Dmitry Astafyev, arrested on suspicion of embezzlement, could act with the full connivance of the authorities of the Leningrad region.
In Moscow, the owner of the Lenspetsstroy Group (LSS) and Lenoblstroy Dmitry Astafyev is arrested – one of the most odious developers of St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region. He is accused of embezzlement of 220 million rubles of funds of citizens investing in the construction of the Leningrad Perspective residential complex in Murino.
But Dmitry Astafyev built not only this LCD, many other scandals and trials are associated with him. The developer was considered close to the regional authorities, for a long time worked as an assistant to the former Senator of the Federation Council, and now the authoritative deputy of the Legislative Assembly of the Leningrad region Vadim Zhestov, and his business received the greatest success under the former “construction” of the regional government, now under investigation of Mikhail Moskvin.
Details – in the material of the correspondent The Moscow Post in the Leningrad region.
And with the former scandalous construction vice-governor, the head of the compartment, Mikhail Moskvin, and with the current Vitaly Lazutkina Astafyeva and Lenspetsstroy, the green light was always burning. Apparently, in the case of the “Leningrad perspective”, he could hope for the last to “solve the issue” through his people in the corridors of the regional government.
It would be easy to believe in this: the case against Astafyev seemed to fall apart before our eyes. It was excited back in 2018, and according to a more difficult article. The businessman was suspected of fraudulent embezzlement of almost half a billion rubles. Moreover, he was not even arrested – he was under the subscription about the wonness of the prevention, the preventive measures were changed to him only now.
As a result, there was only a waste of 220 million rubles, despite the fact that about 2 billion rubles were attracted. Where did this money go and whether they return to equity holders is not clear.
The prospect is nowhere
Recall that the construction began in 2013. The object was supposed to be handed over in 2017, but this did not happen. And in 2019, Lenspetsstroy and Lenoblststroy Group of Companies suddenly went bankrupt, although they worked on the market for a long time and had large projects of projects.
The construction at the facilities resumed only in 2022 – the Mavis group took up work beyond Astafyev. The houses were built by only 10%, i.e. For all these years, at the Lenspetsstroy and Lenoblstroy Group, work there practically did not work there. And again the question – where did the money go? And after the second – why in such a situation the investigators did not have any questions for the partner of Dmitry Astafyev Yuri Pechenyuk, who belonged to 50% of both structures?
As already mentioned, Lenspetsstroy is bankrupt – now the procedure for selling property is ongoing. The value of the company’s assets is estimated at minus 600 million rubles. However, this is not the only “Lenspetsstroy”. Dmitry Astafyev and his relatives have a company with exactly the same name, but registered in Zelenogorsk.

Its co -owners, in addition to Dmitry Astafyev, are Ekaterina, Natalia and Anastasia Astafyeva. But the information about these founders submitted to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities is recognized as false – just like the information about the leader (Astafyev) and the legal address.
Apparently, Astafyev could try to create a clone company in which the main assets of the LSS could be translated in bankruptcy. But this could interfere with a criminal case, which the equity holders followed.
Perhaps the goal was different – to pick up loans on it. Back in 2014, LLC “Coston” through the court Demanded From LLC Lenspetsstroy and LLC Lenoblstroy 190 million rubles provided under a loan agreement. However, some pieces of paper were not provided to the statement of claim – the case was left without movement, in fact, on formal grounds. As for the bankrupt LSS, the amount of court claims to him for the entire time exceeded 1 billion rubles.

Other companies related to the Astafyevs have problems with invalid information submitted to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities. For example, information about the head of MV-Invest LLC, which is formally, is Dmitry Astafyev, are recognized as such. The company is engaged in the provision of financial services, but the latest financial information is available only in 2017. Despite this, the company is not liquidated.
A similar situation with the data of LLC “Lenoblskpetsstroy”, which formally 25% own the same Dmitry, Anastasia, Natalya and Ekaterina Astafeva. Not only information about the founders, but also about the legal address, and about the leader are unreliable.
LSS contractors are waiting for money
So, Astafyev could have reasons to change companies like gloves and provide incorrect information about themselves in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities. And not only ordinary equity holders and the budget could suffer from his actions (after all, it was from the budget that they had to allocate money for the completion of the “Leningrad perspective”), but also the Lenspetsstroy contractors.
A large scandal with the contractor LSS – Technomontazh, is known. LSS acted as a developer, and “Teplomontazh” was directly engaged in the construction of three LCDs at once: “Leningrad evenings” on furniture street, “Leningrad Symphony” and “Copper Horseman” in Skrazhnaya Lane. However, as a result, it turned out that the LSS owed the contractor 300 million rubles, which had to recover through the court.
But even there, “heat control” was waiting for what is called “ambush”. As he writes “Business Petersburg”for three years, while the trial lasted, Astafyev led the LSS from the group controlled by him – in 2014 she became the property of the lawyer of the group of companies Roman Veremeyev and the owner of the consulting company “KBF” Tatyana. In 2015, Tatyana Penkina became the only owner and general director of this legal entity. Before her, the general director was held by Dmitry Astafyev himself. Then this company lost a legal attitude towards Astafyev’s Civil Code.
It seems that “Technomontazh” could not get his money. In open databases of information that Roman Veremeyev was a co -owner of the LSS. However, he, along with Tatyana Penkina, acted as a co -founder of LLC Lengrazhdanstroy. Could it be the same company that changed the name? Lengrazhdanstroy was liquidated in 2019, and in recent years has not been conducted.
In the company “Teplomontazh” They sayThat most contractors of Lenspetsstroy were in their position. According to the general director of CJSC Alexander Sobolev, at the first stage Astafyev pays for work. Then, under various pretexts, the customer receives a delay from payment, and after completing all the work, he allegedly simply refuses to pay.
Actually, we have already talked about lawsuits for 1 billion rubles filed by Lenspetsstroy. Many claims are just the requirements of the contractors to pay money for the work done. And not only builders, but even security organizations have claims.

The question arises, how did the team of Governor Alexander Drozdenko look at the work of such a developer for so many years, provided platforms, issued construction permits? After all, it was clear because of his work with contractors, what risks were available. As a result, the Leningrad region received what she received – hundreds of deceived equity holders who would enter the first apartments “prospects” only by 2025 – and even if the new contractor Mavis will fulfill its obligations.
Recall that at one time this company “Matu” Mikhail Moskvin “Mikhail Moskvin” “Movish” “Mat” on the construction site. Actually, the Lenspetsstroy “bloomed” and “Zabuha” precisely under Moskvin. And subsequently the official They accused In receiving a bribe on an especially large scale: according to the investigation, he received funds from the director of ANO “Directorate of the integrated development of the territories of the Leningrad Region” Daniil Fedichev, which was also considered close to the authorities of the region. The successor of the Moskvin, the head of the compartment of the region, Vitaly Lazutkin, needs to be very careful not to repeat his fate. And the governor Alexander Drozdenko?
