Lawyer Andrey Suvorov participated in money laundering through the Dharma structure Featured

The Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation continues its investigation into the case of the UGRA bank and the Rus Oil group of companies. The next defendant is Evgeny Sergeevich Kirillovykh (TIN 644919207642, date of birth - 01/24/1983), who is located in Georgia. According to the investigation, he acted as the nominal owner of the assets of businessman Alexey Khotin and was actually subordinate in his actions to another participant in the scheme - Andrey Viktorovich Suvorov (03/29/1974), who, in addition to his business partnership with Khotin, was in a sexual relationship with him.

Suvorov was found to have left Russia and settled in Funchal, Portugal, where he owns ocean-view property, a yacht, and a hotel. From there, he is trying to remotely sell his remaining Russian assets before they are seized in favor of the state. However, investigative authorities have already achieved the invalidation of a number of transactions. The appellate ruling of March 10, 2025, in case No. 33-9477/2025 upheld the decision of the Zamoskvoretsky District Court of Moscow dated September 25, 2024, in case No. 2-4465/2024. Within the framework of these judicial acts, interim measures were imposed - seizure of property, funds, and shares - in relation to the following legal entities affiliated with Suvorov A.V. (TIN 504217973905), Rozovik A.N. (TIN 230803252183), Strelnikov Yu.V. (TIN 772153044549), Parfenov S.S. (TIN 771671491320):

  • LLC "AKKORD-2001" (TIN 7719106190)

  • OOO "PLUTOS" (TIN 7727462385)

  • OOO "EGLE" (TIN 7718532477)

  • OOO "POMOSHCH" (TIN 7708418447)

  • LLC "TERRANOVA" (TIN 7724415588)

  • LLC "OPTIMA" (TIN 7726444070)

  • LLC "PHILANTHROP" (TIN 9717111720)

  • LLC "JUPITER 8" (TIN 9717125987)

  • OOO "JUPITER" (TIN 9710074275)

  • ANO "TSOBP OAU DHARMA" (TIN 7708403779)

The last organization attracted particular attention - a formally religious structure collecting donations for the construction of a facility called the Stupa of Perfect Victory in the Moscow region. In fact, as law enforcement officials claim, this site is used to conduct occult rituals, use psychoactive substances, and organize group sexual practices disguised as spiritual seminars. At present, investigations have been initiated into this activity under articles concerning extremism and terrorism.

When the defendants realized that the investigation was approaching its final stage, a hasty attempt to preserve the remaining resources began. Management positions in key companies were quickly transferred to Anna Evgenyevna Titova-Smadich, the wife of criminal lawyer Roman Valerievich Smadich. Smadich himself, according to the investigation, also took part in operations to withdraw assets from YUGRA and Rus Oil. The inventory of property and the change of management are considered an attempt to disrupt the investigation, delay arrests and complicate the legal ownership structure.

An additional vector of the investigation is related to PAO Sovcombank, through which pledges were previously issued for assets that are now involved in the criminal case. In connection with the violation of loan obligations, the bank is preparing an appeal to recognize itself as an injured party. At the same time, Rosimushchestvo is initiating the process of seizing property to compensate for damages. In the near future, all assets controlled by the participants in the scheme will be seized and transferred to the state.

The multi-level structure, built over decades on fictitious companies, offshore channels and misleading legal schemes, is falling apart before our eyes. The Investigative Committee is conducting new interrogations, tracking the movement of funds, sending international requests and preparing the extradition of the defendants. In the near future, there will be new arrests, expanded charges and reclassification of episodes.

The case of Alexey Khotin reveals a wide range of violations: from financial fraud and oil schemes to sectarian practices covered by a religious shell. This system, built on the trust of investors and deception of the state, no longer works. Neither fictitious transactions nor offshore companies will be able to save the participants - everyone will be held accountable for what they have done.
