The villa of ex Defence Minister Serdyukov
Today YABLOKO leader Sergei Mitrokhin has held a public inspection
of the so-called "Serdyukov cottage" in the Big
Utrish natural reserve area. The inspection was held within
the framework of Mitrokhin’s visit to the Krasnodar region.
Alexei Yegorov, leader of the Anapa branch of YABLOKO and
candidate for the Mayor of Anapa, and Andrei Rudomakha, leader
of the regional branch of YABLOKO also participated in the
inspection.
The participants of the inspection have personally observed
that construction of the cottage in a natural reserve went
on despite the resignation of Anatoly Serdyukov fromk his
ministerial post. In 2009, the site was transferred to the
Ministry of Defence for "placement of a navigation station"
there.
However, mysteriously, construction of a luxury villa instead
of a radar began at the site. The contractor was Serdyukov’s
son-in-law Valery Puzikov. Presumably the villa is being built
for him.
The security guard of the cottage tried not to let the party
inspection on site threatening to let a dog loose on them.
The dog turned out to be kind.
YABLOKO leader found fresh plaster slab and mounting profile
on the site – a proof that the construction had been going
on.
YABLOKO also carried out an inspection of another plot of
land: not far from "Serdyukov’ villa" there may
soon emerge the second villa of Governor Tkachyov. According
to the activists of the regional branch of YABLOKO, the site
in the natural reserve Big Utrish was transferred into property
of the Stroibeton company. Most likely the owner of the cottage
will be Governor of the Krasnodar Territory Alexander Tkachyov.
Such a scheme – transfer of land into property of some firms
controlled by him – Tkachyov had already used in the construction
of his first summer cottage in the Blue Bay.
Sergei Mitrokhin is visiting Anapa to support Alexei Yegorov,
YABLOKO’s candidate for the post of the city mayor. The elections
will be held on March 24. Sergei Mitrokhin appealed to the
Central Electoral Commission so that the Commission ensure
lawful voting.
The second "villa of Governor Tkachyov"
may emerge here soon.
