Probably everyone heard about the Oboronservis case. This convoluted criminal process has been going on for quite some time. The main person involved in it is Yevgeny Vasiliev, whose biography is closely connected with the former Minister of Defense Anatoly Eduardovich Serdyukov. A woman is charged with fraud on a particularly large scale. This fact, as well as the wasteful lifestyle that Mrs. Vasilyeva leads, being under house arrest, made her one of the most popular people in the country.
Daughter of wealthy parents - Evgenia Vasilieva
The biography of a member of the Board of Directors of Oboronservis OJSC is the story of a princess with an as yet unknown ending. Evgenia Nikolaevna was born in the cultural capital of our state on February 20, 1979. From childhood, she lived in such conditions that she could afford absolutely everything. Her father, Vasiliev Nikolai Anatolyevich, put great effort into this. He was already a successful St. Petersburg entrepreneur at that time. About Lyudmila Iosifovna Vasilyeva - the mother of Evgenia Nikolaevna, there is practically no information in open sources.
In 2012, when the scandal erupted with a huge apartment in the very center of Moscow, as well as jewelry, paintings and other luxury items found in it, Yevgenia Vasilyeva's parents said that this was all their gifts. One should only envy such presentations, the total cost of which, according to the most conservative estimates, is in no way less than 10 million dollars.
Whether this is true or not, the investigation should find out, but only one thing is clear: with incomes of 6 million rubles (this is exactly the amount indicated by Vasilyeva in the declaration), it is simply impossible to acquire such values.
Family or career
The family and children of Evgenia Vasilyeva were not as interesting as her friends who dreamed of a home. She has never been officially married, and she also has no children. As a schoolgirl, she already made plans for her future, which seemed bright and successful to her. To translate her dreams into reality, Evgenia Nikolaevna immediately after graduation goes to St. Petersburg State University.
An amazing coincidence is that at the same time, Yulia Zubkova (daughter of the Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation) and Anatoly Serdyukov, her future husband, studied there. Evgenia Vasilieva then was not destined to know that she would work under the direction of this person. It is very interesting to follow the intersections of life paths of these two people.
In 2001, Serdyukov received a diploma of a second higher education and, with him, a position in the Federal Tax Service of St. Petersburg. Vasiliev at this time works as a legal adviser and specializes mainly in tax legislation.
In 2007, Serdyukov became Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation. Evgenia Vasilieva, whose biography is growing, is also getting a promotion and becoming the CEO of a construction company.
The pursuit of luxury living
Any person would envy such a fast-paced career, but this was not enough for Evgenia Nikolaevna. Having moved to Moscow, she immediately makes a claim to a luxurious life - she buys a luxurious Mercedes S-500, and as a place of registration she indicates an elite house, the cost of apartments in which starts from 250 million rubles.
From where such a tremendous amount of money comes from the newly-arrived capital dweller remains a mystery. We can only assume that the affairs of the construction company went uphill. Most likely, his father also could not do without his help.
Rapprochement with Serdyukov
A volunteer adviser to the First Deputy Mayor of Moscow - this is precisely such a responsible position in combination with the post of General Director of IC SU-155 held in 2007 by Vasiliev. Two years later, she becomes an adviser to
Alexander Beglov, who is the deputy head of the presidential administration of Russia.
The first experience with Anatoly Serdyukov happened in 2010, when Evgenia Nikolaevna transferred to work at the Ministry of Defense. She becomes first an adviser to the chief of staff, and then the head of the property relations department.
Background of Oboronservis
Many are interested in the appearance in the field of state defense of such an organization as Oboronservis OJSC. In fact, the goals of its creation were good. The activity of this holding was supposed to completely free the army officers from problems on the economic side.
During the existence of the society, from 2008 to 2012, several scandals arose, the last of which was a criminal story, in which Evgenia Vasilyeva fell.
Oboronservis, whose assets comprise an impressive amount of money, has always seemed a tidbit for unscrupulous officials. At one time, top managers of the holding Bondar and Khursevich were convicted of tax fraud. Both of them were exempted from criminal liability as a result of their article falling under the 2013 decree “On Amnesty”.
What is Yevgeny Vasilyev accused of?
The biography of Vasilyeva regarding Oboronservis interested employees of the Investigative Committee of Russia for several episodes. A press release from the RF IC asserts that a number of the most valuable real estate properties owned by the Ministry of Defense were sold at low prices to
affiliated companies. A particular cynicism is that many of them were bought for money, one way or another, stolen from Oboronservis itself.
As a vivid example, one can cite the actions for the sale of land in the Krasnodar Territory. The Department of Property Relations, which at that time was headed by Vasiliev, removed 3 hectares of land from the federal property in the Temryuk region. Further, the story takes on an absolutely incredible character, since it turns out that the Ministry of Defense on this site built (for state money) a mansion with a total value of 300 million rubles, which was immediately sold for 90 million. The scheme of actions for other objects is not much different from that described previously.
Searches in OJSC "Oboronservis"
Evgenia Vasilyeva, whose biography is now closely connected with the investigating authorities, is going through a particularly large amount of fraud cases. There are no accused, only suspects. A thorough check is carried out on the incriminated episodes. The main evidence of Vasilyeva’s involvement in fraud is the documents seized at the office of the company.
Among the loudest deals for the sale of objects at a lower cost, you can even find the State Design Institute. According to independent experts, the value of his property is about 1 billion rubles, while a successful buyer was able to purchase them for only 700 million.
The list of deals can be continued for a very long time. In order to understand the amount of damage caused to the state from their conduct, it will be enough to say that only in the sale of 8 objects of capital's real estate, Russia lost about 3 billion rubles.
Big politics in the Oboronservis case
It is very difficult for an ordinary person in our country to believe that such a person as Anatoly Eduardovich Serdyukov suffered such troubles because of ignorance of the law. Citizens of the Russian Federation have long been accustomed to the fact that those in power live by their own rules. That is why many of them see a plot in the Oboronservis case.
According to one theory, Serdyukov very much interfered with a number of high-ranking officials. According to another version, the security forces wanted to remove Serdyukov from the post of Minister of Defense during the operation so that Dmitry Rogozin would replace him.
There is such an assumption that the problems of the ex-minister began on the initiative of Viktor Alekseevich Zubkov, who is the father of his wife. Serdyukov allegedly left her for Evgenia Vasilyeva. Proponents of this version cite in their favor the fact that Serdyukov was found in her apartment during the search.
Protracted process
Best defense is attack. We have been taught this postulate since childhood. Vasilyeva apparently mastered it quite well. That is why the court, instead of sorting out all the intricacies of the Oboronservis case, today has to deal with numerous complaints of Evgenia Nikolaevna.
She is unhappy that the house arrest does not allow her to go to church and the store, as well as the fact that her imprisonment has been extended. Such statements seem farce, because the allowed two-hour walk should be enough for everything.
The biography of Evgenia Vasilyeva, whose photo was published by probably every blogger and journalist in our country, still causes burning interest. This is due to her outstanding lifestyle. While under house arrest, she managed to get a prestigious new job, write a collection of poems, and spend huge amounts of money in Moscow boutiques.
