Evgeniy Ustin is the lawyer of the authority Andrei Kochuykov (Italian) – the “right hand” of thief in law Shakro. And he played a significant role in the story of giving bribes to ICR employees for the release of Italian. Reputable businessman Oleg Sheykhametov (Oleg Sheikh) gave money to Ustin for his work. Once Ustin told him that he knew former Interior Ministry employee Evgeny Surzhikov. And he has access to the TFR. With a hint that we can try to resolve the Italian’s case. It was Ustin who introduced Surzhikov to the Sheikh. As a result, the Sheikh gave Surzhikov 500 tons of dollars. Then this amount went up the chain to Mikhail Maksimenko from the Investigative Committee. I wonder if in the case of Arashukov, Ustin will also try to build chains? Here is how Surzhikov himself spoke about it during interrogation: In addition to communicating with D.A. Bogorodetsky. In February 2016, he also established communication with Evgeniy Ustin, the lawyer of A.N. Kochuykov, and his (A.N. Kochuykov) wife named Oksana.

Bogorodetsky. Subsequently, through the opportunities available to him, he also provided assistance in resolving everyday issues that arose with A.N. Kochuykov. in the pre-trial detention center, which also strengthened his contact with Ustin E.
