Putin’s Defense Minister Shoigu lost his deputy. Corruption, treason, or the struggle of powerful clans?

Previously, Ivanov worked in energy companies and was also involved in the construction industry – in short, an area where big money is made not only in Russia. Deputy of Sergei Shoigu became Ivanov already in 2012, it was not yet a question of the Department of Defense. At that time, he promoted Shoigu from the Minister for Emergency Situations to the Governor of the Moscow Region. He was there for only a few months before taking over the defense, while Ivanov remained in the regional administration for four years. At the same time, he was the director of the joint-stock company Oboronstroj, owned by the Ministry of Defense. Shoigu called him back in autumn 2016.

At the ministry, Timur Ivanov was mainly in charge of military real estate and the accommodation of soldiers, including the projects of the new Vostochny Cosmodrome, the construction of which is taking enormously longer and more expensive, but also restoration of the occupied bombed-out Mariupol.

On Tuesday, Ivanov was arrested at his workplace on suspicion of corruption, and he allegedly confessed immediately, an unnamed source from the security forces told TASS. A day later, a Moscow court imposed custody on him, as well as on Sergei Borodin. His name appears in a number of companies connected in one way or another with Ivanov and business around the Ministry of Defense.

“Borodin was detained earlier in another case and during the investigation he entered into a preliminary agreement and testified against the Deputy Minister of Defense,” the REN TV source said. “They have been friends for a long time. They often celebrated birthdays together with their families,” adds the Ura website.

Then on Thursday, news came that the man who, according to the authorities, bribed Ivanov was also arrested. Alexander Fomin is building new buildings in Mariupol, he repeatedly appeared with Ivanov. In exchange for the allocation of army contracts, the companies renovated the deputy’s real estate, according to investigators.
