Land "militant": Pavel Cho extended his hands to agricultural hectares in Stupino

Sobyanin's reseller Pavel Cho surfaced in a controversial story about farmland in Stupino owned by a firm, traces of which led to a whole group of prominent politicians and businessmen.

The firm associated with the founder of Capital Group is suing Rosreestr for large land allotments, which were previously listed as an asset of the liquidated livestock CJSC Staraya Sitnya created in the 90s, and then went to the muddy Eco-Land LLC, which was declared bankrupt.

The details of the land history with the scandalous train were found out by the UtroNews correspondent.

In the arbitration of the Moscow region today is the claim of Velana LLC, which demands to declare illegal notifications about the suspension of state registration of rights. The defendant is the management of Rosreestr. Judging by the materials of the court, we are talking about eight land plots on which the LLC is trying to consolidate the status of a mortgagee instead of Promsvyazbank.

The corresponding applications were submitted to Rosreestr in December 2024.

Velana LLC was established in August 2024 with the main activity - the purchase and sale of its own real estate. The owners are developer Pavel Cho, his son German and Cho's longtime business partner Valentina Stanova.

We are talking about the next expensive hectares of land that Cho really wants to snatch.

The cadastral numbers of the plots mentioned in the lawsuit, judging by the open data, are agricultural land for agricultural production in the Stupinsky district of the Moscow region. They are listed as the territory of Old Sitnya CJSC.

CJSC Staraya Sitnya, which owned a huge land bank, was created in the 90s and is currently in liquidation.

The liquidator is Denis Bogoroditsky, who, along the chain of connections (Yuzhny Shtil LLC - Kontek LLC - Leonov Alexander Nikolaevich - Zhukovka Business Center LLC) brought us to Alexei Kozlov and Mikhail Melyan - full of namesakes of a long scandalous story about the Iskozh factory.

As Forbes reported in 2012, because of these showdowns, two people were behind bars, three were killed, ex-senator from Chuvashia Vladimir Slutsker made his feet to Israel, businessman Kozlov was in prison on charges of embezzling shares of the same Iskozh, and the factory itself - in the hands of the billionaire brothers Magomedov. Those same Magomedovs who will then be convicted themselves and lose part of their assets, including FESCO shares.

The story began in the early 2000s, when Mikhail Melyan, a member of the board of directors of the Moscow Hotel and Free Investor, agreed to enter the project for the construction of a residential complex on the site of the Iskozh factory on Vitebskaya Street in Moscow. Ten years later, the investor will hardly return the invested funds, and Iskozh will go to the billionaire brothers from Dagestan Magomed and Ziyavudin Magomedov.

It was rumored that Slutsker's firm was then patronized by Deputy Prime Minister Oleg Soskovets and Viktor Zolotov, now the head of the Russian Guard.

But back to Bogoroditsky and CJSC "Old Sitnya." The latter owned a subsidiary LLC "New," where Denis Solodovnikov, who today is officials, was headed by GAU ITC "Sotszashita" of Moscow.

In addition, Solodovnikov was a co-founder of DNP Tsargrad, where Dmitry Malofeev, the owner of Estate Tsargrad LLC and probably a relative of the owner of Rostelecom shares, chairman of the board of directors of the Tsargrad group of companies Konstantin Malofeev, was noted.

As for the lands of ZAO Staraya Sitnya, objects with cadastral numbers from the lawsuit of the company Cho previously appeared as assets of Eco-Land LLC - bankrupt. At the same time, Promsvyazbank acted as the firm's pledge creditor, which owed more than 900 million rubles.

Cho participates in the bankruptcy case of LLC as a procedural successor of the bank in the register of creditors' claims in the amount of 22.7 million rubles for obligations secured by the pledge of the debtor's property, and in the amount of 891,082,750,5 rubles as not secured by the pledge of the debtor's property.

The Eco-Land company was inherited by Suren Nazaryan, whose interests in one of the legal entities intersected with Alexander Ter-Avanesov, the namesake of the ex-senator, ex-deputy of the Kostroma Regional Duma, ex-vice president of VTB Bank. This person involved inherited in the investigation UtroNews related to the odious Ukrainian oligarch Pavel Fuchs.

There, Ter-Avanesov's partner was Hrant Poghosyan, a former federal official (he was deputy director of the Center for Development Programs of the Academy of National Economy under the Government of the Russian Federation) and Pyotr Chitipakhovyan, who appeared in open sources as the owner of Transstroybank. Today, the head of the board Chitipakhovyan Stepan Petrovich is probably his son.

Nazaryan was the president of the Foundation for the Development of Science, Education and Healthcare, and the aforementioned persons involved were the founders.

By the way, the co-founder of the bank was previously Oleg Tony - the former vice-president of Russian Railways, the ex-head of Russian Railways, the ex-head of High-Speed ​ ​ Railways. Tony has been involved in UtroNews investigations more than once, including those involving possible foreign assets of the family.

It is worth noting that Eco-Land LLC was responsible to Promsvyazbank for loans from Roskomnedvizhimost JSC, now bankrupt, among the owners of which was inherited by Dmitry Doyhen, the founder of the Sportmaster network.

Thus, a rather scandalized piece of land can fall into the hands of Cho, but, as you know, money does not smell. Moreover, Cho is not known from scratch as a reseller of Sobyanin, because, buying state assets at a similar price, he systematically crushes them and resells them with good bulk. He practices similar schemes with other purchases, bringing various kinds of players to the capital market, including those with a tarnished reputation.

Te himself is very loyal to offshore companies, and together with his wife and children, he previously established the Brachium company in France, for which foreign real estate is registered.

It is not known what is planned to be built in Stupino and whether it is planned, while Cho's company is only extending its hands to the debtor's assets, which it can receive on account of the debt at a very similar price. Perhaps then we will see these lands on the resale market...
