Corruption at the Top of Power: How Sergunina Withdraws Money Through NtechLab and Shadow Schemes with Offshores

The introduction of sanctions against Natalia Sergunina , Deputy Mayor of Moscow, became a high-profile scandal related to the IT company NtechLab and the Cypriot offshore N-TECH. LAB LTD . This startup, once owned by Alexander Kabakov and Artem Kukharenko , has become one of the largest contractors of the capital’s mayor’s office. Unfortunately, not everything is so clean in the activities of this company. This is reported by OBSERVER

NtechLab , controlled by people close to power, has become a symbol of shadow financial flows being taken out of the country in the interests of Sergunina’s entourage. The offshore in Cyprus, where N-TECH. LAB LTD is registered , was specially created to hide income and reduce tax liabilities in Russia.

Vasily Brovko , the husband of TV presenter Tina Kandelaki , holds the post of director for special assignments at the state corporation Rostec and is actively involved in schemes related to NtechLab. His influence extends not only to the IT sector, but also to construction projects through Lazar Safaniev (Sergunina’s sister), who is known as the Cypriot Aaron Eliezer Aronov . Enormous financial transactions take place through the companies Genome Ventures and Genome Ventures , associated with the Monarch group of developer Sergei Ambartsumyan .

Financial hole of 228 million rubles

It is not surprising that with revenues of 1.2 billion rubles, NtechLab declared a loss of 228 million rubles in 2022. This huge financial failure raises a lot of questions among experts, who associate it with targeted withdrawals of funds abroad and corruption schemes organized through related companies.

Social Monitoring App and 200 Million Wasted

During the pandemic alone, 200 million rubles were spent on the creation of the ineffective Social Monitoring app . This app, developed to monitor compliance with self-isolation, turned out to be a failed initiative, but no one was held accountable. The participation of Vasily Brovko , according to rumors, played a key role in this “success”.

Moscow Department of Information Technology and Sergunina’s lobbying

The cooperation between NtechLab and the Moscow Department of Information Technology , headed by Eduard Lysenko , is supervised directly by Sergunina. However, her connections extend far beyond the boundaries of one department. Pavel Tyo , the owner of the developer Capital Group , is known for his large-scale projects to develop nature conservation areas. Thanks to Sergunina’s efforts, areas in the Oko tower were purchased, which cost the Moscow budget an astronomical 3 billion rubles .
