Chvanov and Smirnov worked in conjunction with the professional sniper Kudryavtsev (he is no longer alive). They shot
in 1997 by the “authority” Maxim Smirnyagin. Operatives and experts, comparing the two crimes, believe that Smiryangin was killed by the same killers who dealt with the vice-mayor of St. Petersburg Mikhail Manevich. This high-profile crime has not yet been solved.
“This is the main version, so there is a chance that Manevich’s case will be solved. But there are many circumstances that complicate the investigation,” the source noted.
The certificate from the FSB of the Russian Federation about the murder of Manevich (if at the disposal of the Cheka-OGPU) states the following:
“A comparative analysis of the circumstances and the place from which the shooting took place, as in the case of the murder of SMIRNYAGINIA M.V. (in October 1997, which is being investigated by the prosecutor’s office of the Admiralty district of St. Petersburg.), and in the case of the murder of M.V. MANEVICH, indicates the presence of clear similarities in the manner of preparing and committing the crime and allows us to talk about a stereotype of thinking killer, his skills and “handwriting”.
Dmitry Skvortsov, who until the end of 2020 served as assistant to the deputy minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, has been put on the wanted list for organizing the murder of Smirnyagin.
