Former director of the famous singer Olga Konyahina sentenced to six years in prison, said that the singer is engaged in illegal gastarbayterstvom. Last summer, all the media reported that Preobrazhensky district court in Moscow sentenced the former director of Sofia Rotaru Olga Konyakhin. To six years in prison for the Arts 159 of the Criminal Code, "Fraud". She was. Embezzlement prepaid concert singer, she knew not even supposed that accused But this story is not as simple as it might seem at first glance. - Criminal proceedings were made against Konyakhin - said lawyer Olga Petrovna Valery Prilepsky. - When Olga was Director Rotary, many wanted to take their place. These people said the singer: "You Konyahina privorovyvaet, and not to give all the money." In fall 2008, Olga organized their next tour. Obtained for each of the 15 concerts Rotaru estimated 50 thousand dollars. But then again, as the dollar jumped dramatically in price. And money was ruble mass. In dollar terms, turned out of the total amount of the fee to less than 210,000. Rotaru found that he cheated and wrote a complaint to the police that the money allegedly Konyahina. Moreover, the statement is not written in the community, as it should be according to the law, and immediately the Deputy Interior Minister, Colonel General Nikolai Ovchinnikov (released in February 2010 by President Dmitry Medvedev - MF). What is the signature for members investigator is vice? She immediately took cover and began to collect evidence against Konyakhin. Sofia Rotaru testify to Rotaru refused to come, and they were interviewed in the community. As told me Konyahina, Sofia Mikhailovna not even the investigators to his apartment, and he wrote to her testimony on the landing, in the truest sense of the word on her knees. Obviously because of the interrogation was full blots and corrected. Then on the document referred to the court. Quoting the Rotary ", November 2, 2008, I reported that it no longer occupies Konyakhin my concerts." In fact, the report was written the opposite: "... I said Konyakhin that there is more to my concerts." But the interesting thing, even that is not. During questioning Rotaru actually denied the allegations, claiming that they do not cause any damage Konyahina. And after a while, the investigator named Ruslana Evdokimenko son and said that neither mother nor will occupy no more. But the car was already running. In case involved the tour organizers, Olga was a prepayment for more concerts failed Rotaru. It actively promoted the new director of the singer Andrew Neklyudov (also director Nikolai Baskov - MF). Everything he called and said, ".. Now I do concerts Rotaru A Konyahina - scammers concerts, they promised not write her statement to the police.". Many fear and wrote. Those who did not want to write statements, drawn in the case against her will. For example, the famous Moscow promoter Ivan Grigorov (- MF in show business, he is known under the name of Gomel). In November 2008, Olga took him on loan for two years 90 000 Euro. 40,000 of them were his personal and 50,000 gave him his partners - Korchin Alexander, Nicholas and Eugenia Zhadanov Makukha, which he promised to arrange concerts Rotaru. It seems that no evidence of fraud by Konyakhin here and watched closely. What is the crime? With the purchase of another property by deception or abuse of trust. But Olga did not fool anyone. Your long-term debt at the time of the study and investigation Grigorov has not yet expired. And they started back his money. And its partners in person and can not communicate, they do not, and promised them nothing. However Grigorov and its partners announced for the victims and also contributed in every single episode of criminal proceedings. "We make no claims on Konyakhin, - Gregory and Korchin says in court -. This is our internal affairs, we have to deal with them please do not deprive of freedom..." But they ignored the statement and did not even have the record. No less strange situation with two other victims - Elena Margulets from Nizhny Novgorod and Samara Tatiana Ephraim. According to their testimony, they were talking about concerts Rotaru by Sergey Lavrov, the company and the money, "the Kremlin said Concert" to the account of a company "Auto Business Pole", which transferred them the same Lavrov. The company was registered to a lost passport and used show business 'laundering' money. Konyahina him had nothing to do. However, the investigation and the court decided that this company is in league with unknown persons to commit fraud against Margulets and Ephraim. In addition, the amount of damage as a result of Ephraim and Grigorov, when called from dollars to rubles, inexplicably, the "large scale" transformed - more than one million. The surplus was small - only 5000 rubles. But Olga was fatal. This allowed the court shall apply the Part 4 of Article 159 "fraud on a large scale", provided by the most severe punishment - from 5 to 10 years in prison. It is noteworthy that the judge Solovyov, the one case in the Transfiguration Konyakhin Court opens visited personally the appeal pending before the Moscow City Court. It came with the Moscow City Court judge. Their behavior was obvious that they were friends. Not surprisingly, our appeal was dismissed and the sentence unchanged. But we will not give up. We will complain to higher authorities. And if it is necessary to write well in Strasbourg. *** Courtesy of press office of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia, I met and spoke with Olga Konyakhin serving time in a women's prison near Vladimir. It turned out that she was there and still do the same work - Own Club and organized by the prisoners amateur concerts. - I suffered a lot because of Sofia Rotaru, a citizen of Ukraine, led his concert activity in Russia is illegal, without submitting the relevant documents - added Olga. - Despite the fact that I am over 10 years as a director, our working relationships were not officially recorded - either in the workbook or the contract. The only thing that went Rotaru - I have a business card that I was her manager. After the concert she went hands me my cash payment at any time in its sole discretion. Likewise, cash, I received and handed her fees for concerts. The official documents are not filed and the taxes are not paid. Of course, this led me problems. But the opportunity to. With actress that level work and earn good money outweighed my fear, dive into a story - Wait a minute! But it was a kind of company Rotaru -. "Sophia" Art Studio I remember writing this company was on the receipt, you have given to the organizers of concerts in advance ("EC" № 26, 2009) -. Actually wanted not art studio "Sophia" does not exist. It was just a facsimile, the reliability was set when he sent letters to official institutions. in Ukraine was a Rotaru each others company. Through them, she paid the minimum tax on royalties for the Ukrainian concerts ... But I do not know how it was just Knew that all accounting matters treated her daughter-in-law of light from time to time, she called me and said, "We have to report on their taxes. Sofia Mikhailovna year was not in Ukraine. Give us the paper that she has been working in Russia, and all taxes paid there! "." How could such papers? - I asked myself. -. After all the concerts were held informally "I Rotaru repeatedly offered an office in Russia, and that all legal means. But it has always been the position that the Russian government should not know how much she earns in Russia. The sum of the charges is strictly prohibited and everywhere record voice notes. Even from his family, she hid in the presence of relatives of negotiations on monetary matters fuss. - As agreed promoters work with her without papers? After all, she had somehow for the money they paid for their account. - To a concert Rotaru and capital they hold on, they were addicted to it and came up with various ingenious systems calculations. In particular, it created the "left" of the company, "phony." Hero and the money collected through them. And then these firms closed. Additional complication was that Rotaru took charge in the currency. Because currency conversions have been banned or had to violate the law, or exchange then receive rubles dollars. - The organizers told me of other oddities Rotaru. Is it true, for example, used to refer to all concerts dates cumbersome tape release of the 90s, and demanded that the soundtrack of her voice ran to him? - In fact, drove two sen recorder. In case of a failure. It is believed that such recorders obsolete. But they still the best sound quality. This will tell you, no sound. - I have also heard from the organizers that they always give you instructions before Rotaru: "Not cut open bottles, fruit and vegetables, not to raise long car rides." What was the reason? - Long-machine did not like them because they have a cold and uncomfortable. As for bottles and other things ... According to the driver, the organizers had to make it expensive in the locker room brandy, fresh food, all kinds of teas, etc. available kofei But it almost never ate nothing and drank. After all this has been to concerts in the bag and took it to his home in the Ukraine. Sometimes these bags are dragged them around the route, and at the end they are recruited so many that have arisen in the level of overweight luggage. Why did she do it - I've never understood. - How Rotaru earned money exported from Russia to Ukraine? - This is no difficulty. We ordinary people shake their customs. And no one checked. She smiled, and allowed no explanation in the pocket huge sums. And when it suddenly bit embarrassing, she gave me a bag. If Rotary is in Ukraine, crossed money. Their or by administrators who had already established courier or two Moscow companies In these firms at one time I brought in a package at 300-500 thousand dollars. Arriving by car alone, without protection. The question is why do I have to cheat and defraud the organizers, they have some ridiculous amount? If you want, I could fake a robbery and set right half. But I wanted and what not occur. - Why have you traveled so much money without protection? Do not be afraid that you actually robbed? Was also the case if your administrator of the car 65 thousand U.S. dollars, and you had the money to pay back ("EC" № 6, 2009) -. For protection needed to pay. Rotaru not want. "That's your problem," - she said. And me, and so had to keep paying for them out of pocket. For example, when we went on tour, and airport flight delay took place, Rotaru was eating in a restaurant. I understand that the director of the other artists made in such cases operators charged. But I was too embarrassed to tell people: ". You have $ 200-300" You are already paying Rotaru unrealistic fees. It was easier to pay the most. During the ill-fated tour in fall 2008, I even money on their fee. When we lined the way, absolutely not accept the fee is $ 50,000, which is offered in Chelyabinsk. She agreed there for only 55 thousand. And to meet their requirements, I refused to pay them for this city plus gave her the money, which I discuss further managed in a different city. In short, as the administrators say, let the sum of the circle. - At the trial you were accused of the opposite - get the misappropriation of money as payment for concerts Rotaru. Where are the funds? - In fact, all I got from the organizers, I totally gave the actress. It was a common practice, if the prepayment registered long before the concert. Thus, the organizers want to mark to bring a claim to the right to Rotaru in a particular city. When the actress plans suddenly changed, and. At the stipulated time, it could not come, as a rule, the money will not be returned, and the concert postponed for another date For example, the organizer pays the Krasnodar region, an advance payment for two years waiting for arrival Rotaru. But when autumn was formed in 2008 because of the jump in the dollar shortage, the actress gave that money to work out future concerts that I did not, and refused. Before we often quarreled with her. I fired repeatedly. And the next day he came back. Just 10 years ago it was not! I hoped that this time somehow find common ground with her. Asked them to find out after all these shows and take to pay off my entire salary shortfall. But she would not listen to me. And I could not influence. After the receipt of the money was never documented. - In many years, they have never Rotaru is to violations? - You will not believe it, no one has ever even tried to catch it on something. So strong was the influence of Rotary name and authority. In fact, their concerts in Russia - gastarbayterstvo pure illegally. But all these years, she toured across the country quietly. And felt so with impunity, even refused. At a concert for the Federal Tax Service of Russia "I do not need it, - said Rotaru -. I will speak only taxes in Ukraine". But last year, she suddenly started to friends with the Russian tax authorities to make. Came and they worked in concert. And the last "Golden Gramophone Award" was presented to her, even the head of the pre-trial examination FTS Daniel Egorov. Not only how to go back to the intent Rotaru affect on tour in Russia. I am sure that everything will be done in the same way with the "black card". And again turn a blind eye. *** I contacted the son of Sofia Rotaru Evdokimenko Ruslan and asked him on the testimony of his mother Olga Konyakhin about royalties "black card" and tax evasion comment. - I do not want to discuss the filth that pours Konyahina on our family - said in response Ruslan. - We could say a lot of reliable information about this person. But we need this type of advertising. We are in the business and are not PR on dirt. If convicted Konyahina believes her wrong, make a complaint to law enforcement! What does this mean Sofia Mikhailovna? Except for the fact that Olga, covering her name, took money from the people who were then never seen again. In fact it has Rotaru substituted. After all these Konyahina still be allowed to give any interviews, and in some guilt Sophia Mikhailovna. A feeling that they do not understand what he says. Maybe she's just not herself?
