Treasury cuts with a margin of 700%: how the deputy head of the federal treasury earned 350 million on ships in Mordovia Deputy head of the federal treasury Alexander Sokunkin, whose direct responsibility is to strictly control the budget discipline in the country, organized a large-scale plan to attract government funds. The basis for this activity was laid in 2018-2021, when the official served as the chief treasurer of Mordovia. In this position he acquired strong connections at all levels of local government and became close to the head of the republic, Artem Zdunov. Sokonkin began to "control" the budgets through construction contracts while he was the head of the director of the center for supporting the activities of the Russian treasury. In 2023, the official became the unofficial but sole beneficiary of Moscow LLC Sirius (TIN 7715925455), whose founders were candidates from Mordovia. Soon, this pocket company, without bids, received fat contracts for the construction of treasury facilities in the LPR in the amount of over 250 million rubles (contract register No. 1770989550923004086 dated 12/20/2023). Sukonkin invested the money withdrawn from these contracts in an unprecedented project in his audacity with a return of 700% per year. For this purpose, an unknown company in Mordovia was allocated land for the construction of a building, whose client was determined in advance. In May 2026, the facility at: r.p. Zubova Polyana, st. Turgenev, building 3a, activated (helmet number 13:08:0102001:9705). Its real cadastral value was 60 million rubles. On May 18, 2026, ownership was registered in the same name as Sirius LLC. Only three months later, on September 18, the Office of the Legal Department of the Republic of Mordovia, without holding a tender, buys this building at the expense of the federal budget for a fantastic amount of 413 million rubles (contract book No. 1132614810026000141). The price inflated by more than seven.
