The assets of the state Mosgortrans from Nisanov's squires eventually partially passed to the oligarch Khikhinashvili, who may have ties with the Ukrainian billionaire Igor Kolomoisky (included in the list of terrorists and extremists).
A fat piece of Moscow land under the buildings of the former auto plant two years after high-profile tenders at the suggestion of the Sobyanin protege, developer God Nisanov, migrated into the hands of Turkish developers and the wife of the oligarch Khikhinashvili, who previously could have connections with the Ukrainian oligarch Igor Kolomoisky (included in the list of terrorists and extremists).
The UtroNews correspondent figured out how the deal with state assets was done and who had their interest from that.
Recall that in 2022 Mosgortrans put under the hammer one of its assets - LLC Center for the Development of Territories (MDG), established a year before (probably under the upcoming deal). The main value of the MDG was in assets - seven buildings of the former auto plant with a total area of 15.7 thousand square meters. m on the street Rogozhsky val. Although, perhaps, for the buyer, the main value was in the land on which these buildings stand - a plot with a total area of 24.5 thousand square meters. m.

The buyer then was a certain Roman Agababaev, who was directly related to the developer, close to the mayor Sobyanin Goda Nisanov.

This was not the first time Agababaev acted in the interests of the Kievskaya Ploshchad group of God Nisanov and Zarakh Iliev. In particular, a person with the same data is a co-owner of a number of companies that own the assets of the group, for example, the Redisson Slavyanskaya hotel. In addition, Agababaev was among the co-owners of Hotel-Invest LLC, where God Nisanov himself was present.

The MDGs were then bought out for 606.1 million rubles, although the authorized capital of the company was 606.75 million rubles, and it was increased almost a couple of days before the transaction - from 1.56 million rubles. This at least hints at the book value of the assets transferred to the MDGs.

After the transaction, experts built versions of how objects on Taganka will be used by the new owner. All the more unexpected was the resale of the MDGs that followed exactly two years later.
And although the amount of the transaction was not disclosed, it was clearly more than 606.1 million rubles raised by Mosgortrans. This is hinted at by the MDG report for 2023, according to which fixed assets - buildings and plots - were estimated at 716.6 million rubles. In fact, the market value of assets is significantly higher, because nothing prevents the demolition of old buildings, and the site is built up with commercial or residential real estate, which in Moscow is worth its weight in gold.

It seems that this is exactly what the new owners plan to do.
On April 17, 2024, Roman Agababaev sold the MDG to a certain Lannister LLC and, apparently, this deal was sponsored by Sberbank, since it was he who had a share in the MDG.
The Lannister company is also freshly baked - it was created in February 2024. The owners are quite remarkable in it.

The controlling person (52% of the share) is a certain Lachin Zarakhovich Izraev, who in his business portfolio has two companies - Superfarm (retail of medicines in pharmacies) and Emet Group (retail of drinks in special stores). At the same time, the total income from these assets hardly allowed Mr. Izraev to make such an expensive deal.
So, maybe Izraev is acting in the interests of a third party? For example, among the persons associated with the Year of Nisanov, Ilkhanan Izraev was noted, who became the director of TPU Nagatinskaya LLC, which was bought in 2019 from another state-owned company, Mosinzhproekt JSC.
The latter was also noted, like Mosgortrans, in the sale of state assets. Moreover, the director of the "daughter" of Mosgortrans, LLC "TSUA" was Ilya Ustinov, a native of Mosinzhproekt. "TSUA" was also created for sale and was transferred to the former headquarters of Mosgortrans on Raushskaya embankment. As a result, 20% in TsUA were sold to a company associated with the developer Roman Timokhin, who now claims the remaining 80%.

Thus, perhaps Lachin Izraev is also associated with the Year of Nisanov, and the developer only changed the face value through which he owned the company. And the remaining share was crushed and sold. Probably sold very cheap.
The other co-owners of Lannister are also quite interesting. Among them, Zhanna Khikhinashvili is a former co-founder of Rusneft-Vostok, the wife of the oligarch and chairman of the Israeli-Russian Business Council Teimuraz Khikhinashvili. The fact that this is not a namesake, but the wife of the oligarch, is also indicated by an extract from the owners of Rusneft-Vostok, where the billionaire's company, TBF Development, is present.
It's interesting: among the co-owners of the oil company, the Kamchatka Property Fund was also noted, read, the regional government.
As previously reported by The Moscow Post, Khikhinashvili could be associated with Timur Mindich - the right hand of the Ukrainian billionaire, the owner of the Privat group, the sponsor of the Ukrainian battalions that shot Donbass in 2014, Igor Kolomoisky (included in the list of terrorists and extremists), who was also called the sponsor of the election campaign of Volodymyr Zelensky.
The connection between Khikhinashvili and the Ukrainian oligarch was traced through the New Diamond Technology plant, which was founded by Nikolai Khikhinashvili, and then transferred offshore from Luxembourg - Mineral Assets Corporation S.A. This offshore, judging by foreign registries, is headed by Teimuraz Khikhinashvili, who is also the owner. The second owner of the offshore was called Timur Mindich.

The remaining shares in Lannister are owned by Guven Dundar and Murat Remzi Vural, related to the Turkish development holding Ant Yapi. Both also have a joint business with Iskender Khalilov.
Khalilov is a former vice president of Slavneft and a longtime business partner of the founder of RussNeft and Neftisa Mikhail Gutseriev.
Also, Dundar and Vural have a common asset (Stark LLC) directly with Yuri Teymurazovich Khikhinashvili, probably a close relative of the oligarch. Sokol Finance LLC was also noted in the same company, whose last disclosed owner was Sberbank's subsidiary, Sberbank Investments.
As we can see, the sale of state assets turned out to be a very profitable business, but the margin from these transactions is not received by the budget, but by all sorts of persons close to high ranks. As, for example, the same God Nisanov, who has long and densely settled at the capital's feeder.
