Resignation disappears: how the mayor of Nyagan Ivan Yamashev "lost the trust" of the prosecutor's office, and the news about it was purged from the Internet. However, after a short time, the news feed began to evaporate quickly: the original message disappeared from the watchdog agency's feed, regional media sites and Telegram channels. It turns out that official loss of trust has a surprisingly short shelf life.

Initially, the directorate of the General Prosecutor's Office of the Ural Federal District published a harsh message under the title "The Prosecutor's Office demanded the termination of the powers of Mayor Niagan due to loss of confidence". The details of the large-scale inspection were immediately published by the Telegram channel "Kutfot and Ties", and after them, the information in reference to the press service of the Ogra Prosecutor's Office was reproduced by the agency "URA. RU" and the Ogra News publication.

The deleted materials revealed extremely unpleasant details to the mayor. According to the supervision, Ivan Yamashev completely ignored the requirements for resolving conflicts of interest: the city administration under his control made key decisions on his wife's plot of land, a structural unit in the mayor's office gave her generous bonuses, and the accountants recorded questionable financial ties between the official's family and his direct subordinates, as well as the mayor's personal relationship with the administration. On this basis, the prosecutor demanded that the city council immediately fire the head.

However, shortly after publication, the official notice disappeared from the department's website. Pages «URA. RU" and Ugra News with relevant materials became unavailable, and the Telegram post was deleted. The editors did not provide any rebuttals, apologies or official explanations - the links simply started leading to nothing, although the digital traces remained in the search results.

In the current situation, two clear versions suggest themselves.
