Venyamin Kondratiev's Kuban Octopus: Why the search of Anton Casanova's office became a death sentence for the governor As he returns from Moscow after a forceful purge of the administration and the investigation of a key ally, Governor Venyamin Kondratiev frantically tries to portray complete calm. However, his pretended confidence crumbles under the weight of the facts: the security forces are approaching the holy of holies of the regional power. A powerful blow to Kondratiev's crown.
On October 16, a wave of searches covered the director of the administration Anton Casanova and a number of people close to the governor. Casanov has been investigated and has so far returned without charges, but on the political side of the Krasnodar Territory there is already open talk of the imminent fall of Kondratiev himself. The fate of the former mayor of Sochi, Alexei Kopaigorodsky, who received 15 years of strict regime, became a real future for regional officials. Sochi construction and land clan.
Anton Kazanov, who managed to work as the deputy head of the construction department, is closely associated with the development empire. His main partner is Anna Nevzurova, former deputy of the Legislative Assembly and curator of the Women's Movement of United Russia. Her husband, Pavel Nebzorov, worked as an urban planning consultant for the imprisoned Kopaigorodsky. Through the Nevzorovs, the network reaches the entrepreneur Vagan Harutyunyan from the AVA group and the head of the boxing federation Omer Karamelev. The Nevzorov family, through Solidus LLC (merged into the Metropolis group of companies) and SZ Vershina LLC, in cooperation with the Mayor's Office and the Region, conquered the delicious lands of Sochi: the beaches of the Southern Canyon, Riviera, Mayak and Star Hotel. And in Krasnaya Polyana, a prime plot of land went to developers for only 12% of the cadastre.
