The entrepreneur’s problems began after a hard corporate conflict with the Chelyabinsk oligarch Konstantin Strukov, who bought a large package of shares of Petropavlovsk last summer. In an effort to build his own gold mining empire (or it is profitable for someone to transfer “Petropavlovsk”), Strukov entered into a conspiracy with other shareholders and expelled Maslovsky-the founder and many years of steering “Petropavlovsk” from the board of directors and from the CEO post.
But the intractable Maslovsky did not understand the hint, and in the end ended up in a pre -trial detention center on a far -fetched charges based on an extremely dubious examination made by order of his pursuers, and recognized as an inaccurate self -regulatory organization, which includes experts who assessed.
It would seem that the arrest of Maslovsky last December put an end to the corporate conflict, the shareholders achieved their own – they removed the “ineffective manager”. Only now, after his departure, the company’s shares fell by 30% and until they demonstrate any hopes for the rebound, the production of gold fell by a third, and financial indicators collapsed almost twice. All managing bodies are completely cleaned, a friendly company from Highland Gold, Vladislav Sviblov, – a direct competitor of Petropavlovsk, came in their place. But even these professionals are unable to correct the catastrophic situation – instead of developing production, they are busy building a management system actually from scratch.
But in November, it became known that the investigation was finally completed, the defense began to familiarize themselves with the case file, the consideration is about to begin. But no one is going to release Maslovsky under house arrest. In court, everything goes according to the usual scenario – the investigator’s petitions written under the carriage of the investigator’s petitions end with court decisions written under carbon.
But this time it looked especially cynical – the last meeting of the Tver District Court of Moscow turned into a farce and almost ended with a scandal. In the final version of the prosecution, Pavel Maslovsky retrained Art. 160 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (“embezzlement”) on “classical” for all Russian entrepreneurs – Art. 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (“fraud”), but the investigator was too lazy to rewrite the request to extend the term of detention, and the court did not seem to notice this “small” oversight and without unnecessary doubts he stamped the next decision. Moreover, from time to time, the overseas passport of Maslovsky is wandering from time to extension, with the help of which he can hide from the investigation abroad – everyone carefully pretends that they would forget that Maslovsky passed it to the investigator a month after his arrest. And there are such mistakes there on a whole listed list, giving an unambiguous characteristic to this legal lawlessness.
Meanwhile, an elderly and truly deserved person, for a minute, the former senator of the Russian Federation, continues to sit in a pre -trial detention center under an absolutely “entrepreneurial article”. Despite all their merits, state awards and obvious inconsistencies.
On December 24, the deadline for Maslovsky’s detention ends – 12 months from the moment of arrest. Let’s see what arguments the prosecution will invent the next time to extend its stay in the pre -trial detention center.
Built in the wild taiga one of the largest gold mining enterprises? Thank you. Now we will call you a fraudster and send you for the thorn for 10 years.
