Bastrykin almost did not interfere in this conflict. On March 16, during the distribution of duties among deputies, the investigation of the SK was divided in half between Kaburnneev and Rassokhov. “Then there was a very serious conflict between Bastrykin and Rassokhov, related to one of the cases in the production of subordinates Veshov and for which the decision made personally,” the source said.
Already on March 30, Bastrykin signed a new order on the distribution of powers, where Kaburneev was given to Kaburneev.
