Prigozhin’s structures occupy almost monopoly positions in billion-dollar contracts with the Ministry of Defense. He is also credited with financing the work of the “troll factory,” Mediazona recalls.

Prigozhin’s name is associated with a series of attacks on opposition bloggers in St. Petersburg, which took place in January-June 2016. Lyubov Sobol from the Anti-Corruption Foundation, who was investigating Prigozhin’s activities, asked the police to check his possible connection with the attack on her husband, sociologist Sergei Mokhov.

Rescuers rescued her using hydraulic equipment. The girl was taken to the International Medical Center SOGAZ, according to preliminary information, the victim may have leg fractures - K.ru insert]

As we learned from eyewitnesses, the main attention of the operational services was expectedly focused on the BMW, but there was also movement around the Gelendvagen.

“In addition to the young driver, there was one passenger in the cabin. They both came out, quickly tied up their numbers, and put them in the cabin,” the eyewitness said.

The Gelendvagen, overturned on its side, was put on its wheels by two tow trucks. The foreign car was loaded and taken to the Avangard car dealership on Primorsky Avenue. He is known for his status as an official dealer of Mercedes-Benz, cooperation with FSO(government contracts for the supply of spare parts are regularly concluded) and the owner is the former hockey player Maxim Sushinsky.

Fate gave the Gelendvagen a short life. It was purchased from Avangard less than 48 hours before the collision - on Friday, December 16. The car was registered to a legal entity with the popular name “Olympus”. The cost, judging by the official prices of the salon, is 12 million rubles.

A novice driver was behind the wheel of the Gelendvagen. His name is Pavel Evgenievich Prigozhin, he is 18 years old. A person with the same data is related to the environment of the St. Petersburg billionaire Evgenia Prigozhina as his, Yevgeny Prigozhin, son. Pavel rarely found himself in public space. In the early 2000s, Business Petersburg reported on the publication of Yevgeny Prigozhin’s book “Indraguzik”. On the cover the authors were named Polina and Pavel Prigozhin. As the businessman himself confirmed in the publication, the fairy tales for “Indraguzik” were invented by his ten-year-old daughter and four-year-old son. Prigogine Sr. also admitted that the publication had undergone cuts during editorial editing:

“What was not included in the book, for example, was how the Indraguziks drove a car - one sat on the mirror, the other pressed the pedals, turned the steering wheel, got into an accident, they were detained, surprised, the inspectors fainted,” the restaurateur told Business Petersburg. .

In the summer of 2016, Pavel, already matured, was brought out into public FBK investigation, which, among other things, studied social networks to confirm that the 37-meter yacht belonged to the Prigozhin family. Among the evidence was a photograph of a naked person from Pavel’s Instagram.

Now the accounts of Prigozhin’s children are closed, so it is problematic to find out the reaction to the night accident. But she's probably bleak. The repair estimate for Gelendvagen could amount to 3-5 million rubles, and Pavel is in the hospital. The medical examination for alcohol seemed to give a negative result.

A preliminary analysis of the accident by traffic police officers showed that both cars were clearly moving in excess of the speed limit established for the city. Eyewitnesses put it more simply:

“This Gelendvagen overtook me in front of this traffic light. He flew at least 180,” says network user Nina Savchenko, who, according to her, was driving an Audi Q7.

The State Traffic Inspectorate has no doubt about one thing:

“The intersection is controlled, and one of the participants in the accident drove through the prohibiting traffic light,” the interlocutor clarified. “However, it is premature to talk about the degree of guilt; the drivers have not yet been interviewed.”

The son of a successful restaurateur and owner of the so-called Olga troll factory (Internet Research LLC), Evgeniy Prigozhin, named Pavel, overturned in a newly purchased Mercedes Gelandewagen. Fontanka told about the forgotten pages of the little millionaire’s childhood.

About a serious accident in St. Petersburg reported back on December 18, one of the users of the “Road Accidents and Emergency | St. Petersburg" on VKontakte.

At the intersection of Piskarevsky and Bestuzhevskaya. A Gelendvagen AMG on the side and a BMW 5 covered in pixel camouflage. The passenger's legs were pinned inside. The driver of the Gelik, a guy about 20 years old, said that he was driving through a red light.

The next day, the St. Petersburg publication Fontanka found out who owned the Mercedes Gelandewagen worth at least 12 million rubles. The car was purchased just 48 hours before the accident at the Avangard car dealership of hockey player Maxim Sushinsky. The company is known for supplying spare parts to the garages of the Federal Security Service.

Buyer - Olimp LLC. As journalists managed to find out, the car was purchased in the interests of Pavel Evgenievich Prigozhin, born in 1996. This is the son of the man known as “Putin’s cook” and the owner of the “troll factory” - Yevgeny Prigozhin.

Pavel himself, his passenger and the driver of the second car are now in the hospital. According to experts, the cost of repairing the Gelika will be at least 3 million rubles.

The publication recalls a story from Pavlik Prigozhin’s childhood. In 2002, a father published a book for his children about little people who can hide everywhere. It consists of stories that Eugene himself and his wife told their children at night. The children are listed as authors: Pavel and Polina Prigozhin. The little people are called “Indraguziki”. In an interview with Business Petersburg, Prigozhin recalled where this name came from.

The name was invented by 10-year-old Polina. Then, one by one, Indraguza, Gagarik, Kakarik, Bungazik began to appear - stupid words that are quickly snatched from children and are close to children's curses.

Before publication, the book, which had a circulation of only a thousand copies and was distributed among friends and acquaintances like the director of the Hermitage Mikhail Piotrovsky, was censored.

What was not included in the book, for example, was how the Indraguziks drove a car - one sat on the mirror, the other pressed the pedals, turned the steering wheel - they got into an accident, they were detained, they were surprised, the inspectors fainted.

Until recently, the book could be bought on the Internet, but now it is a second-hand book rarity.

In October . The 1.3 hectare area contains several houses, a swimming pool, a greenhouse, a parking lot and a basketball court, as well as the property of his children. During the investigation that helped discover the houses, FBK activists also used data from Pavel Prigozhin’s Instagram. In particular, the video features a nude photo of him.

Officially, Prigozhin owns several restaurants, including Staraya Customs in St. Petersburg, as well as the Concord catering holding, which in recent years has grown into the largest enterprise in the catering industry thanks to government orders.

At the end of October, the editorial office of the newspaper “Nevskie Novosti” was in St. Petersburg. The former Internet Research LLC, whose successor this year was Teka LLC, is behind a number of information dumps, and is also known as a center where paid commentators work on social networks.

Earlier, the police conducted an inspection of the famous “troll factory” in St. Petersburg and. The reason was a complaint from former employee Lyudmila Savchuk about the company’s illegal actions as an employer.

Whom many media outlets have long called Vladimir Putin’s “personal chef,” was involved in a serious accident in St. Petersburg. As eyewitnesses reported on the social network VKontakte, on the night of December 18 at the intersection of Piskarevsky Prospekt and Bestuzhevskaya Street

A BMW 5 Series covered in camouflage film and a black Mercedes Gelandewagen AMG collided. As I later found out, the Gelandewagen was driven by an 18-year-old.

The noise from the collision was so loud that it awakened residents of nearby houses. The impact caused the luxury SUV to turn over on its side, and the BMW, judging by the photo from the scene, received a powerful blow to the right side of the body, which led to serious damage. As eyewitnesses wrote, young people came out of the Gelandewagen salon, quickly changed their numbers and waited for the support group. As it turned out, in addition to the driver, who was not injured, there was a passenger in the BMW.

The girl’s legs were pinned and, as eyewitnesses reported, it took the arriving rescuers at least half an hour to get her out of the mangled car.

“We woke up from a terrible blow,” wrote eyewitness Polina Melnikova. “At first we saw an overturned black car, but it turned out that the girl from the BMW was injured. We heard a scream." Other witnesses said that both cars were traveling at high speed and one of them ran a red traffic light. However, many statements contradict each other.

According to Fontanka, a preliminary analysis of the accident by employees showed that both cars were clearly moving in excess of the speed limit established for the city.

“This Gelendvagen overtook me in front of this traffic light. He was flying at least 180,” said netizen Nina Savchenko, who, according to her, was driving an Audi Q7.

The State Traffic Inspectorate has no doubt about one thing:

“The intersection is controlled, and one of the participants in the accident drove through the prohibiting traffic light,” Fontanka’s interlocutor clarified. “However, it is premature to talk about the degree of guilt; the drivers have not yet been interviewed.”

According to preliminary data, Prigozhin himself is currently in the hospital. A medical examination for alcohol gave a negative result.

After the incident was registered, the BMW was taken to a special site, and the Gelandewagen was taken to the Avangard car dealership on Primorsky Prospekt, where, according to data, it was purchased just two days before the incident for 12 million rubles. The salon has the status of an official dealer of the Mercedes-Benz brand and is known for its cooperation with (government contracts for the supply of spare parts are regularly concluded). Its owner is a famous former hockey player.

Let us recall that Yevgeny Prigozhin became famous for his rapid career, which is believed to have taken off after he was noticed in 2001 in one of the restaurants where Prigozhin personally served the president. In 2003, the restaurateur already organized a banquet on the occasion of the birthday of the head of state. Five years later, Prigozhin's company received the right to serve guests during the inauguration. According to media reports, Prigozhin consistently receives government orders for food supplies to military structures and schools.

Recently, Gazeta.Ru wrote that the company Collective-Service, which may be part of Prigozhin’s business empire and fed Russian sailors in Crimea and Sevastopol, belongs to.

Let us note that at the end of May in St. Petersburg, the traffic police and traffic police officers gave chase to the motorcade of Prigozhin Sr. who was violating traffic rules.

The recording published by Fontanka shows how security forces were chasing a BMW 760 with license plate O377CA and a black Nissan Patrol SUV (license plate T930PO) - Prigozhin was driving in one of them. The police officers demanded that the drivers stop, but they ignored their demands. As a result, the chase ended only after the BMW stopped near the sidewalk and a police car blocked its path. Inspectors checked the drivers' documents and removed special signals from the cars. All this time, there were men in masks and camouflage with the inscription FSB on the spot.
