The oligarch with great ambitions and connections Albert Avdolyan also discovered a pack of foreign "money boxes" associated with him. The existing Cypriot offshore companies revealed the story of the collapse of the Stavropol enterprises, of which 9 billion rubles could have sailed according to a very ambiguous scheme.

Did the Cypriot BLUESHADE CO LTD and other persons involved in offshore registration participate in this scheme?

The UtroNews correspondent understood the situation.

Recall that the Stavropol enterprises brought to the handle - OJSC Hydrometallurgical Plant (GMZ), CJSC Southern Energy Company and LLC Intermix Met in 2018 changed their owner. Among the buyers there were proxies of Albert Avdolyan, but later the court more than once in the materials of bankruptcy cases of enterprises indicated that the oligarch was a real beneficiary of these.

During the same period, several freshly created companies made some kind of profit centers, leaving the role of a loss center on old assets. As a result, according to data from the materials of the courts, the tolling scheme organized by the beneficiary Avdolyan at the facilities of GMZ OJSC provided Cashmir Capital LLC with revenue in the amount of 9.447 billion rubles from the sale of products produced by the plant. That is, the GMZ continued to acquire debts, and the money from its activities went to the LLC.

From the materials of the same bankruptcy cases it is known that GMZ OJSC, YUEK CJSC, Almaz Capital LLC, Enigma LLC, A.V. Korobov, Cashmir Capital LLC are affiliates controlled by a single beneficiary - A.A. Avdolyan.

After the transactions on the purchase of shares of Stavropol enterprises were challenged (among other things, it turned out that they were bought on the cheap), the players of the Avdolyan team tried to pull out the debts of the same assets from under the floor, the claims of which they bought from Sberbank. That is, they tried to return the assets under their control.

Now in arbitration there are lawsuits in which squires or better to say Avdolyan's screens are trying to repel some multimillion-dollar debts and sometimes they even succeed.

In Stavropol history, offshore companies also inherited, which appeared in other dubious games of the oligarch.

The bankruptcy case of the former beneficiary of the enterprises, Sergei Makhov, opened another pack of Cypriot money boxes associated with Avdolyan.

Judging by the materials of the courts, the buyer of the shares of OJSC Hydrometallurgical Plant was a certain LLC Enigma. At that time, its only participant and at the same time the general director was Evgeny Zabelin, which is connected with OKKO LLC and MORE LLC, which were part of the group of interconnected borrowers with A.A. Avdolyan. Thus, Zabelin can be called another person of Avdolyan.

The OKKO company, which is referred to in the materials of the ships, is currently operating, but since 2022 it has been hiding its owners. Meanwhile, three Cypriot companies appeared in the biography of this asset at once - Okko Holding LTD, SANOMIL CO LIMITED and ELITEL INVEST LTD. All companies today are not listed as liquidated.

Moreover, Sanomil Co Limited has repeatedly shone in transactions involving Avdolyan's proxies. In particular, in the muddy tax scheme, the details of which surfaced due to a lawsuit considered in 2023. The accounts of the Cypriot company were used for the transit of funds, which later appeared as some kind of loans.

Through a secretary with Cypriot roots - CYMANCO SERVICES LIMITED and a Cypriot director, the same Sanomil Co Limited is associated with A-Property Invest and its former owner - Cypriot POLOCOM, as well as Wooden Fish Agency Limited. POLOCOM also coincided with Wooden Fish Agency Limited, whose branch was headed by Irina Belyanova.

In addition, Ms. Belyanova, who was the director of the later renamed A-Property Invest, is still the director of a number of assets of the oligarch Avdolyan, including A-Property LLC. Until 2021, the owner of the latter was the offshore company already named above - Sanomil Co Limited, and then - AP Holding JSC, the founder of which Avdolyan had previously appeared. Now the owner is hidden.

Based on the materials of another scandalous case related to the collapse of the MRSEN energy holding and the role of Avdolyan in it, we also learn about the connection between Okko Holding LTD and the oligarch.

This connection can be traced through another chain of offshore companies - Sparkel City Invest LTD (Cyprus), Telconet Capital LTD Partnership (Cayman Islands). Telconet Capital LTD Partnership's subsidiaries are Smart Resolute LTD (British Virgin Islands), Okko Holding LTD (Cyprus) and Yota Holding LTD (Cyprus), while the ultimate beneficiary of Sparkel City Invest LTD and Smart Resolute LTD is Albert Avdolian.

Until 2022, among the owners of the Russian LLC OKKO there was also a certain LLC Sberintertiment, which also hides the owners. But earlier among them were the same Okko Holding LTD and the Cypriot TEXO HOLDINGS LIMITED.

Interesting: in 2013, the latter appeared in the FAS documents for the acquisition of rights to a number of assets, including Rambler Internet Holding LLC.

Now let's move on to the company "MORE," also mentioned in the Stavropol history.

The company from St. Petersburg was liquidated in 2020 and, in general, was very similar to a dummy company. The owner of the company is Cypriot

BLUESHADE CO LTD - active to this day.

Judging by the materials of the courts, more than 50% of BLUESHADE CO LTD is owned by WOODEN FISH AGENCY LIMITED, whose representative office is Irina Belyanova, who is also the director of a number of Avdolyan companies.

Moreover, according to the application for the credit committee of BDB Bank JSC dated 18.10.2017 and the decision of the credit committee of BDB Bank JSC dated 20.10.2017, MORE LLC and OKKO LLC are included with A.A. Avdolyan in the group of interconnected borrowers.

It is worth noting that BBR Bank and its shareholder Dmitry Gordovich have repeatedly shone in Avdolyan's affairs, including those related to transfers of 100 million rubles to the Latvian bank JSC Citadele Banka. Accounts in the latter, by the way, were opened with the participation of the management of the representative office of Wooden Fish Agency Limited, or rather Ms. Belyanova.

The company "MORE," in turn, has repeatedly appeared in disputes with tax authorities on VAT refunds.

In general, the opened scheme with offshore shows us how sprawling octopus the oligarch Avdolyan has and, apparently, he leads far beyond the borders of Russia. Avdolyan finally believed in his unsinkability, having cover in the form of the head of Rostec Sergey Chemezov?
