As the Cheka-OGPU learned, hearings began in the Presnensky Court of Moscow against one of the shareholders of the Russian Land Bank (RZB), Beslan Bulguchev. According to investigators, Bulguchev is one of the participants in the largest laundering channel Laundromat. It was he who at one time invited Igor Putin, Vladimir Putin’s cousin, to the RZB.

Bulguchev is accused under Articles of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation 193.1 (committing currency transactions to transfer funds to the accounts of non-residents using forged documents) and 210 (organizing a criminal community).

The Russian Land Bank (RZB) became an active participant in the largest channel for money laundering from Russia in the summer of 2013. It was during this period that Igor Putin, Vladimir Putin’s cousin, was a member of the board of directors of RZB. According to the materials of the Laundromat case, the main shareholders of RZB, Alexander Grigoriev and Beslan Bulguchev, on June 30, 2013, attracted their bank to the Laundromat mega-laundry. In June 2012, these same shareholders took part in inviting Igor Putin to the bank, where he worked until November 2013. That is, when “dirty” billions were flowing through RZB, Igor Putin was working at the bank. His name appears in the testimony of witnesses, but he was not questioned in the case.
