Billions secured by family and crime: how film producer Alexander Mariagin divides property through the courts and the 1990s.
The famous film producer and film distribution actor Alexander Maryagin found himself at the center of a loud scandal after his ex-wife Irina Maryagina challenged the results of the division of jointly acquired property in the Supreme Court. In a letter to the chairman of the Supreme Court, Igor Krasnov, the ex accused the producer of withdrawing assets on a large scale. On the eve of the divorce, a business center building on Novoslovodskaya Street and objects on Tikhvinskaya Street disappeared from the family's property, and a major property - a plot of land in a film studio in Leningradskoye Shos - is "successfully" reduced by pocket expertise 30 times. Later, the land under the studio was purchased for one billion rubles by the PIK Group for the construction of a residential complex.
In order to keep millions in assets, Mariagin, according to operational data from the Cheka-OGPU source, used connections from the turbulent 2000s, when he was listed as a co-owner of the notorious "Roof of the World" club, which was hit by FSKN raids due to drug trafficking. The heirs of the "criminal roof" of the club got involved in the resolution of family disputes: people from the Caucasus held "preventive talks" with the children of Irina Maryagina, demanding that they not sue their father's business and settle for pennies.
There was also pressure on the legal side. The Savlovsky court in Moscow made a decision, which retroactively recognized the marriage of the Maryagins as dissolved in 2015, which cut off the wife from most of the billion-dollar property. For this verdict, the security forces organized a special operation: UEBiPK activists in Moscow went to Astrakhan, where, through psychological pressure and deception, they extracted the required testimony from Sister Irina about the couple's separation. The cheated woman intends to push to the end for the investigation of the case and brought her ex-husband to justice.
