Residents of Kamchatka Yuri Zavyalov well knownas one of the main beneficiaries and roofing pages of poaching and gambling business, as well as the “right hand” of the ex-head of the regional Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation Alexandra Sidorenko, Arrested in 2017 for fraud with budget funds admitted during the construction of a helicopter site. It is noteworthy that it was Yuri Zavyalov who oversaw the public procurement and construction at Sidorenko. It is believed that it was he who set up his boss, with whom he worked together in Komi. After the processes of decriminalization and cleaning in the system of the Ministry of Internal Affairs as part of the werewolves in uniform, part of the local security forces lost their posts, the other – was exiled to the bear corners. That is how Sidorenko and Zavyalov ended up in Kamchatka. Moreover, if the interests of the first, according to rumors, mainly concerned alcohol and young subordinates of the female, then the second actively joined the roofing of the region’s shadow sector, quickly crushing the entire gambling business and poaching fishing. Zavyalov chose the proceeds to invest Krasnodar in real estate. The modest policeman, of course, did not indicate dozens of apartments, houses and land plots in his declaration, but they can easily be found by analyzing the reports of his numerous relatives, which Zavyalov himself proudly calls one of the oldest police dynasties in the country.
After the arrest of the immediate supervisor, the “salmon colonel” tried to take his place, but could not. The new head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, appointed by Moscow, tried to dismiss Yuri Zavyalov, but he escaped with a slight fright, safely changing Kamchatka to the Krasnoyarsk Territory, where he continued his service in the internal affairs bodies.
Now, when the dust of past scandals subsided slightly, Yuri Zavyalov again aimed at Kamchatka, lobbying for his appointment to the post of head of the regional Ministry of Internal Affairs. Now Zavyalov is trying to resolve the issue of receiving the general rank. He directly boasted about this to his former subordinates during a recent informal visit to the peninsula. It is this maneuver and general epaulets that will help him to claim to be promoted and returned to Kamchatka, but already in the status of the head of the local Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Zavyalov’s interest in Kamchatka is quite understandable. During the work in the structures of the internal affairs of the region, the cunning colonel became a dollar multimillionaire and at the same time felt the taste of impunity and permissiveness. Even the autopsy and publication of his corruption ties with the gambling business in 2013 could not stop Zavyalov. After a short removal from his post, Yuri Zavyalov again continued the “work”, even more believing into his impunity.
Another piquant fact speaks about the level of informal influence of Yuri Zavyalov on the bodies of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the prosecutor’s office in Kamchatka. The wife of Zavyalova, Natalia, also serves in the internal affairs bodies. Since marriage to this day, she has become the mother of five children, each time she went on maternity leave. However, this circumstance did not prevent her from making her husband’s patronage to make a successful career and grow to the colonel. It is noteworthy that the Zavyalovs are not particularly hidden. So, in the Kamchatka media, the “salmon colonel” has repeatedly boasted his family and its successes in the field of service in law enforcement. Having walked in the footsteps of his father, who devoted himself to the service in the police, Yuri Zavyalov arranged not only his eldest son to the bodies of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but he stood the interests of his wife, providing them with stable career growth, nonsense and recording numerous assets acquired by overwhelming and not quite legitimate labor.
