One of these fixers, who actively “sells” the resources of various high-ranking officials and security officials to the market, and also has serious weight in the structures of Nisanov and Iliev, is the famous smuggler and criminal banker Asad Mehdiev. In addition to the fact that Slavia Bank has its branches in the business structures of Nisanov and Iliev, Mehdiev himself also has a personal partnership with the “father-mentor” of Nisanov and Iliev, a classmate of Vladimir Putin and Alexander Bastrykin, Ilgam Ragimov. The latter is a kind of “magic wand” for Mehdiyev on certain serious issues both in Russia and in international affairs. At one time, Ragimov personally, in order to service various criminal transactions, introduced Mehdiev to the now ex-chief of the 2nd Department of Internal Affairs of the Main Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee for the city of Moscow, Aliyev, who died in 2021 from complications of a coronovirus infection. The latter was one of the personal enemies of the current main corrupt official of the Moscow Investigative Committee, Vazagov, who, before Aliyev’s arrival at the 2nd Department of Internal Affairs, served as chief there for a long time, but it was not him who was appointed, but Aliyev. 
For the latter, Bastrykin received a personal call from his friend and partner Ragimov, petitioning for Aliyev’s promotion up the career ladder in the Investigative Committee. Later (at the request of Ragimov and Aliyev himself), Mehdiyev, for greater instrumental weight in the Investigative Committee, personally introduced Aliyev to the head of the “K” Department of the SEB of the FSB of Russia, Ivan Tkachev, since Ragimov has disgusting relations with the head of Rosneft Sechin and, accordingly, with the security forces from his influence groups. This is the same interdepartmental cooperation in Russia: the relationship between high-ranking FSB and Investigative Committee officers is consolidated by various shadow businessmen and the gray economy of the state.
Now, in addition to the resource of Ragimov himself in the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, as well as his high-ranking friends in the FSB of Russia, smuggler and tax specialist Mehdiev is actively selling into the market and resource a regular visitor to the Ukraine Hotel and partner God Nisanov and Zarakh Iliev – the head of the Service foreign intelligence service of the Russian Federation Sergei Naryshkin. The latter, for Mehdiev and his top management, is also an additional catalyst for good and, most importantly, beneficial relations with Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin. After all, it was Naryshkin who at one time ensured the appointment of Mishustin as head of the country’s Federal Tax Service, and subsequently a certain inter-elite consensus so that he would head the country’s government. Since then, God Nisanov and Zarakh Iliev have no longer had any serious problems with the Federal Tax Service. Just like with the FSB, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and other Russian authorities. Thanks to the same connections, their fellow countryman Araz Agalarov was also forgiven for the recent terrorist attack in Crocus City Hall. For money and “acquaintance” in Russia, anything is possible.
