Magnitsky’s Widow Asks Swiss Jewellery Company Chopard to Disassociate Itself From Moscow Film
Festival That Plans to Screen Anti-Magnitsky Propaganda Film
21 June 2016 – The widow of Sergei Magnitsky, the Russian lawyer killed in Russian police custody in
2009, has written to Karl-Friedrich Scheufele, CEO of Chopard, a super luxury Swiss watch and jewellery
company, asking for Chopard to reconsider its sponsorship of the Moscow Film Festival which recently
added Andrei Nekrasov's anti-Magnitsky propaganda film to its program on 23-30 June 2016.
“I urge you to not associate your fine brand and reputation of your company with the people who killed
my husband and benefited from the serious corruption he had uncovered, and to publicly disassociate with
the film festival unless its organizers remove this film from the program. This film has been thoroughly
discredited and described as propaganda,” said Sergei Magnitsky's widow in her letter to Chopard.
The anti-Magnitsky film by Russian filmmaker Andrei Nekrasov has been endorsed by senior Russian
Government officials, including Russian Foreign Affairs Minister Sergei Lavrov and Russian General
Prosecutor Yuri Chaika. The film has been promoted by perpetrators and beneficiaries of the US$230
million fraud that Sergei Magnitsky exposed. These include: Pavel Karpov, the former Russian Interior
Ministry officer who had custody of the documents used in the crime; Andrei Pavlov, lawyer for the
Russian criminal group who took part in sham court proceedings as part of the fraud; and Denis Katsyv,
son of a Russian government official, whose assets have been seized in the US and Switzerland for
suspicion of laundering the proceeds of the US$230 million fraud.
“It is surprising that Chopard would associate itself with this sordid spectacle. They should withdraw their
funding for this effort. It’s one thing for compromised Russians to posthumously defame a Russian hero
who gave his life for his principles. It's entirely another when this is done relying on sponsorship funds
from a reputable Western company like Chopard,” said William Browder, leader of the global Magnitsky
395
Obtained via FOIA by Judicial Watch, Inc.
Justice movement.
The anti-Magnitsky film by Andrei Nekrasov is one in a series of Russian propaganda and intimidation
efforts seeking to fight Magnitsky sanctions and to avoid accountability for the torture and murder of
Magnitsky and for the US$230 million theft he had uncovered. Prior to this, there has been a series of four
propaganda films produced and aired on Russian federal TV stations in which Browder is portrayed as a
CIA agent working to destroy Russia. Other methods have included opening new criminal cases against
William Browder, as well as Russian anti-corruption blogger Alexei Navalny who has been vocally
supporting justice for Sergei Magnitsky.

Dear
Thank you so much - I know you are wading through a ton of these travel
arrangements.
I'm afraid the flight from DC to Munich will not work for my schedule.
As I mentioned to Steve Monaco when I accepted his kind invitation, I have a
meeting in Washington on Feb 2 that I cannot miss. That is why I requested
a flight departing on the evening of Feb 2 from Washington, arriving in
Munich on Feb 3. Is it possible to arrange a flight leaving DC that
evening?
The return flight, of course, has no such time constraints, so I can take
the flights that you have proposed.

Bruce, that can work--you might get here really late on the 2nd, or early on
the 3rd and then can jump in after rest, etc. This opens up a new
possibility--that we recast your presentation to be one of closing remarks
on the 4th. We wrap up this event on the morning of the 4th. I'm working
on confirming the UNODC to speak that morning on the UNCAC, the recent
conference of the parties to the convention, and sort of a "way ahead" view
on global corruption efforts.
I am revising the agenda right now, to reflect the speakers that have
confirmed. I'll send it you shortly. I think you'll see how closing
thoughts from a senior US official on the importance of global cooperation
could put a fine touch on the topics we will have discussed for 3 days.

Subject: FW: Putin alleged OC ties described in UK Litvineko report out today
Morning all,
Some especially interesting sections in UK Judge Robert Owen’s report out today. The whole thing is
written in first person. Some particularly relevant OC excerpts (page 15):
3.12 I heard that it was whilst working for the Economic Security and Organised Crime Unit that Mr
Litvinenko first began to investigate the activities of the Tambov criminal group. This was an organised
crime group based in St Petersburg. It was led by Vladimir Kumarin, also known as Barsukov, and another
man called Alexander Malyshev. In the course of his investigations, Mr Litvinenko discovered evidence that
the Tambov group was engaged in smuggling heroin from Afghanistan via Uzbekistan and St Petersburg to
Western Europe. Even more significantly, he became convinced that there was widespread collusion
between the Tambov group and KGB officials, including both Vladimir Putin and Nikolai Patrushev.
9.20 As I have described above, the fight against organised crime had been one of Mr Litvinenko’s
preoccupations since the start of his career in the Committee for State Security (KGB). His investigations
into the activity of Russian crime gangs, and in particular the Tambov/Malyshev group based in St
Petersburg, also revealed to him the extent of the collusion (as he saw it) between organised crime and
members, including senior members, of the FSB.
9.21 Mr Litvinenko sought to expose these links, in particular in his book The Gang from the Lubyanka,
which contained detailed allegations of collusion between FSB officers and organised crime.
9.22 Further, Mr Litvinenko passed information to the Mitrokhin Commission alleging that Semion
Mogilevich, apparently one of the leaders of Russian organised crime, was an FSB agent with a
769
Obtained via FOIA by Judicial Watch, Inc.
longstanding personal relationship with President Putin.
9.23 Finally, I have also heard evidence that towards the end of his life Mr Litvinenko was assisting the
Spanish authorities with investigations that they were conducting against members of Russian organised
crime groups, and that he thought it possible that he might give evidence against them in court.
9.24 It follows from this short summary that a theory that Mr Lugovoy and Mr Kovtun killed Mr Litvinenko
on the orders of one or more members of Russian crime gangs would not be implausible.
9.25 That theory, however, is not supported by the evidence that is available to me. Detective Inspector
(DI) Mascall stated that the police investigation has not uncovered any evidence linking Mr Mogilevich
directly to the poisoning.3 More broadly, none of the evidence suggests that Mr Lugovoy and Mr Kovtun
were commissioned to kill Mr Litvinenko by members of crime gangs. More than that, I am satisfied for
reasons that I shall describe below that Mr Lugovoy and Mr Kovtun in fact received their instructions from
another source.
9.20 As I h
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-01-21/putin-probably-approved-litvinenko-murder-u-k-
judge-says-ijo2dtrh
·
· Former Russian spy died in 2006 after drinking radioactive tea
· Russia says case was `politicized' and `soured' relationship
·
·
· Russian President Vladimir Putin“probably” approved the 2006 murder of Alexander Litvinenko,
using two government agents to poison the dissident spy, according to a London judge.
Forensic evidence indicates Andrei Lugovoi and Dmitry Kovtun killed Litvinenko by spiking his tea with a
rare radioactive substance, most likely under the direction of the FSB security service, Judge Robert Owen
said in the report published in London Thursday.

"Members of the Putin administration, including the president himself and the FSB, had motives for taking
action against Mr. Litvinenko, including killing him," Owen said. "President Putin’s conduct towards Mr.
Lugovoi suggests a level of approval for the killing."
Litvinenko, a critic of the Kremlin who lived in the U.K. capital, died about three weeks after ingesting the
radioactive polonium. The 44-year-old blamed his death on Putin in an impassioned statement from his
hospital bed.
“All the evidence points in one direction,” Owen said in a summary. “When they killed Mr. Litvinenko, they
were acting on behalf of someone else.”
Strained Relations
Since the inquiry began in January 2015, Anglo-Russian diplomatic relations have sunk to their lowest
point since the Cold War and Thursday’s report may further strain the relationship. The investigation
pored over CCTV footage that retraced Litvinenko’s final weeks, and examined his complicated
relationships with British spy agencies and oligarchs.
“We regret that a purely criminal case was politicized and soured the overall atmosphere in the bilateral
relations,” Maria Zakharova, Russia’s Foreign Ministry spokeswoman, said in a statement. “It’s evident
that halting the coroner’s inquiry and starting ‘public hearings’ had a clear political motivation.”
The Russian currency was 3.6 percent weaker at 84.487 per dollar after the announcement. It earlier fell
to a record 85.999.
U.K. Home Secretary Theresa May condemned Russia’s failure to bring those responsible to justice over
the years. Both Lugovoi and Kovtun have had their assets frozen, she said in a statement.
“This was a blatant and unacceptable breach of the most fundamental tenets of international law and
civilized behavior,” May said in the House of Commons. "We have and will continue to demand that the
Russian government account for the role of the FSB in this case.”
Since 2010 “Russia has become more authoritarian, aggressive and nationalist,” May said. “We must
protect the U.K. and her interests from Russia-based threats, working closely with our allies in the EU and
NATO.”
Enemies
The original inquest into Litvinenko’s death started in 2006 and then adjourned pending criminal
investigations. A subsequent inquest in 2013 was held back by procedural delays and its investigative
powers were limited by national-security concerns.
RIA Novosti reported that Russia sees serious consequences for ties with the U.K. after the verdict, citing
an unidentified person who called the verdict “illegitimate.”
“The appearance of this report in this context, with names, is very serious, said analyst Alexei Makarkin of
the Moscow-based Center for Political Technologies. “It’s another question how the British government will
react to this. There could be harsher measures or less severe ones.”
It could be another knock into Russia’s reputation after Moscow-backed rebels were accused of July 2014
downing of a Malaysian airliner over southeastern Ukraine, he said.
Radiation Trail
The murder was “an attack on the heart of Britain, our values and our society,” the leader of the
opposition Liberal Democrat party, Tim Farron, said in an e-mailed statement. “I call for EU travel bans,
asset freezes and coordinated action to deal with those who committed this evil assassination.”
On his deathbed Litvinenko told London police he suspected Lugovoi and Kovtun were responsible for his
poisoning as they had meet several weeks earlier in an upmarket hotel. Later forensic tests showed the
three men left a trail of polonium across London.
"It would appear that Mr. Litvinenko was alive to the possibility that he had been deliberately poisoned
from the first days of his illness," Owen said in the report, which has taken around six months to publish.
Litvinenko lived an "eventful" life when he moved to the U.K. in 2000, he said.
"The evidence suggest that in the course of such activities, and just as he had in Russia, Mr. Litvinenko
may have made some dangerous enemies," Owen wrote.
Army Training
Litvinenko trained with the Russian army and was recruited into the KGB spy agency in 1987. He served
with the agency in the first Chechen conflict and was allegedly responsible for war crimes, said Robin Tam,
a lawyer for the inquiry.
The spy stayed with the agency as it was broken up after the collapse of the Soviet Union, and later
formed into the Federal Security Service, or FSB. Before his death, Litvinenko was close to Boris
Berezovsky, a one-time billionaire who was found hanging dead in a bathroom in his house outside
London in 2013.
771
Obtained via FOIA by Judicial Watch, Inc.
Litvinenko exposed a plot in the 1990s by Russian authorities to murder Berezovsky, announcing it at a
press conference in Russia. This was an act that his former FSB colleagues considered to be a “gross
betrayal,” Tam said. The former spy pointed to Moscow after being poisoned.
“I am, of course, very pleased that the words my husband spoke on his death bed when he accused Mr.
Putin of his murder have been proved true in an English court with the highest standards of independence
and fairness,” his wife, Marina Litvinenko, said outside the court Thursday. She said all Russian
intelligence officers should be removed from the Russian embassy in London and for targeted economic
and travel sanctions at those responsible.

Wow!!!
Of course I'd love to see Garmisch-Partenkirchen [in the snow]
A ticket for me might cost a pretty penny if you've used up your miles. Looks as if flights to either
Innsbruck or Munich costs about $2400
Also, don't you have to wedge in other trips around that time?

GARMISCH-PARTENKIRCHEN, GERMANY
1 4 FEBRUARY 2016
Travel Arrangements:
Marshall Center funded participants will receive information regarding their airline tickets for travel to
Munich from their contact at the U.S. Embassy in their respective country or directly from the Marshall Center
(Point of Contact (b)(6) per DOD ). Any changes in the flight itinerary (for both arrival and departure flights)
must be coordinated through the Marshall Center travel office. You are also responsible for keeping the
Marshall Center informed of any changes in your flight itinerary to prevent complications with airport
transportation. All itinerary changes within 72 hours prior to arrival should be reported to one of the Points of
Contact listed at the top of this document.
All other participants not funded by the Marshall Center are considered self-payers and should make their own
flight arrangements to Munich (or other travel arrangements bringing them directly to Garmisch-Partenkirchen).
Arrival (Funded Participants): The Marshall Center will provide your transportation from Munich
International Airport to the hotel in Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Transportation will be by sedan, minivan, or bus
and contracted driver (the drive will take app. 1 ½ - 3 hours depending on weather/traffic). You will be met by a
Marshall Center driver/representative carrying a sign with the Marshall Center seal. Please look for the person
with this sign as you enter the arrival area (outside the baggage claim area) of Terminal 1 or 2.
Please wait at your arrival area. If after 15 minutes you have still not seen anyone please contact the Marshall
Center Transportation Coordinator (Mr. Lionel Graham) under Mobile Phone: +49 (0)172 525 6676. You will
receive further instructions.
Please DO NOT TAKE A TAXI OR TRAIN as the Marshall Center cannot reimburse this expense.
Self-Payers: You must arrange for your own transportation. For airport transportation from Munich to
Garmisch, the recommended (and often quickest) transport is via railway/train. From the Munich Airport, you
can take the S1 or S8 railway (depart every 20 minutes) to the Munich main train station and board a train to
Garmisch (trains depart roughly every 30 minutes depending on time of day). You can purchase a ticket at
Munich Airport for the entire trip, cost: app. €19-27 one way (simply follow the S-Bahn/Train signs to the
Deutsche Bahn (DB) service area). Airport and railway information can be viewed on the following website:
http://www.munich-airport.de/en/consumer/index.jsp
Train information and costs are on the following website: http://www.bahn.de/p en/view/index.shtml
Finally, taxis at the Garmisch train station can then transport you to your hotel in less than 5 minutes.
There are also several fee-based shuttle & bus services available that operate between Munich and Garmisch-
Partenkirchen. Two such services can be booked online at: http://www.airport-shuttle-zugspitzland.de/ and
http://meinfernbus.de/en .
Departure (Funded Participants): Your personal departure time and date will be listed on the “Departure
Information Board” in the coffee break area (near the plenary room) during the workshop. Please check the list
and confirm your flight and departure information. Please be on time for the vehicle departure to the airport so
others are not delayed and please ensure that you have your entire luggage with you at the time of departure.

hours prior to airline departure (to account for potential traffic/weather and guarantee your timely arrival for
check-in).

Accompanied by Japanese Prime Minister Shinzō Abe, Donald Trump attended the extravagant
70th birthday party of long-time friend Steve Schwarzman in Palm Beach, Florida on Saturday
night. According to reports, Schwarzman, who is the CEO of global private equity firm The
Blackstone Group, is committed to serving as a key advisor to Trump with the intention of
meeting “frequently” on issues of strategy and policy. Schwarzman made headlines recently
for having traveled with Trump on Air Force One, and after his family housekeeper was pushed
In recent days, a great deal of media attention has been paid to Trump’s National Security
Advisor General Michael Flynn for his possibly illegal discussions with the Kremlin prior to
Inauguration Day in which he may have projected the Trump administration’s intention to lift
sanctions on Russia once Trump assumed office. However, the real story here may in fact be
Schwarzman.
After weeks of sifting through financial disclosures and filing records, a group of concerned
citizens investigating Trump’s ties to Russia has uncovered evidence to suggest that the two
companies involved in the Rosneft deal have ties to the Koch Brothers and Donald Trump
himself. Indeed, Schwarzman’s Blackstone Group may now hold a stake in Rosneft, Russia’s
government-owned oil company that famously sold 19.5% of its stock to two investors this past
December: the first was Glencore, to which evidence suggests the Koch Brothers are connected,
and the second, a mysterious Qatar-based nest doll of shell corporations, which evidence
Schwarzman’s possible connection to Rosneft puts Mr. Trump dangerously close to allegations
brought forth in the controversial Russian dossier that suggested he was offered a 19 percent
stake in the oil company in exchange for lifting American sanctions against Russia. If Donald
Trump was involved with the Rosneft deal it would constitute a high crime of treason worthy of
impeachment and have deeper ramifications about Trump’s knowledge with regards to cyber
The Panama Papers, which leaked in 2016, revealed Russian President Vladimir Putin’s
On Sunday, December 11, 2016, Reuters reported that Russia signed a deal with Glencore, a
commodities trader based out of London, and the Qatar Investment Authority (QIA), Qatar’s
government-owned holding company that conducts foreign investments, to sell a 19.5 percent
stake in oil major Rosneft. The privatization deal was called the “largest in Russia’s history” by
Right off the bat, it should be noted that none other than the Koch Brothers have an investment
with Glencore.
On January 10, according to a Russian news publication known as RBC, 19.5 percent of Rosneft
shares were moved to a Singapore-based company known as QHG Shares Pte Ltd, which
Rosneft confirms owns 19.5 percent of its shares as of February 1, 2017. This company
EXHIBIT E: 1/10/17: 19.5% shares of Rosneft quietly moved to Singapore-based QHG Shares Pte

The Qatar shell corporations that make up the financial backing for the Rosneft deal include
Among them is a little known organization based out of the Cayman Islands known as QHG
Cayman Limited, which along with several other companies makes up the financial backing for
the Rosneft deal in December. More of QHG Cayman’s filing history can be found with the UK
Intertrust, a Dutch trust firm, in 2012. Intertrust has a series of assets located in the Cayman
Islands, including Walker’s Management Services (WMS). Walker’s shares an address with
and registered a Limited Liability Partnership called QHG Cayman Limited on December 16,
2016, only nine days after the Rosneft deal took place and just before the assets were moved to
If this money trail is correct, it would mean Schwarzman now has an interest in the 19.5 percent
Rosneft stake.
The owners of QHG Cayman Limited have not been independently verified.
This comes amidst Friday’s explosive report from the Washington Post that Trump’s National
Security Advisor, General Michael Flynn, had communicated with Sergey Kislyak, a Russian
ambassador, about lifting sanctions against Russia a month before Donald Trump assumed
office. Flynn had previously denied such a conversation occurred. The Washington Post report
alleged that the conversations “were interpreted by some senior U.S. officials as an inappropriate
and potentially illegal signal to the Kremlin that it could expect a reprieve from sanctions that
were being imposed by the Obama administration in late December to punish Russia for its
Reuters ran a detailed report on how Russia was able to sell its massive oil stake without
disclosing the buyers, a mystery that has sparked the fascination of people around the world,
particularly after it was widely reported that former president Barack Obama and Mr. Trump
were both briefed last month regarding a 35-page intelligence dossier prepared by well-known
British intelligence agent Christopher Steele. The controversial “Russia dossier” was
subsequently leaked, a move that was criticized because of the unconfirmed nature of the report
One such allegation, was explicit: Donald Trump would receive up to a 19 percent share of
Rosneft in exchange for lifting sanctions placed on Russia. While the Russian Dossier has not
been confirmed in full, CNN reported on Friday that U.S. investigators have corroborated
EXHIBIT B: The controversial Steele dossier alleged that Trump would be awarded large stake in
Jennifer Cassell, and myself have been working for weeks to get to the bottom of this money
trail.

Paul M. Joyal (born 1954) is an American security analyst and media commentator who frequently
comments on political and security matters concerning Russia and former Soviet countries. A critic of the
administration of Russian president Vladimir Putin, in late February 2007 Joyal told Dateline NBC that the
murder of former KGB agent Alexander Litvinenko served as a warning to all critics of the Putin
government.[1]
A few days later, on March 1, Joyal was shot and wounded outside his home in Adelphi, Maryland. The
Washington Post reports that the attack is under investigation by the FBI.[2][3] Earlier that evening, Joyal
had dined with former KGB general Oleg Kalugin; Kalugin (whom the Russian Government accused of
being a US agent) later told the Washington Post that he was not sure whether the attack was politically
motivated.[4]

5 Andrey Kalitin's Response to the Publication "OVD's Spetsnaz: Secret Operations of Deripaska,"
Kalitin was shot and wounded in June 2007, just before publication of his book.
Chernoy denied involvement and suggested that the shooting was faked.7
Assuming Kalitin was not making up the information about Arifov, where did
he get it?
“The press has often expressed the assertion,” he says, that the Chernoys
acquired their starting capital with help from from Uzbek crime bosses like
Gafur Rakhimov and Tofik Arifov, rather than from selling slippers.
Kalitin continues, “In the Russian press there is practically no information about
Chernoy’s starting capital.” Rather, Kalitin pulls together facts from the brothers’
biography, such as a gap in their biographies from 1985, when they founded the
one of the first cooperatives in Uzbekistan, to 1992, when they cofounded TWG,

some of their export earnings to buy consumer goods abroad. The Chernoys

of Tashkent.
Kalitin then cites rumors and oft-repeated assertions in the press that say the
Chernoys’ cooperative was used to launder Salim and Gafur’s drug money.
Kalitin cites the “second Uzbek case,” an early 1990s criminal case against the
sons of former Uzbek regional Communist party bosses, including the Chernoys’
spheres of influence in favor of a certain crime boss named Tofik (Tofik Arifov),
who now lives in Turkey and owns the most luxurious hotels of that country.”

RIF International
As we recall, Tevfik Arif founded RIF INTERNATIONAL GROUP, INC on 9 Sept 2002
giving the address c/o Bayrock Group, 725 Fifth Ave 24Th Flr, New York, NY 10022.
As of 2011 one address for RIF International Group Inc. was Salomon &
related companies?
One is a wholesaler in Kyiv that was formed in 1995 and was initially collectively

One company with that name has to do with drilling and thus possibly with the Arif

The Brazilian article says his real name was “Ruslam.” This may be confusing the

The case originates from a matter pending in the US Attorney’s office prior to

He was arrested Oct 16 2001 (a month after 9/11). At his arraignment on Oct 17

308 957, exhibit B, p 24 of complaint
A Turkish journalist wrote in August 2005 that Ukrainian oligarch Rinat Akhmetov
and his close ally Igor Gumenyuk {Ihor Humenyuk], appear to have provided
funds for Tamince and Arif's Rixos hotels, jewelry business etc. in the 1990s.28
(Akhmetov and Gumenyuk were powerful oligarchs of the “Donbass group”
apparently belonged to the Dogan family, who would soon team with Trump
“Who cofounded the Rixos chain is not a secret to anybody,” wrote a user
until he learned from Google that “The owner is Rinat Akhmetov, but whom are
Ukrainian, and a Turk,” with Tamince being the Turk (see 14Dec15report). 30
Akhmetov’s funding of Rixos (above), Fettah Tamince appeared to say that Bilge
owned the Labada Hotel.31 As we have seen, Tevfik Arif’s brothers own Bilge.

Tamince said he had a 25/75 profit sharing arrangement with “Mr. Arif.” [He
uses the Turkish phrase “ArifBey.” Note that in common polite Turkish usage,
people use a person’s first name and the word “Bey” (Mister), but here Tamince
refers to “Mr. Arif,” not “Mr. Tevfik,” which suggests that he has a deferential
business directory entry as owned by Refik and Vakif Arif [see “The Brothers 5
August 2016” report]. According to that entry, it was founded 29 Feb 2000.
[Note that this Bilge was founded just days after Chernoy sold out his

family. It appears to be distinct from the Arifbrothers’ Bilge Tourism Trading Inc. 33
In any case, in this interview Tamince is clearly referring to the Arifbrothers’
company.
Tamince and Arif also cooperated in the jewelry business: Sardis (Sardes) and
Alieu and possibly Lidyo. They apparently brought in $10mln worth of jewelry but
acquitted.
Searches for “Frank Muller” MD reveal that there is an exclusive watch band made
by Franck Muller. One ofthese was auctioned offto raise money for Muscular
Dystrophy (MD), but that occurred in 2007, two years after this interview. 34

However, a Turkish report seemed to say Tamince and Arif partnered in another

The tweet included a picture of a tweet from @Ayla2009 showing the ISIS logo with
a rose (below).
User Anonylox responded with a tweet that seemed to indicate that Ayla2209 had
been suspended:
Who is Anonzeus3? The Twitter bio links to the website ghostsec.info, a counter
terrorism intel group. In an interview with cyber expert Pierluigi Paganini, this user

Who is Anonylox?: Anonylox also retweets pro Putin messages critical of the US
market trader. This Ian also quotes Trump advisor Michael Flynn. Anonylox joined
Twitter in August 2012 and put this for a bio: “This may be the beginning of a new
chapter in an old book. Our society is broken, our keepers are corrupt. We will not
forgive.”
Is this Ayla2209 the same as Ayla Arifova? The Ayla2209 Twitter account in the
screenshot simply has the name “Ayla,” whereas the Ayla2209 Instagram account
has the name “Ayla Arifova.” Therefore the Daesh Ayla could be anybody. However,
it is odd that the Daesh user would choose the same rather obscure number that
Arifova did. Could somebody have been trying to smear the Arif family by

The Turkish raid on the Savarona yacht orgy took place 28 September 2010, the
exact same day that Yuriy Luzhkov was ousted from the Moscow mayoralty.
Coincidence?
This coincidence of dates was pointed out by a financial analyst quoted by Radio
Liberty.
That author theorizes that then president Medvedev hastily fired Luzhkov
because of his ties with Arif and Ismailov, so the yacht scandal would not harm
Russia’s reputation.108
This seems unlikely. Mayor Luzhkov had already been under pressure for at
However, it is worth considering the possibility that Turkish and Russian authorities
part of a one two punch against Luzhkov and his powerful allies?
Could the takedown have been timed to prevent Luzhkov from calling on allies
to defend him? Perhaps allies with armed thugs at their disposal to protect
them literally with their pants down on the yacht would prevent them from
defending Luzhkov.
o Such a scenario is plausible. When Russian law enforcement arrested
Dagestan in 2013, they carried out a military style raid with helicopters
because they feared his allies might forcibly defend the mayor.
o Luzhkov himself “can count on 200,000 loyal “bayonets,” quartered in
It would have been complicated for Turkish and Russian authorities to make
those two dates coincide, because each was preceded by a long period of
