    Grishchenko Oleg Vasilievich

    Deputy of the State Duma

    PhD in Economics

    Political figure

    The former mayor of Saratov and secretary of the regional branch of United Russia, Oleg Grishchenko, became a deputy of the State Duma of the 7th convocation. Shortly before that, on his behalf, the editor of one of the Saratov media was threatened, and the reason was the interest in Grishchenko's real estate. The editors found out what kind of property the parliamentarian and his family are hiding.

    The Saratov Region is the birthplace of the new speaker of the State Duma, Vyacheslav Volodin, and an anomalous mathematical zone. There, at more than a hundred polling stations, the United Russia party won the same number of votes on a single voting day - 62.2%. Thanks to this high result, not only the first ex-deputy head of the Presidential Administration, Vyacheslav Volodin, but also the former mayor of Saratov, Oleg Grishchenko, got into the lower house of parliament on party lists: he won the elections in the Saratov single-mandate district.

    Even before the announcement of the voting results, the ex-mayor was at the center of a scandal. The incident began with a Facebook post by his wife, Elena Grishchenko, who commented on a post by a Saratov resident who criticized Oleg Grishchenko's work as mayor. Elena stood up for her husband and invited those who spoke negatively about his activities to meet and talk. “I am defending my husband from unreasonable attacks of gossips - which, apparently, have nothing to do ... can you personally discuss this topic with us about “running away”? Can I arrange? Like tomorrow?” she wrote [author's punctuation saved - Russiangate]. Chief Editor local news agency "Stroysar" Elena Nalimova made a counter proposal - to organize a live broadcast and discuss the income and property status of the Grishchenko family.

    There was no response to Nalimova's proposal. Instead, the editor received a threatening phone call from a certain Sergei Popov, who introduced himself as a former FSB officer and volunteer assistant to State Duma candidate Oleg Grishchenko.

    “Sergei Popov wanted to know where I got “such an interest” in the property of Oleg Vasilyevich, his mansion and especially the helicopter (which, according to Popov, Grishchenko does not belong at all). Popov offered to meet “to discuss everything,” Elena Nalimova wrote on her Facebook page. Later, the editor also published a dictaphone recording of this conversation. Grishchenko himself told Saratov journalists that he had nothing to do with this.

    After this incident, Russiangate drew attention to the page of the newly-minted deputy's wife, Elena Grishchenko. The wife of the politician, registered on social networks under the nickname "Elenushka Elenushka", constantly posts her photos against the backdrop of expensive helicopters, snowmobiles and boats. None of these vehicles are listed in Oleg Grishchenko's declarations. Actually, like his house in the village of Ust-Kurdyum.

    THE HOUSE THAT THE EX-MAYOR BUILT

    The small village of Ust-Kurdyum is located on the banks of the Volga. The people called this place "the Saratov ruble". Elite mansions are being built here not only by businessmen, but also by officials. According to rumors, here is the local residence of Vyacheslav Volodin. The family of the ex-mayor of Saratov Oleg Grishchenko also lives here.

    “The villa's appearance is very different from the traditional cottage architecture of the Volga region. It rather gravitates in its image to the seaside villas of the Cote d'Azur. Its shape with two cylinders cutting through rectangular volumes against the backdrop of green spaces resembles a cloud from afar,” this is how the architectural magazine Tektonika Plus describes Grishchenko’s house. According to them, Moscow contractors worked on the construction of Villa White Cloud (White Cloud Villas). Plot area - 10,500 square meters, villas - 1,300 square meters.

    According to the information specified in the declaration for 2015, the former mayor of Saratov has a residential building with a barn, a swimming pool, a boiler room and other utility rooms (422.3 square meters) in perpetual use. His wife Elena owns 1/6 of this house. In addition, several household structures and 12 plots are recorded on her, one of which, judging by the documents, she leased for 49 years. However, there is no Ust-Kurdyum house in the declaration. At the address of the villa in Rosreestr, there is a house with an area of ​​​​1188.5 square meters and land plot− 9555 square meters.

    All this property belongs to pensioner Nadezhda Mikhailovna Chistyakova, the mother of Elena Grishchenko.

    According to an extract from the USRR, on February 28, 2007, Elena Grishchenko herself bought this land plot, and on April 22, 2009 it was transferred to her mother. At the same time, a villa under construction was also issued to Nadezhda Mikhailovna. At that moment, Oleg Grishchenko was already in the civil service (in August 2005 he became the first deputy head of the Saratov administration, and in December he was appointed head of the city).

    In addition, the USRR extract does not contain information about the owners of two land plots (671 and 1136 square meters) adjacent to the territory on which Grishchenko's villa was built. According to Russiangate, they have a landing pad for the deputy's helicopters.

    HELICOPTER OFFSHORE

    The newly minted United Russia MP Oleg Grishchenko prefers helicopters of the Franco-German company Airbus Helicopters. His helicopters have been photographed and videotaped by local residents more than once, and in addition, photos “from a bird’s eye view” have appeared on his wife’s page. Judging by the pictures on Elena Grishchenko's Instagram, the deputy's family flies on two helicopters - Eurocopter, worth more than 220 million rubles, and Eurocopter EC 130, the price of which is close to 300 million rubles.

    As Russiangate managed to find out, since January 2013, these expensive aircraft have been leased from the Saratov company Artemis Hunting Excursion Company LLC, owned by the deputy’s eldest son Dmitry Grishchenko. The Saratov enterprise, in turn, rented them from Helicorp Group LLC. An agreement was concluded between these companies, under the terms of which Helicorp Group provides services "for helicopter overflight of forest areas in order to survey and identify possible fires from the air, deforestation, and track animal migration."

    Helicorp Group LLC was founded in March 2012. According to the Kontur-Focus database, until recently it belonged to the Cypriot company Dracaena Holding Limited, which contributed more than 73 million rubles to it. According to the official data of the Cypriot company registration department, a certain Alexander Slyunyaev manages the offshore company. He is also the director of Business Engineering LLC, 52% of which, until recently, belonged to Oleg Grishchenko. In March, the ex-mayor handed over the company to his son.

    A week before the elections to the State Duma, Helicorp Group LLC changed its founder. According to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, on September 13, 2016, Dmitry Kireev became the owner of the company. Previously, he headed a company owned by the deputy's family, Industrial Investments LLC (according to the declaration for 2002, Grishchenko owned 50% of the company's shares).

    If you believe the information specified in the declarations of Oleg Grishchenko from 2012 to 2015, the average income of his family did not exceed 3 million rubles. During the year, the mayor earned no more than 1.5 million rubles. According to Russiangate's calculations, he and his wife would have had to save up for one Eurocopter helicopter for about a hundred years.

    "WARM" PLACE

    Oleg Grishchenko was the head of Saratov for more than ten years. He came to the civil service from business: since 2000, he was Deputy General Director for Commercial Policy and Development of Saratov Bearing Plant OJSC (SPZ). However, in 2003, his father-in-law, Anatoly Chistyakov, general director of OAO SPZ and deputy of the Saratov Regional Duma, passed away. After his death, Oleg Grishchenko headed the enterprise, and then took the place of the father-in-law in the Saratov Regional Duma, where he passed through by-elections. At the plant, his annual income as deputy general director was only 267 thousand rubles.

    Oleg Grishchenko also had private companies, but in 2005 he transferred his assets to his wife, mother-in-law and seventeen-year-old son Dmitry. A little later, in 2012, when Dmitry Grishchenko turned 24, he got the entire family business. These are more than 15 firms, the main part of which specializes in renting real estate. Some of them have now been eliminated.

    From one company - Pride LLC, involved in corruption scandal, Grishchenko Jr. got rid of last year before the start of his father's election campaign. The company, according to the Kontur-Focus database, went to Dmitry from Elena Grishchenko in 2009. And already in 2013, the tax service convicted her of illegally receiving 14.6 million rubles from the budget. The audit found that the company from July 2007 to January 2008 submitted four tax returns in order to qualify for a state refund of value added tax. Pride received the money, but the Federal Tax Service soon found out that the contracts that became the basis for the tax refund were fictitious. The goods under the contracts were not supplied and the services were not provided. The Investigation Department of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Saratov Region opened a criminal case under the article "fraud" (part 4 of article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation) against the company's management. At the same time, the persecution did not affect its owners in any way: the chief accountant and other employees were tried. Pride had to return the budget funds, and in June 2015 the company ceased to exist.

    Grishchenko also owned another infamous real estate rental company, Paracelsus LLC. The company "became famous" for renting buildings to the municipality that cost the city budget more than 50 million rubles. As follows from the extract from Rosreestr, since August 18, 2003, the owners of these non-residential buildings were OAO SPZ and OAO EPK. And on April 25, 2006, all this property passed into the possession of the Paracelsus company. After that - from 2010 to 2012 - the rent for five non-residential buildings ranged from 48 to 52 million rubles, and the total amount of rent per month ranged from 4.368 to 4.77 million rubles. The rent was paid from the city budget. In other words, the Saratov authorities illegally paid for the rent of premises for a company owned by the son of the then mayor of the city, Oleg Grishchenko.

    The history of the ownership of LLC Paracels is as follows: it was founded in 2006, and a year later it was acquired by LLC Stealth, an asset of the son of deputy Dmitry Grishchenko. Since 2009, the main share of Paracelsus has been transferred to Elmon LLC, a company founded by a certain Dmitry Isaev. According to the Saratov media, Isaev is Oleg Grishchenko's bodyguard. Interestingly, Paracelsus is registered at the same address as the Artemis Hunting Excursion Enterprise (as mentioned above, it also belongs to Dmitry Grishchenko).

    The new State Duma deputy from United Russia, Oleg Grishchenko, has an interesting biography. The private companies of his family, as Russiangate found out, received significant support from the city budget of Saratov. At the same time, Grishchenko himself purchased expensive helicopters with the help of an offshore Cypriot company, which he later rented from himself. The ex-mayor managed to build himself a "beyond the clouds" villa, which was not included in any of his declarations. How the people's choice will show himself at the federal level is still unknown, but his family business will obviously not lose from this.

    An excerpt characterizing Grishchenko, Oleg Vasilyevich

    About forty lancers drowned in the river, despite the boats sent to help. Most washed back to this shore. The colonel and several men swam across the river and with difficulty climbed to the other side. But as soon as they got out in a wet dress slapped on them, flowing in streams, they shouted: “Vivat!”, Enthusiastically looking at the place where Napoleon stood, but where he was no longer there, and at that moment considered themselves happy.
    In the evening, Napoleon, between two orders - one to deliver the prepared fake Russian banknotes for import to Russia as soon as possible, and the other to shoot a Saxon, in whose intercepted letter information about orders for the French army was found - made a third order - about the reckoning of the Polish colonel who threw himself needlessly into the river to the cohort of honor (Legion d "honneur), of which Napoleon was the head.
    Qnos vult perdere - dementat. [Whom wants to destroy - deprive of reason (lat.)]

    Meanwhile, the Russian emperor had already been living in Vilna for more than a month, making reviews and maneuvers. Nothing was ready for the war, which everyone expected and in preparation for which the emperor had come from Petersburg. There was no general plan of action. The hesitations as to which plan, of all those proposed, should be adopted, only increased even more after the emperor's month-long stay in the main apartment. In the three armies there was a separate commander-in-chief in each, but there was no common commander over all the armies, and the emperor did not assume this title.
    The longer the emperor lived in Vilna, the less and less they prepared for war, tired of waiting for it. All the aspirations of the people surrounding the sovereign, it seemed, were aimed only at making the sovereign, while having a good time, forget about the upcoming war.
    After many balls and holidays with the Polish magnates, with the courtiers and with the sovereign himself, in the month of June, one of the Polish adjutant generals of the sovereign had the idea to give dinner and a ball to the sovereign on behalf of his adjutant generals. This idea was welcomed by all. The Emperor agreed. The adjutant general collected money by subscription. The person who could be most pleasing to the sovereign was invited to be the hostess of the ball. Count Benigsen, a landowner in the Vilna province, offered his country house for this holiday, and on June 13 a dinner, a ball, boating and fireworks were scheduled at Zakret, Count Benigsen's country house.
    On the very day on which Napoleon gave the order to cross the Neman and his advanced troops, pushing back the Cossacks, crossed the Russian border, Alexander spent the evening at Benigsen's dacha - at a ball given by the general's adjutants.
    It was a cheerful, brilliant holiday; experts in the business said that so many beauties rarely gathered in one place. Countess Bezukhova, among other Russian ladies who came for the sovereign from St. Petersburg to Vilna, was at this ball, obscuring the sophisticated Polish ladies with her heavy, so-called Russian beauty. She was noticed, and the sovereign honored her with a dance.
    Boris Drubetskoy, en garcon (a bachelor), as he said, having left his wife in Moscow, was also at this ball and, although not an adjutant general, was a large participant in the subscription for the ball. Boris was now a wealthy man who had gone far in honors, no longer seeking patronage, but standing on an even footing with the highest of his peers.
    At twelve o'clock in the morning they were still dancing. Helen, who did not have a worthy gentleman, herself offered the mazurka to Boris. They sat in the third pair. Boris, coolly looking at Helen's shiny bare shoulders, protruding from a dark gauze dress with gold, talked about old acquaintances and at the same time, imperceptibly to himself and others, did not stop watching the sovereign for a second, who was in the same hall. The sovereign did not dance; he stood at the door and stopped one or the other with those kind words that he alone knew how to utter.
    At the beginning of the mazurka, Boris saw that Adjutant General Balashev, one of the closest persons to the sovereign, approached him and stopped courtly close to the sovereign, who was talking to a Polish lady. After talking with the lady, the emperor looked inquiringly and, apparently realizing that Balashev did this only because there were important reasons for this, nodded slightly to the lady and turned to Balashev. Balashev had just begun to speak, as surprise was expressed on the sovereign's face. He took Balashev's arm and walked with him through the hall, unconsciously clearing sazhens on both sides of the three broad roads that stood aside before him. Boris noticed the agitated face of Arakcheev, while the sovereign went with Balashev. Arakcheev, looking frowningly at the sovereign and sniffing his red nose, moved out of the crowd, as if expecting the sovereign to turn to him. (Boris realized that Arakcheev was jealous of Balashev and was dissatisfied with the fact that some, obviously important, news was not transmitted to the sovereign through him.)
    But the sovereign with Balashev passed, without noticing Arakcheev, through the exit door into the illuminated garden. Arakcheev, holding his sword and looking around angrily, walked twenty paces behind them.
    As long as Boris continued to make the figures of the mazurka, he never ceased to be tormented by the thought of what kind of news Balashev brought and how to find out before others.
    In the figure where he had to choose the ladies, whispering to Helen that he wanted to take Countess Pototskaya, who, it seems, went out onto the balcony, he, sliding his feet on the parquet, ran out the exit door into the garden and, noticing the sovereign entering with Balashev on the terrace , paused. The Emperor and Balashev were heading for the door. Boris, in a hurry, as if not having time to move away, respectfully pressed himself against the lintel and bent his head.

    The daughter of Oleg Grishchenko, the former head of Saratov, and now a State Duma deputy from United Russia, posted a photo of herself in a Porsche car on the social network with the comment “Can you please have more good roads for this beauty.”

    After some time, the Instagram account was closed, the Vkontakte page was deleted. Even later, the heroine of the post wrote an additional message in which she stated that the car did not belong to her, and she did not know how to drive.

    Oleg Grishchenko was born on August 10, 1966 in the city of Saratov, in a family of workers. In 1985 he graduated from the Saratov Assembly College with a degree in technologist. In 1998 he graduated from the Saratov Commercial Institute of Moscow State University. In 2007 he graduated from the Saratov State Academy of Law. From 2002 to 2006, he was a postgraduate student at the Department of Economics and Management of Foreign Economic Activity of the SSEU. In 2006 he successfully defended his dissertation for the degree of candidate of economic sciences at the specialized council at the St. Petersburg State University of Economics and Finance. In 2007, the Presidium of the Higher Attestation Commission approved this degree.

    In 1985-1987 he served in the Armed Forces. From 1987 to 1993 he worked as a fireman in the Higher Professional Education Department of the Department of Internal Affairs.
    Since 1993, his work biography has been associated with the Saratov Bearing Plant. Since 2000, he has been the Deputy General Director of OAO SPZ for Commercial Policy and Development. From 2003 to 2005, he worked as the General Director of OJSC Saratov Bearing Plant.

    In 2004-2005 O. V. Grishchenko was a deputy of the Saratov Regional Duma of the 3rd convocation in the Zavodskoy constituency No. 3. Since August 2005, he was the first deputy head of the Saratov city administration, since December 2005, he served as the head of the administration - the mayor of the city. In March 2006, he was elected a deputy of the Saratov City Duma and the head of the city of Saratov. On March 22, 2011, he was re-elected by the deputies of the Saratov City Duma of the 4th convocation to the post of head of the Saratov City Municipality. In 2011, he went through the federal list of candidates for deputies of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation of the 6th convocation, but lost the deputy mandate to S.V. Kancher.

    On July 3, 2016, he was elected Secretary of the Saratov regional branch of the WFP "United Russia". In September 2016, he was elected to the State Duma of the Federal Assembly Russian Federation 7th convocation from the Saratov single-mandate constituency 163.

    Grishchenko was the mayor for more than ten years, and was remembered by the townspeople as an ambiguous personality.

    On the one hand, on his initiative, spontaneous trade was removed from the city, but small entrepreneurs also suffered along with it. With Grishchenko on the streets regional center flower pots and decorative illumination appeared, but the public and controlling structures then figured out for a long time whether the improvement was worth the money spent. During raids and trips, Grishchenko communicated with residents quite willingly, and at meetings of the City Duma he upset officials and deputies only in this way. Once he even demanded to turn off the microphone to the head of the administration of Saratov.

    There were more scandalous stories related to the ex-head. In particular, one of the State Duma deputies applied to the prosecutor's office with a request to check whether Oleg Vasilyevich was a shadow owner of the SPGES CJSC enterprise, and whether he enriched himself from the city budget by providing benefits to the CJSC. And in the reports on television flashed a mansion in Ust-Kurdyum, allegedly belonging to the head of Saratov, with a helipad and a section of the Volga bank fenced off from strangers.

    He expressed his condolences in connection with the death of the deputy from the Saratov region Oleg Grishchenko. It is known that 50-year-old Grishchenko died on the night of June 17, 2017 after a long illness.

    “He was a bright, talented politician and an experienced leader. His death is an irreparable loss for everyone who knew him and worked with him, ”the message says.

    According to the party, he was active in his region.

    "Before last days Oleg Vasilyevich was active in his life, devoting all his efforts to solving the problems of the inhabitants of the district entrusted to him and the Saratov region. Saratov regional ER expresses sincere condolences to family and friends. The bright memory of this wonderful person will forever remain in our hearts.

    The Saratov regional authorities also expressed their condolences to Grishchenko's family and friends.

    “A bright, extraordinary person who devoted himself to creative work for the benefit of the Saratov region has passed away. A man-leader, he achieved success in everything, no matter what he undertook.

    Being the general director of the Saratov Bearing Plant, Oleg Grishchenko brought production to a new level of development, did his best to make it efficient and competitive,” said the Acting Governor of the Saratov Region.

    According to members of the regional government, as head of the Saratov Bearing Plant, Grishchenko brought production to a new level of development, did his best to make the enterprise efficient and competitive.

    “For many years, Oleg Vasilievich served as head of the regional center. In the memory of the residents of Saratov, he will remain a leader who took an active part in legislative activities, dealt with issues of improvement, and confidently promoted social policy. He was always open to interacting with people. The well-being of the Saratov region was in the center of attention of Grishchenko, a deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation. Unfortunately, many of Oleg Vasilyevich's plans did not come true. He left in the prime of his life, but the memory and gratitude of the townspeople will remain," the regional government said in a statement.

    In 1993-2005, Grishchenko worked at the Saratov Bearing Plant as Deputy General Director for Commercial Policy and Development and General Director. In 2004-2005, he represented the interests of the residents of the Zavodskoy district in the Saratov Regional Duma. Since 2005, he served as the head of the administration of Saratov, and since 2006, he headed the local government of the regional center, becoming a deputy of the Saratov City Duma and taking the post of head of Saratov.
