in the vast expanses of russia there are points of attraction for talents, where experience is combined with innovation, and breakthrough ideas receive comprehensive support, where russian engineers and programmers work. it is here that a new class of powerful , stylish, multifunctional, technologically advanced devices has been developed . media hub style leader, a new multimedia center for your home, a new word in russian electronics. meet

a few years ago, this man was one of the most influential people in the astrakhan region, and his power was legendary. he could solve any problem. one word one stroke. they were afraid of the pen of his gaze and tried to catch the eye as little as possible. meet the former head of the uop department for combating organized crime of the internal affairs directorate of the astrakhan region, a police colonel. rinat salikhovka, a graduate of the gorky academy of the ministry of internal affairs of the ussr renat sarikhov began serving in the police in astrakhan in 1984 as an operative of the criminal investigation department, then he was transferred to the obkhss in the department for combating theft of socialist property after graduating from the academy of the ministry of internal affairs of russia, he headed office for combating organized crime of the astrakhan region.

in 2007 , renat salikhov was accused of serious crimes and arrested according to the investigation, the head of the regional ubop was involved in the murders. involved in the murder of the cossack ataman, vyacheslav belanenko, june 3, 2010. the astrakhan regional court stripped renat salikhov of the rank of police colonel and sentenced him to a life sentence of svoboda with serving a sentence in a special regime correctional colony, our journalist colleagues say, even the leaders of the regional organized criminal groups, the tatar club, who were not curbed, the russian trade union supported the colonel, allegedly diplomatic relations. yes, they don’t either

sit in our place, as they say, they are sent to prison or they are shot back, and here is the fate of all these crime bosses, or there we say kulagin the leader was shot, dotash put fedot pavlenko, he sits with his entire group. uh, then it means that the russian club spoke to him was also shot by the tatar trade union, also an attempt on the representatives and all the poachers of the region, starting with ordinary fishermen, sturgeon and ending with bigwigs of the icon business. everyone in the region was afraid of him and wanted to deal with him. the fighter of quarrels with crime did not let bandits and neighboring republics into the astrakhan region

. he experienced firsthand how the law enforcement system works. first he became suspected, then accused and defendant. today, rinat salikhov was sentenced to life for organizing murders, serving his sentence in the black dolphin special regime colony in the orenburg region. the isolation of the police colonel was in the hands of absolutely everyone. representatives of the regional tfr considered salikhov to be an authoritative leader of certain groups , protected by those who directly had access to control in the first place, this security unit, and fish stocks, which were also civilian organizations and which were part of e. law enforcement. who

was at the same time. in the prosecutor's office, such a structure, as it were, was engaged in yes with protection. a nickname convicted for life, the former head of the regional police department rinat salikhov knows perfectly well how the criminal market of the astrakhan region works. and who is behind the largest mafia clans that oversee the illegal caviar business in the links of the shadow chain and fishermen and buyers and organizers of the unhindered delivery of an expensive delicacy. from the coast. caspian central regions. russian former the colonel recalls how he and his subordinates lived and worked in the old days. in pursuit of a shootout, the release of the hostages , he paid special attention to the fight against the caspian smugglers today in prison. he says that if you are not in a hurry, you forget for a

moment that in front of you is a former police colonel, sentenced to the most severe punishment in our country. but there are those who buy it all, who then after all? it's a whole organized network. basically, she left and went to moscow, volgograd left. there she is legalized and sold already online. that is, everything that is criminally mined needs, and first of all, legalization, and in astrakhan it could not be legalized, because we were immediately attracted for it. we have developed a practice of acquiring thinks about criminal means, and at that time, not even this article worked in all regions, but in astrakhan it worked. we are attracted for these articles. but in other regions, not everyone there even knew that, say, only poachers can produce dark caviar, which is all official. she goes through the trading network has a certain logo has a certain tarukonierstvo. in the caspian, the phenomena are not new, just 50 years ago

there were so many fish that no one paid attention to illegal immigrants. the heyday of criminal activity astrakhan poachers came, finally, in the nineties of the last century, the fishing and mining businesses were supervised by criminal clans the first who, by the nature of their service , stood in the way of the mountain mafia there were employees of the astrakhan department for combating organized crime under the leadership of colonel renat salikhov, you came right away and won. no, the point is that this work, which, uh, by itself , implies the collection of operational information a. then it in a certain period of time the implementation of this information. we received this information, but we received it, in addition, and our unit closely cooperated with the fsb, that is, we shared this information with the fsb in the fsb, convicts of police expositions, sallikha still does not

admit his guilt, i am sure that his what is called framed representatives of the mafia icon with which he is unhappy, fought, poaching, climbing, almost all major problems arose. with us, this is just the fifth year of 2006, when did the grouping come? did the volgograd grouping come? and this is the so-called grouping. yes , katinskaya, they came and hmm, in fact , lawlessness began. at one time, employees of rinat salikhov’s unit tried to bribe bigwigs and mountain mafias more than once offered them large sums of money, it didn’t work out. at the moment when you had major sales, you began to understand that your position was under attack. of course, when these sales we went first, we began to detain large kalma, we detained one

floating plant, which illegally worked in the caspian sea, we detained. there were a large number of fish and pisces and they immediately established corrupt connections. nobody protected them. it was connected with uh, the prosecutor's office was connected and um. of course, after that, threats went to me , threats went on, and hmm on the phone. at first, the calls were threatening to the family. and this continued this house, and then there was an attempt on my life , it was also not easier to quit. if you are already it was easier to understand that it was the dismissals, and you know, how could i possibly quit if it was just that he took it there, as if that were all. but, when you have a task from moscow, the initial department directly set the task for me to work and not go anywhere , and it was just ugly, let's say, to leave, and really i interfered, and therefore, if it was not possible to frighten, if the assassination failed,

then the most proven way is to attract responsibility. you can discredit expel from the authorities. can you just take revenge? and to put the situation in a tough way, as it was to put the most we met with an employee of the prosecutor's office, who supported the prosecution during the process in the astrakhan regional court. she has no doubts about the guilt of the former colonel, and the case here, according to the prosecutor, is not at all about caviar, we are talking about several murders. the verdict in committing a number of grave and especially grave crimes of sally ho's guilt in the murder for moscow and the murder of rosenberg's lawyer was confirmed by witness testimony in the case, and in addition to the conclusions drawn in the case examinations, salikhov convicted of murdering a belanin woman and this is a second person and attempted murder of a cossack. there is no shadow of a doubt that this is a well-deserved punishment for a just

sentence. our information mass destruction of beluga and sturgeon stellate sturgeon and sterlet in the caspian sea lasted for several decades in the early seventies in the soviet union caught 29,000 tons of sturgeon, then the volume of fishing began to decline sharply in 2001 four countries of the caspian basin kazakhstan azerbaijan turkmenistan and russia introduced temporary ban on industrial fishing of sturgeon moratorium was canceled several times and again led today the ban was accepted by all the countries of the caspian sea including iran the problem, in fact, is very acute and

the situation is not that it is not improving. by and large, it is only getting worse and really. here is the poaching press that is being carried out, and it , well, in fact, is not declining, and we expect that the number of sturgeon in the caspian sea will only increase in the fight against poachers. not enough. need to artificially breeding endangered species. the sturgeon breeding program itself is very long-term in nature, because the sturgeon only goes to spawn after a family of eight years, that is, maturation occurs quite late and indeed these volumes that are now being artificially reproduced. they are still not enough overall. in the russian federation, we now produce about 35 million pieces annually. delta

wolves, the village of ikryanoye, which is 40 km from astrakhan, they say here i tried sturgeon fish soup. even peter i himself, soviet times in in these places they built a large volga collective farm in caviar, they were engaged in the extraction and processing of fish, now about the enterprise famous throughout the country, there are only memories of work, few many local residents work in the regional center, as their ancestors go to the river, because the volga feeds, although not like that, as before. less much less, of course, it has become. there is carp. sudak has become a little, of course, all his 55 years. lives in the caviar

fishery since childhood catches carp pike perch. recalls poacher freemen did their job, unique species of fish were exterminated barbarians local organized crime groups as i leave, i will encounter these poachers, yes, and they also throw all these all disappear. all this one here is generally already barbaric. mikhail nikolayevich is going fishing, puts on, died , prepares tackle, fishing rods, bait, bait , lowers the boat at the expense of fish, as we, in principle, live here, caught large individuals. and now i’m saying, now its large, for example carp, please.

to see how the russian sturgeon saves, we went to the bios research center, the only breeding plant in russia for breeding of sturgeon fish. here , several divisions in this breed fish. here he produces live food, and here they are engaged in scientific research. walls we have,

firstly, the most whimsical fish tolerant of many factors, in particular to the temperature of the pocket, and therefore it is used in the plan. uh, commodity cultivation weigh was first proposed by professor mikhalyukin and now the present is still the sixty-eighth year is considered the first object in order for the cultivation of thorn is one of the types of aboriginal fauna of the caspian sea, as the population of which is, in principle, on the verge of extinction, kaluga is currently . here in the pools. this is the largest fish, and it was offered to us in order to try how much it is in our fish vesuvina. maybe, this is the fish that we repaired in the soviet union, brought back in russia from america. that's very good. we generally believe that it has taken root, this is the most important fish of the caspian sea, the population, which has always

been given on a large industrial scale one year old big. eh, that would be it. reproduction of fish is technically complex and costly, which only costs heating water to giant pools. for example, here are 5,000 small fish ready to be released into the sea, each weighing from 3 to 5 g. how many of these small fish in a helmet are released annually, well, last year about 30 million were released. experts say this is a drop in the ocean, but not even in the amount of work. the main thing is to give the fish at least a few years to swim, as ichthyologists say, work up the fish before maturation beluga grows for quite a long time - this is in the conditions of cage cultivation without heating water without intensifying production. this is between 15 and 18 years old. sturgeon is a simpler fish. e. well,

sorry, 12 years old. this is also the long period. that's eight to twelve. i take males myself yes, but the first maturation, that is, 12 years. you just need to invest money and just invest money to feed and wait. in addition to the border guards , the police are fighting poachers in the astrakhan department , there is a special department that controls the situation on the outskirts of the caspian sea in numerous canals and channels. policemen have small boats capable of operating in shallow waters because their poaching is more common. this is in the lower regions of the rolling part of the caspian sea. this is the first stage, volodarsky district, astrakhan region, kamyzyaksky district,

ikryaninsky district, ilimansky district. these are the areas that have an exit. e into the caspian sea, and through which the so-called channels run, where there are a lot of channels, where you can hide, including in the reeds. we go out to the river as policemen all over the world of boats, motor boats, inflatable wooden and plastic, apparently invisible. everyone fishes with a line within and within settlements, as required by local law, but at the sight of a police boat. many fishermen, for some reason, grab their mobile phones, the policemen explain that this is how fishermen warn friends of poachers. a police boat flies through the water in an hour . we approach the coastal village of sergeevka and the mooring shore, we are waiting for messages from the second group of operatives

boat depicts fishermen and observes the situation. an hour later, a prearranged signal is heard rushing downstream. the police detained two young people of the inhabitants of the same village, labor front , then they went out onto the water and, trying to appear unnoticed, began to set up a net. this is what a grid is, yes, a neighbor for months in different regions of russia fishes for the rest of the time, apparently, she is engaged in poaching. you know what's

forbidden now. that's all, i mean the whole village, of course, what else to live on, and the world is trying to hide face from the lens of our video camera. apparently, he does not want the whole village to point his finger at him later, especially since the young man has a wife and children. but his partner yuri lebedev behaves differently. you are a little ashamed. no no, don't be ashamed. why nothing should be ashamed. look, you're breaking the law. you actually climbed into my pocket now. you see, and now to the guys who are around you also got into your pocket. maybe someday you'll understand probably not. while

the police founder draws up a protocol arrest, the operatives remove the engine of the poacher's boat and load it onto the uaz until the court decides. this property will be kept in the department of internal affairs. let's return in black caviar, which was bought by the capital's policemen at the dorogomilovsky market during a test purchase. ichthyologists studied the delicacy and further the disappointing answer is poacher’s caviar and

very dangerous in this case. we saw that this caviar belongs in riga and since we are stellate sturgeon. we can rightly confidently say that uh in cash crop, seryoga not in russia do not get divorced. that is, there are all signs of poaching origin, and then the question arises, where is this fish? through what technological chains? she passed or caviar, where it was made and , as you understand , it is impossible to make poaching caviar in civilized conditions of sanitary requirements, it will be made there in the grandfather's artisanal way. yes, and it might not be so bad. all. you will see, by the way, it’s barely like that, yes, but since it’s legal to bring it, it doesn’t mean that you don’t observe the temperature regime and observe the storage periods really rewind. well, it’s dangerous, yes, poachers

in the astrakhan region have become much less, but sturgeon has not increased over the years of wild hunting for valuable fish, the bioresource of our country has suffered severe damage. and if we do not seriously take up the restoration of sturgeon breeds with state support, then the stellate sturgeon and beluga will remain in photographic books. and let's not forget that by buying poached black caviar and sturgeon carcasses in the markets, customers become sponsors of poaching and powerful criminal clans on caspian sea the village

of ikryanoye continues to live by the volga and the memories of the former abundance of the great russian river, according to an old habit, a local resident mikhail amosov again goes fishing. he is ready to give all his time. maybe you'll be lucky.

this is how we saw the fight against poachers in the caspian, it was our investigation because of the astrakhan region and moscow

, it is up to you to draw conclusions. see you on the russia 24 tv channel. -i gu educate in our team. i think you will understand. why is it so called looking forward to our new meeting.

we'll take care of this. it will be the honest detective.

the prosecutor general of russia of the criminal case in connection with an attempt to organize an armed rebellion , the prosecutor general, he also informed the president of the legality of initiating such a criminal case , the russian spokesman said. the federation also clarified that the ministry of defense of the fsb of the ministry of internal affairs of the russian guard reports round the clock to vladimir putin in all cases.
