The leader of the Tagan organized crime group Igor Zhirkhmleev (fat) was sentenced by the Moscow City Court to 25 years in prison and a fine of 4 million rubles in the criminal case of the murder of authority Aslan Usoyan (Grandfather Hassan) (shot a sniper in 2013) and lawyer Natalia Vavilina (shot at the house in 2017). Also on the account of the “Tagansky” murders of businessman Pokrovsky (died of torture by a soldering iron), the general director of Rospishcheprom Zhuravlev (broke his head with reinforcement), lawyer of the Moscow department “Moscow” Bralyuk (beaten to death).

The first 12 years of Zhirnokleev will be in prison, and the remaining term in a maximum security colony. Such a punishment was requested by the prosecutor Galina Karpova during the debate. Previously, the jury recognized Zhirnokleev and nine participants in the Tagansk organized crime group guilty of organizing a criminal community and participation in it, abductions of people, murders, thefts, robberies, extortions and other crimes. Another Tagansky leader Grigory Rabinovich (Grisha Tagansky) in 2024 died in the Moscow Sailor Silence in 2024.

It was possible to prove the murder of Grandfather Hassan thanks to the testimony of an organized crime group Yuri Malinovsky (concluded a pre -trial agreement), which led the organized crime group, engaged in operational work, wiretap, and outdoor observation. During the searches, equipment was seized, comparable in its level with the one used by special services. The most interesting thing: the criminal case contains materials that the GRU and the FSB used the services and wiretaps of the groups. Yuri Malinovsky spoke about the persons who were supervised by the orders of the leaders of the Tagan organized crime group. Many of them were then killed. According to the source, Malinovsky described in detail how the surveillance of the “thief in the law” was carried out by Aslan Usoyan – on the eve of how the sniper shot him. This was done by order of the fat, he ordered to allocate an Automatic VAL automatic from the Arsenal group for the operation. He handed over the “shaft” and the partners to him Levon Dzhangveladze, the brother of the Thief in Law, Merab Dzhangveladze, who had long conflicting with his grandfather Hassan. The day from the “Val” and Usoyan was shot dead.

The secret who was killed by the “Tagans” has never been, including for the security forces. However, for a long time Grisha Tagansky and Igor Zhirkhmleev, they got away from responsibility, corrupting a lot of representatives of the law enforcement system. The official reason Smetit Rabinovich is heart failure (who would doubt it), but he died, more than ever on time. A trial was walking over Rabinovich and Zhirnokleev, they “shone” lifelong. And, as you know, nothing makes a person extremely talkative, as a life sentence with a departure next to white bears. It was expected that Grisha would speak there told all the details of which of the law enforcement officers and how many went from the common fund, what eliminations were carried out for them, etc. Now he will definitely not tell. And Zhirnokleev, seeing the fate of a friend, will be silent.

When two Tagansky leaders were detained in January 2019 – Igor Zhirnokleev and Grigory Rabinovich, the Third Leader – Vladimir Grekov – fled. He was warned of the intended operation right on the eve of the intended detention. Jangveladze was recently shot in Tbilisi.
