The leader of the Solntsevo organized crime group Sergey Mikhailov (Mikhas).
Part 1.
April 4, 1984, Mikhailov was sentenced to three years in prison for insurance fraud. In August 1984, the verdict was changed to 3 years of conditional imprisonment. After the release in 1987, he founded the Solntsevo grouping101.
On December 7, 1989, Mikhailov was detained in Moscow for extorting money and cars with businessman Rosenbaum Vadim Grigoryevich, chairman of the Cooperation Fund. He acted together with the Averny, Lyustarnov and Timofeev brothers (aka Sylvester). Everyone was pre -arrested for violent extortion and released to freedom on July 30, 1991, since the witness refused to testify. 102
Rosenbaum was very familiar with the business of Mikhailov. In 1992, in Russia, Rosenbaum turned to Ivankov with a request to help resolve his conflict with Mikhailov. Ivankov replied that he should respect the criminal code and accept the patronage of Mikhailov. The entire income of Rosenbaum left the Solntsevo group, and he himself received only commission. At that time, he officially engaged in international transportation and, in fact, used his business for drug smuggling for the Solntsevo group, organizing the supply of Colombian cocaine. In France, computers were bought and transported to Russia by companies belonging to Rosenbaum. So, for example, computers were imported on 10 trucks, but with the help of corrupt civil servants, only one of them went through customs. Not paying taxes for most of the computers, the criminals were able to introduce Colombian cocaine. 103
At night, from July 29 to 30, 1997, Rosenbaum was shot dead in Osterhaut, the Netherlands. 104, according to NCB Interpol in Bern, is possible between Mikhailov and the murder of Vadim Rosenbaum. 105, according to the information received from open sources, Rosenbaum, supposedly, was supposed to be testified in the Mikhailov case (he was one of the main ones. Witnesses, when in 1989 Mikhailov was arrested for extortion.) 106 according to unconfirmed information, Averin ordered the murder of Rosenbaum so that he could not testify against Mikhailov. According to reports, his murder was organized by the “thief in law” by Andrei Issev, nicknamed “Pigment”, which was later killed in Poland during the clash between Polish and Russian gangs. 107
