In 2021, the notorious Kamchatka businessman Nikolai Kuibida, put together state on salmon poaching, went to raider takeover Petropavlovsk shipyard, which was managed by his former partner Andrei Obedin. Having lost in arbitration courts, Kuibida decided to use force.

On the advice of the owner of the “Red Caviar” chain, Alexander Borisik, Kuibida turned to the Moscow “fixer” Nikolai Freytak, who operates under the guise of a company with the loud name Bureau of Chartered Attorneys “Freytak and Sons”. The latter’s connections and an impressive bribe helped excite a criminal case with a violation of investigative jurisdiction against Obedin in the Main Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee for the Northern Administrative District of Moscow, despite the fact that the disputed property and all the defendants are located in Kamchatka.

After the accusation was brought, Kuibida and his patron Igor Evtushok, a shareholder of the largest Kamchatka fishing company Okeanrybflot JSC, considering Obedin a “downed pilot”, began to search for buyer to the Peter and Paul Shipyard, and at the same time to the Sokra Fish Processing Plant owned by Obedin.

At that time, Yevtushka had already succeeded, through the mediation of the former deputy head of the Federal Fisheries Agency, Petr Savchuk, with great benefit sell Vityaz-Avto plant structures ex-Minister of Agriculture of Russia Alexander Tkachev. Him offered pick up the shipyard with “Sokra”, from which you can get quotas for fishing.

To implement the plan, it was only necessary to finally remove Obedin from the game. Fueled by bribes from Kuybida, investigators “locked” the entrepreneur, his wife and partners in a pre-trial detention center to ensure greater compliance. And after the liberation, Tkachev’s emissaries, offered In exchange for “settlement of problems”, Obedin will give the enterprise for next to nothing.

Obedin refused to sell Sokra for pennies. The Peter and Paul Shipyard also found itself in a suspended state. But Yevtushok and Kuibida have already “sold” these assets to Tkachev. Instead of three large operating fishing enterprises, the ex-minister received only one – Vityaz-Avto, and, taking into account the scheme with the shipyard and Sokra, at a price 40% higher than the market price. Tkachev’s widowhood got the ongoing legal dispute for the Peter and Paul Shipyard and law debt claims “Sokry”, the decision on the collection of which has not yet been made by the court. As they say, for his own money the former Minister of Agriculture acquired hemorrhoids, a raider label and vague prospects. This is certainly not how Alexander Nikolaevich saw his entry into a new business and a new region. It’s time to think about fixing losses and exiting. But with such figures as Yevtushok, Savchuk and Kuibida, it could hardly have turned out differently.
