thirty people were involved in this crime, which included. citizens of the russian federation and citizens of foreign countries. illegal mining of precious metal was carried out both in the territory of the trans-baikal and krasnoyarsk territories, the republic of khakassia, the irkutsk region, the republic of buryatia, the jewish autonomous areas. participants of the golden ops are different people with different positions in society and income. some admitted to committing a criminal offense, others did not, and some completely believed that they had not broken the law. we met with some of the defendants in the criminal case. sergei bogovin, a gold mining master from yakutia, was not arrested during the investigation; he confessed to gardening and is awaiting sentencing. in a conversation with us, he complained about the difficulties of working at the mine, but something needs to be done for the men who work

there, the fuel that you deliver, you feed there... to people and well, the aortization of the equipment itself, a lot of spare parts fly away at all these times, you need to pay money somehow, well, it’s not from your pocket, it’s not bottomless, so people. begins to look for some kind of loopholes to hand over this metal, this is how timur pliev appeared, like this, who is this, who is pliev? well , pliev is an ordinary person who was buying gold, for me that ’s what he is, he brought him gold, gave him gold, he didn’t give the money, that’s all, sergey, uh, approximately, how much gold did you take him, because we know that according to the case materials, there are more than 20 kg. 22 kg, is that right? well, yes, that’s what happened, then they confiscated this batch of gold from me. sergei bogovin is an optimist, he is sure that later after the sentence, in his new life

, he will deal with gold, of course, it’s clear that he should give it up, metal needs to be mined, if this is your calling, then you need to use it, so you’ll get caught again, why will i get caught, won't i get caught, i'll work... i will not engage in illegal activities and illegal mining, and this is the buyer temerlan pliev, trying to justify himself as best he can , i understand correctly that, based on the case materials, you admitted your guilt and cooperated with the investigation, well, in order to get there or a minimum sentence of some kind or conditional in order to receive a minimum sentence, but because i really realized, how many years have you been doing this for me, three years, and why, well, you lived in this verkhinina, as they call it, verkhinina, there is no more work, somewhere something - it was necessary

so to eat, it turned out this way, not on purpose, not purposefully, if you believe plievo, it turns out that the illegal gold business brought him mere pennies. in soviet times you would have been called a speculator, a speculator, yes, but now a businessman, now a businessman, yes, a golden businessman, why golden, well, did you know that we have an individual, so simply as a citizen you have no right to engage in purchasing i started selling gold , of course, well, i say, i realized, we earned a lot, yes, now in about 10 years, i’ll probably earn money, in money, in money, pennies, i i understand correctly, so count it, it will be 90,000, even if timerland is telling the truth, it turns out that from only one visit of sergei bogovin, he earned more than

600,000 rubles. let us remind you that bogovin brought 22 kg of gold bars, such pennies. another member of the criminal community, courier igor chernyak. an elderly man, he is clearly ashamed to sit in front of the lens of our video camera, how did you fall into gold, and how did you fall into gold, there is nothing to pay off loans , yes, i got loans, that’s why i worked, for any are you going to work at work, how long did you work like that, about a month and a half, you just got caught so quickly about what they were carrying in the glove compartment or what? or was everything hidden? no, i didn’t really hide the catch under the seat, right? how much did you carry? ordinary, what kind of parks were they? yes, they were different, they were different hangers,

well, you hanged 10 kg there, but within ten, and up to 10 kg of gold they carried. chernyak shows us his car, demonstrates where he hid the gold and addresses people like him as a courier... yes, how light it is, it’s not so light, it looks light, but at night it’s not sleep, you’re not going, you’re afraid, we’re going to zabaikalsk, the russian ministry of internal affairs on transport, material evidence in a criminal case, tens of kilograms of gold bars and tens of millions of rubles are stored here. during the search operations, more than 90

million rubles were seized. let's get them, show them this golden bloody money, here they are, yes, indeed, 90 million rubles. what about gold? gold , more than 50 kg of gold, well, here’s a bag here, wow, a bag of weights, there’s probably more than 20 kg, yes, there’s more than 20 kg in this bag. let's try to get, oh, these are the tiles of gold - these are clearly self-made and homemade ingots, they were clearly made at some mine, here's one even with a hologram of the author, someone got to the point, so we see who these sticks belong to , heavy, each one weighs one and a half kilograms.

let's go to the next room, here is that same golden jack, it's not an easy thing, and when the gold was even heavier there, show me what 's inside, well, outwardly it's an ordinary jack for a truck, yes, yes, outwardly ordinary, but one of the members of the criminal community, roman lopatin, used this device. this is where he hid the gold, this way it closes, it’s all in oil, plus packaging, all this was found in his car when he was detained on the way to the village of zabaikalsk, zabaikalsk, yes, that is, you would never think that this is gold, that this is a gold jack, one of the methods of concealment, it is difficult to say how much gold is seized in homemade traces by law enforcement officers. transbaikalia,

detention occurs almost every day, we we are moving to the expert department of the fsb of russia in the trans-baikal territory. these traces were seized at the border, they tried to take them out in a diesel locomotive, they were hidden, but... but your employees still found them, and they brought them to our laboratory, and where we examined them, did you really understand that it was gold, what grade? and here the sample is above 80% , that is, samples, of course they are all different, because they apparently have a different source of origin, they are here in all sorts of different forms, that is, they are most likely made different people, i look at it like this by their appearance, well, there will definitely be five kilograms here, no, here... of course, there is much more gold, here there are 36 kg, 36 kg, listen, but if

you translate this into money in rubles, well at that time it was about a quarter of a billion rubles, that is, 250,000 million rubles. the ingots are all different, but apparently, the miners have their own specific taiga standard, most are rectangular in shape, and in appearance they resemble a chocolate bar, only yellow. listen, well here is such a small bar of gold, how much does it weigh, i think it’s 700-800 grams , yes, that’s right, it weighs somewhere like that, well , look, i was wrong, but not that much, 873 g. yes, really , there is something for smugglers to risk, please, we are going to the south of the region, to the village

of zabaikalsk, to see how law enforcement officers identify smugglers, from here it’s a stone’s throw to neighboring manchuria, good weather, it can be seen with the naked eye, international checkpoint zabaikalsk, the largest in the country, for example, the railway crossing is currently moving daily: more than 46-48 trains, both in one direction and the other, as well as the zabaikalsk map, the automobile crossing, with its capacity of 280 cars per day, is currently moving more than 400, the record is that we have 739 transport services in both directions, checkpoint: open around the clock, like clockwork.

cargo is transported in both directions on multi-ton trucks, gold is also confiscated by customs officers and border guards with enviable consistency. after the end of the coronavirus pandemic, the flow of tourists has resumed. now customs officers are checking a group of foreigners. everything is fine here, there is no smuggling, are you not a smuggler? of course not, are you saying that these are just friends, a gift for ruskan friends. and tell me how you like russia russia do you like oh i love tourists from time to time also try to smuggle gold, most often in... customs officers recalled an episode when a tourist hid gold bars in the insoles of his shoes, they paid attention to him because unnatural gait, asked to take off his shoes,

inspected, this is what they found, four, four rectangular ingots, points, you see, now... the second insole. eight gold bars with a total weight of almost 2 kg were hidden in the insoles. but these, as customs officers say, are trifles; they try to hide the main contraband in heavy vehicles. in december of the twenty-second year , a car was traveling from russia on a cargo vehicle , and smuggled gold was discovered. the total weight was more than 26-7 kg, these are artisanal ingots that transported by drivers and which were hidden in a cache of transport means of international transportation. based on the results of the detection, a criminal case of smuggling was opened under article 226 of the criminal code of the russian federation. until recently

, it was much easier for smugglers to transfer illegal goods across the border; they just had to hide it well and try to prevent the sniffer dog from sniffing it out. today, an inspection complex has been deployed at the checkpoint. it's a kind of giant x-ray machine. us we were allowed to look inside and see how the process of detecting illegal cargo takes place. this kind of x-ray allows you to identify the place where, for example, gold is transported. yes, this one. complex, it is designed for this purpose to detect foreign investments, say, gold is a metal with a very high density; on an x-ray image, it will be distinguished by uncharacteristic darkening and a high degree of radiation absorption. have your employees ever discovered

gold here? we had a discovery at the end last year, that is, signs of a possible movement of gold were identified - in the cooling system of the semi-trailer and refrigerator , according to the results of the actual control that was carried out after, it was discovered, as far as i remember, 26 kg of gold, but if customs representatives are responsible for the most part for the transported cargo , then the border guards are for the people, at this checkpoint there are two directions, this is the passenger direction and the cargo direction, on average , more than seventy ... buses pass along the passenger direction, per day, per day, uh, and uh, about 2,000 people. more than 500 freight vehicles pass along the cargo route, and we move to the railway checkpoint, there are specifics of work and difficulties, but how

to check, for example, a train with coal, which has at least 70 cars, and here technology comes to the rescue, stationary inspection complex, but if there are wagons with scrap metal, then gold can only be found based on operational information, this is what happened last year, during the inspection of a foreign transport survey in a wheeled cart, a package was found in the technological hole. with yellow metal, as it turned out, gold, which they tried to illegally move across the state border, how much gold there was, more than 6 kg, in the second case also more than 6 kg in the support beam, in a technological hole where it is difficult to see, it was discovered by the inspection team groups, also gold over 6 kg.

the presence of contraband in one of the carriages of the train is usually known only to the drivers. by the way, this happened in one episode of the criminal activities this story is connected with the driver stanislav khandaev stanislav khandaev is one of the examples of railway workers who directly exported gold outside the russian federation by smuggling, well, functionally he was part of ragimkhanov’s subgroup, how much money did he receive per trip, you know, well, on average, about 10 kg, no less, well, accordingly it’s 8,000 rubles. we found stanislav khandaev directly. on the railway tracks, he was not arrested during the investigation, he continues to work, there is only one restriction: stanislav cannot travel abroad on his diesel locomotive. in a conversation with us, the driver took a peculiar position: i don’t know anything, i’m not involved in anything. how did you get into such an incomprehensible,

not uninteresting, ugly situation? well, how could i, i don’t know, nothing, i didn’t end up anywhere, didn’t end up? no, but a criminal case was opened against you, i also don’t know anything, you don’t know anything, that is, i don’t know anything, i didn’t see anything, yes, no, okay, but you were involved in gold, no, of course, you’re not very gold transported, no, again, you you consider yourself completely innocent and innocent. i don’t know at all, that is, you have nothing to do with gold at all, you didn’t receive money from anyone, no, no, never ever, no, there are four more drivers like stanislav khandaev in the criminal case, they have something to hide, after all , the illegal earnings of railway workers amounted to hundreds of thousands of rubles, just for one trip, the investigation of the criminal case of the organized criminal community in transbaikalia is in full swing. according to security officials, no one will escape responsibility. 16 members of the criminal community

were detained and taken into custody. a preventive measure was taken against twelve defendants in the form of a written undertaking not to leave in accordance with proper behavior. one suspect is under house arrest. according to preliminary estimates, the total volume of precious metal acquired through criminal means exceeded 94 kg. its cost is estimated at 370 million rubles. 42 kg of gold worth about 200 million rubles were taken out of our country by criminals. 52 kg were seized by the police. according to available information, the leader criminal community invited three foreigners to participate in the criminal business. they organized uninterrupted supplies of natural resources to the trans-baikal territory. gold from the republics of buryatia, tva and yakutia, krasnoyarsk territory, irkutsk, amur regions and the jewish autonomous region.

subsequently, the precious metal was melted into gold bars, which were subsequently exported abroad. the story of exposing the largest international criminal community seems to have come to an end. most of the members of the organized crime group were arrested and will be brought to justice, but we must not forget. their earnings amount to millions, and the maximum fine they can be given is 3,000 rubles. mining methods are very different, deposits are a wide variety of ore objects, whole factories are being built, whole extraction production. it’s simpler, of course, and faster for all the placer gold, they come

, remove the top layer, get to the gold, yes, and they literally wash it in the warm summer seasons, when there is no water, and in fact they get the gold itself, now the gold fund of the gold deposit in edge there are more than 460 deposits, of which about 270 have not yet been provided for use. to see the cosmic landscapes that careless subsoil users leave behind, you need to drive 200 kilometers away from the brush and turn into the taiga. there, among centuries-old trees, next to the beds of small rivers, you will definitely come across territories that have been devastated for many kilometers, where

gold mining operations once stood. here they are, such regional locals call the taiga desert, of course, over time nature will take its toll, and these lifeless the spaces will again be covered with dense forest, but

this will not happen soon. this is how we saw the story of the liquidation of a golden organized crime community. this was our investigation from the trans-baikal territory, only you can draw conclusions, see you on

the tv channel, russia-24. let's translate from clerical to understandable, everything is not

so scary if there are instructions, hello, i'm boris sakilov, and i'm oleg stepanov and we. creators of the russia 2062 project of the headquarters of free thought. together with experts , we are discussing how we can develop the russia of the future
