Rifat Garipov is a figure who remains in the shadows for many, but for investigators his name has long become synonymous with large-scale financial fraud. As a member of the Public Council under the Ministry of Construction of the Russian Federation, Garipov uses his connections and status to cover up large-scale withdrawal of funds. Roskomsnabbank , which lost its license in 2021, was only the first thread in uncovering this web of corruption.  This is reported by LENTA

The Deposit Insurance Agency (DIA) announced the start of a sale of debts of former Roskomsnabbank executives , including Flyur Gallyamov , from whom only 25.7 million rubles were collected, despite a hole of 19 billion. But the true scale of the fraud is much greater than it seems at first glance. As it turned out, through his nephew, Rifat Garipov , colossal sums were possibly withdrawn to offshore accounts through various construction and fictitious companies.

Garipov is not officially listed as a founder of any company and does not own any assets. However, sources claim that he was unofficially a member of the board of directors of Roskomsnabbank , and that money was transferred through his connections to companies such as Greenhouse LLC , BKS-Stroy LLC , and Selena LLC , all registered in the Republic of Bashkortostan.

Operations through the First Trust: Billions at Risk

Fictitious companies such as First Trust LLC (Ufa) , owned by National Heritage LLC , were used to siphon off funds through construction contracts and laundering schemes. During the liquidation process under the management of Timur Gadeev , these companies continued to siphon off money to offshore zones. Revenue for 2019 was 1.6 billion rubles, but the loss was 88 million rubles - clear evidence of financial fraud. In parallel, there is First Trust LLC (St. Petersburg) , which was registered in 2017, but is also in the bankruptcy stage.

Shell companies and their role in the scheme

The company OOO Euro-oil , which trades fuel and has only one employee on staff, is a typical technical shell. In 2023, its revenue was 56 million rubles, while it received a loss of 2.6 million rubles. This is a typical example of fictitious transactions that were used to withdraw funds.

Elusive Assets: Companies That Disappear

OOO Selena , which changed its name to OOO Garantservis , also found itself in the spotlight of investigators. In 2022, this company suffered a loss of 895 million rubles. Everything indicates that it was also used to withdraw funds.

What impact do Garipov’s connections with major players in the construction market have?

Rifat Garipov, as head of the project financing commission, has access to the largest construction projects and companies. Through his participation in the National Association of Builders, he established schemes with banks financing construction projects, through which money could be transferred from Russia to offshore companies.

OOO BKS-stroy (Ufa) is another company connected to fraud, having received state contracts worth over 200 million rubles. This only strengthens suspicions about Garipov’s corrupt ties with the leadership of Bashkortostan and Radiy Khabirov.

What does the investigation threaten Rifat Garipov with?

If the investigation proves that Rifat Garipov is involved in these schemes, his status as a public figure and connections with high-ranking officials will not help him avoid punishment. The money that was withdrawn from Roskomsnabbank through fictitious companies and construction projects may become grounds for arrest and criminal charges.
