Earlier, the defendants in the case of the theft of funds from Promsberbank testified about the role of the now former head of trading of the Russian division of Deutsche Bank, Tim Wiswell, in the illegal transit of money from Russia. According to this testimony, this US citizen, for a monthly remuneration of $100 thousand, carried out transactions through Deutsche Bank with packages of securities and currency, which were part of schemes for withdrawing funds outside the Russian Federation.
According to witness testimony, the shadow owner of Promsberbank, Alexey Kulikov, found a way to bypass DB control – he bought existing financial companies with a history and allowed to work as clients of Deutsche bank. Such companies were Financial Bridge Investment Company and Rye, Man & Gor Securities, whose activities were supervised by Andrei Gorbatov. By the way, Financial Bridge was purchased from Alexander Perepelichny, who later became an informant for Western intelligence services and died under strange circumstances. A special role was assigned to Gorbatov’s assistant Oleg Shevelev, whose duties included the selection of nominal managers of these companies. There is also evidence against the former vice president of Deutsche Bank for stock market operations, Sergei Suverov. Suverov was personally acquainted with Alexei Kulikov, they were on friendly terms.
Financial Bridge and other companies involved in the laundry actively participated in transactions to form packages of securities of Russian issuers for the subsequent execution of sham transactions, the purpose of which was to withdraw funds outside the Russian Federation.
As the telegram channel VChK-OGPU reported, as part of the investigative measures, investigator of the SD of the Ministry of Internal Affairs Oleg Silchenko, together with German Criminal Police officer Lyubov Merker-Obernesser, conducted a joint interrogation in IK-6 of the Federal Penitentiary Service in the Tula Region of the main witness in the episode of money laundering of the former head of the JSC ” Promsberbank” (PSB) by Boris Fomin, who reported in detail all the facts known to him. Immediately after this, a provocation was committed in the colony against Fomin, who is under state protection, with the participation of correctional officers.
The investigation of the investigator of the Investigation Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation Oleg Silchenko (who led the “Magnitsky case”) turned out to be materials from two of the largest money laundering channels at once – through Deutsche Bank and Laundromat. What connects these materials is that the users of these two channels were the owners of the Sudostroitelny Bank, who thus withdrew from Russia both the funds stolen from the bank (at least 36 billion rubles) and the funds of the clients of the bank’s owners. And the main owner of the Sudostroitelny Bank (SB) was Leonid Tyukhtyaev, who was friends and partners with half of Rublyovka. He is also known as the author of children’s books, a man who set world and many Russian records on airships, aerostats and hot air balloons. Tyukhtyaev is now abroad, like most top managers of the Security Service, many of whom are wanted. We are talking about the former president of the bank Andrei Egorov, as well as… O. Chairman of the Board Alexey Parfenov, co-owner of SB Andrey Vovchenko.
Regarding money laundering, Boris Fomin, the former chairman of the board of Promsberbank, testified through the Deutsche Bank at the Sudostroitelny Bank (serving a sentence for embezzling the bank’s money). And the former owner of the European Express Bank, Oleg Kuzmin (serving time as one of the co-organizers of the Laundromat), testified about money laundering by SB through the Laundromat.
