The top manager was arrested under the not very serious article of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation “commercial bribery”. As colleagues write, he is charged with receiving 2 million rubles a month from business partners (and a total of 29 million) for the smooth provision of a loan from a bank for the construction of an elite cottage village near the MillGreek golf club near the regional Vsevolozhsk.
It is interesting that one of these partners is Evgeniy Rafalenok, a former employee of the Leningrad region government, who headed the regional agency for housing mortgage lending (LenoblAIZhK) from July 2016 to May 2022, and before that, he served as the acting head of the Tikhvin district administration for a year. It’s also funny and no secret to anyone that the governor of the Leningrad region, Alexander Drozdenko, is a direct creation of the Kovalchuk clan. 
The Oktyabrsky District Court arrested Igor Andreev for two months; the defense offered bail in the amount of 5 million rubles. According to some information, the initiator of the detention was the bank’s security service. Lawyers were skeptical about the information about the arrest under the article “commercial bribery,” since Andreev had shares with these businessmen.
Some financial market experts do not rule out that since the security service initiated the arrest, it is quite possible that we are talking about pressure on the top manager related to internal bank conflicts. Probably, in this way Andreev was shown the way out, overcoming his resistance. But this is just a hypothesis.
