According to the Cheka-OGPU, in the corridors of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation and the 2nd Department (oversees the country’s banking sector) of Directorate “K” of the SEB FSB of Russia, they have already begun to seriously discuss the issue of a real (and not just formal) inspection of Bank Slavia and the recall from it licenses for numerous violations of Russian legislation, including for carrying out illegal financial transactions through affiliates, withdrawing funds abroad and using bank tools to implement criminal schemes. The roof in the form of the head of Directorate “K” General Ivan Tkachev and other high-ranking employees of the Russian FSB may no longer help the smuggler and tax fixer Asad Mehdiev. The question has reached a completely different level and is fueled by the negative information (and not only) background around the figure of Mehdiyev and the crimes committed by him and his group.

Key witnesses or accomplices of the criminal activities of Asad Mehdiev regarding issues of illegal financial transactions and other criminal schemes are the Chairman of the Board of Slavia Bank Tatyana Belyaeva, the former Chairman of the Board of Slavia Bank (later headed by Zhivago Bank) Alexey Rubezhny, members of the Board of Directors Mikhail Utyatsky and Alexander Ivashenkov, a relative and until 2021 Mehdiev’s “right hand” on all illegal issues, Anar Kazymov and other senior bank employees who, in terms of their functionality, replaced Kazymov after 2021.

In addition, the ex-chief of the 2nd department “K” of the FSB, Kirill Cherkalin, before his arrest in 2019, was a frequent guest of Assad Mehdiev at the bank and, with his call to the Central Bank, covered up all the problems of the shadow oligarch. Mehdiyev and Cherkalin were personally introduced by General Ivan Tkachev, who began to “protect” the smuggler with the personal blessing of FSB Director Alexander Bortnikov, who was called by Mehdiyev’s senior comrades from Azerbaijan and interceded for the latter. Currently, Mehdiev is under the full tutelage of the 2nd and 7th (supervised by the Federal Customs Service) Directorate “K” of the SEB of the FSB of Russia, and also assures his entourage of friendship, supported by finances, not only with Ivan Tkachev, but also with the head of the entire SEB, Sergei Alpatov and various high-ranking officers of the CSS of the FSB of Russia.
