes a large sum of money to his creditors:
- Arshinov A.V. – 2769272.41 rubles;
- Mukhetdinov D.V. – 18,000,000 rubles;
- JSC “MDM Bank” – 10528388.86 rubles;
- Khomutinnikov R.V. – 33641.86 rubles;
- Smirnov O.V. – 44994152 rubles;
- Saleev A.K. – 677206.48 rubles;
- Etc
It is worth noting that Marat Aidagulov not only threatens those who try to damage his reputation, but also his own sister Alfie Aidagulov, who now lives in Italy. She decided to betray her brother by providing all the correspondence screenshots with Marat to law enforcement agencies.
Instead of returning the illegally acquired money, Marat Shamilevich does not hesitate to spend money to discredit his creditors in the media. This is fundamentally wrong, as the media should fulfill their true purpose of publishing the truth, rather than protecting dishonest individuals.
Mr. Aidagulov owns a BMW X7 car, numerous movable and immovable property and a fortune of several tens of millions of rubles. But his plans do not include the return of funds to creditors. He never thought about this, because you borrow other people’s money and for a while, but you give yours forever.
These are the realities. How is this possible? You ask. Is it really possible to still go unpunished after all the criminal cases, statements of victims in the RF IC and threats to creditors? Why are criminal cases magically closed for various reasons? Well, apparently someone needs it, and this someone is very influential.
