Deputy Head of Sochi from 2021 Yuri Tsitskiev in 2013 - 2018 Served in the FKP “Capital Construction Customer Directorate (CS) of the Russian Ministry of Defense.” This structure in 2018-2022. was headed by Magomed Khandayev, who unexpectedly died on July 8, the head of the State Expertise Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, subordinate to the arrested Timur Ivanov, ex-Deputy Minister of Defense. Khandayev died on the same day as businessman Igor Kotelnikov, who was accused of giving bribes to military officials. Details from Rucriminal.info and the VChK-OGPU telegram channel.

Tsitskiev’s boss at the FKP from 2015 to 2017 was Dmitry Baskakov. From 2023 to May 2024, he headed the Housing Complex JSC. The revenue of this company in 2023 increased by 1,268% to RUB 1.3 billion. And it obviously couldn’t have happened without Yuri Tsikiev, since until 2021 the company belonged to the Sochi City Administration. JSC Housing Complex could play the role of a “layer”, since it acted as a contractor in contracts worth almost 300 million rubles, and as a customer for unknown contractors - for 8.7 billion rubles. After the arrest of Timur Ivanov, Dmitry Baksakov realized that he smelled something fried and left the “bread” place, but Yuri Tsitskiev still feels safe, but in vain.

Now JSC Housing Complex is headed by Magomed Khabliev, who is considered a relative of Yuri Tsitskiev; the company’s contractors may be companies close to him, which is why there is no information about them in open sources. One of the accomplices of the deputy head of Sochi is his wife’s brother Alex Vedzizhev, the owner of Zarechye LLC, where he was the head until the beginning of July. In June, Vedzizhev resigned from his post as general director of ARS LLC, owned by Islam Iliev. This company has only 1 contract in its portfolio for 11 million rubles, concluded with MKU Sochi “UKS” in 2022. At Zarechye LLC, revenue in 2023 increased sharply by 100% to 29 million rubles.

MKU Sochi "UKS", thanks to Yuri Tsitskiev, may come to the attention of the security forces. The company has contracts worth 32 billion rubles. The largest customer is Instroyproekt LLC (ISP), owned by Yuri Krets. In January, MKU Sochi “UKS” entered into an agreement with ISP for 4.1 billion rubles. to carry out work on the construction of a school in the Severnaya Bytkha microdistrict of the Khostinsky district of Sochi. And this despite the fact that in 2023, execution under two contracts was terminated. Almost all ISP contracts with MKU Sochi “UKS” have been concluded since 2021, when Yuri Tsitskiev took his position.

 

Another former boss of Tsitskiev from 2017 to 2018, Alexander Vilkomir, now heads Kapstroycity JSC, which is a contractor for the structures of the Moscow City Hall. How can we not remember that Yuri Tsitskiev, from 2020 to 2021, was the deputy head of capital construction of the Moscow Canal Federal State Budgetary Institution. Both former officials of the Ministry of Defense turned out to be well placed under the wing of Sergei Sobyanin.

 

Yuri Tsitskiev from 2005 to 2012 worked at the Moscow City Headquarters of Youth Student Detachments, then headed the Moscow regional branch of the public Moscow Public Organization “Russian Student Detachments”. It was work in the capital that helped the future army official acquire influential Moscow patrons, among whom could be ex-Minister of Defense Sergei Shoigu and Timur Ivanov. Tsitskiev found himself in the Ministry of Defense almost immediately after the arrival of new leadership in 2012.

 

Uncle Yusup Tsitskiev, who served as head of the Ministry of Emergency Situations in the Republic of Ingushetia in 2003-2010, could have contributed to this. Subsequently, he served in the Southern Regional Center for Civil Defense, Emergency Situations and Disaster Relief. In 2013, a scandal broke out - Yusup Tsitskiev was suspected of creating a criminal community, which caused damage to the state of almost 900 million rubles, fifteen employees of the ex-minister were brought to criminal responsibility, but he himself got away with it and in 2015. retired to the reserve. It’s not hard to guess who got rid of his former subordinate at the Ministry of Emergency Situations. So there is no accident that Yuri Tsitskiev ended up in the Ministry of Defense. Investigators have yet to determine the role of the former department official in his schemes.

 

On July 19, Andrei Proshunin, who had been acting since June 17, was elected the new head of Sochi. Before that, he held the position of vice-governor, overseeing the ministries of the fuel and energy complex and housing and communal services, roads, and the department of state regulation of tariffs. Local official Proshunin may not get along with newcomer Yuri Tsitskiev.

 

Investigators continue to develop the case of Timur Ivanov, who recently refused to enter into a pre-trial cooperation agreement and does not admit his guilt. To put pressure on the former deputy minister of defense, new levers are needed. One of them could be Yuri Tsitskiev.

 

Earlier, the telegram channel VChK-OGPU reported that the deputy head of the Sochi administration, Yuri Tsitskiev, started a pocket company, JSC Housing Complex. A close friend became the director of the company relative Magomet Khabliev, but only subcontractors work, but from relatives. The brother of Tsitskiev’s wife, Alex Vedzizhev, started two of his own companies, LLC ARS, LLC Zarechye; other relatives have more modest volumes, but 6.5 billion rubles are put into their pockets.

Time passes; for two years the execution rate has not risen above 20%. But this is not a problem for Yuri Tsitskiev, when there are high-ranking patrons from Moscow, about whom you can learn all the details from the same Yuri at the base in the vicinity of Mariupol, where there are no sober evenings.

As the volume of advances grows, Yuri Tsitskiev’s wealth also grows, but Sochi real estate and movable property are still in the hands of relatives.

Moscow patrons have no questions about Yuri Tsitskiev’s family circle. Uncle Yusup Tsitskiev, the former head of the Ingush Ministry of Emergency Situations, was caught stealing 900 million rubles; uncle Sultan Tsitskiev was part of a group of suicide bombers together with Arab mercenaries and was killed in a shootout with law enforcement agencies. Nephew Azamat Tsitskiev is known for the recent seizure of the Rostov pre-trial detention center.

While studying at the Dagestan State Technical University, Yuri Tsitskiev repeatedly visited a mosque in the Karabudakhkent region of Dagestan, known for the underground Wahhabi militants.

It was people from the mosque in the Karabudakhkent region who organized the massacre in Dagestan last weekend.

How active alcoholic libations are combined with orthodox religiosity remains a mystery to many.

Where Yuri Tsitskiev lacks administrative resources, decision-makers come to the rescue, such as former investigator Khamzat Malsagov, a well-known lover of physical violence against detainees.

Sochi residents can sleep peacefully; with such a deputy head of administration, the city is definitely safe.
