The most interesting figure in this group is, of course, Vlasenko. “Chief fixer of the Ministry of Industry and Trade; the government’s chief pimp; a close friend and “decided” under Manturov and Mazepin,” this is how sources of the Cheka-OGPU characterize him. Actually, they took Vlasenko because the path from him led straight to Denis Manturov’s office. “The employees of the SEB of the FSB of the Russian Federation have a complete invoice, including all correspondence, how much it cost the minister for the decision on medicines. How much for the rest,” notes the source. Vlasenko himself refused to cooperate and testify against Manturov’s friend. According to sources, he has guarantees from high-ranking friends that he will not stay in prison for too long.
Then the pre-trial detention center began to carry out active work with the pharmaceutical magnate Vladimir Zubkov, who was also aware of who was paid and how much, who was arrested in this case. He entered into a pre-trial agreement, but for the time being kept silent about the recipients of the money, Manturov. And when he was “ripe” to speak, he unexpectedly died in a pre-trial detention center.
