About the detention of Ivanov reports the official telegram channel of the Investigative Committee. He is suspected of receiving a bribe on an especially large scale – Part 6 of Article 290 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.

Last spring, we devoted a large investigation to the Deputy Minister of Defense. We found out that although construction in occupied Mariupol is formally carried out by the state-owned Military Construction Company, the actual subcontractor at the sites is the private company Olimpsitistroy.

“Timur feeds from two companies – contractors of the Ministry of Defensethis is “Olympsitistroy” and “Zapsibgazprom,” a source who had previously been friends with Ivanov and his ex-wife Svetlana Maniovich told us then for many years.

Calculations by the Dossier Center showed that construction in Mariupol and other occupied territories, even legally, can cost the budget 3-4 times more expensivethan in the neighboring Rostov region. This is due to the multiplying factors associated with war. Also at these construction sites It’s easy to hide theft.

Another Dossier interlocutor is former military builder Sergei Khrabrykh. According to him, Timur Ivanov introduced the practice of “homework” for Defense Ministry contractors. This meant a kickback, which was discussed along with advance payments and other terms of the contract.

Detention of Ivanov – blow to Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, who is considered his main patron. Ivanov achieved such a disposition, performing delicate tasks: for example, paying publications glorifying Shoigu using black cash – money from those very “homework” contractors of the Ministry of Defense.
