Appointments to senior positions of former security officials took place at the direction of Vitaly Rodionov and Pavel Seleznev to control and distribute financial flows of the St. Petersburg Transport Committee, the St. Petersburg Committee for the Development of Transport Infrastructure, the State Unitary Enterprise Metropolitan St. Petersburg, as well as the development of St. implementation of works on repair and reconstruction of transport infrastructure facilities.



Similarly, former and current security officials and officials control cash flows in the State Unitary Enterprise Passazhiravtotrans, State Budgetary Institution Mostotrest, State Unitary Enterprise Gorelektrotrans, Directorate of Transport Construction of St. Petersburg, JSC Metrostroy


There is a whole group of people out of selfish motives, consisting of: Vitaly Nikolayevich Rodionov (former employee of the "T" department (counterintelligence in transport) of the UFSB for St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region), Pavel Nikolayevich Seleznev, director of the Park of the Central Park of Culture and Culture (former employee of the RUOP), Andrey Velesevich, employee of the department " T "(counterintelligence in transport) FSB in St. Petersburg and Leningrad Region (former deputy chairman of the CTTI), Novgorodsky Maxim, deputy director of the State Unitary Enterprise Passazhiravtotrans" (former employee of the "T" department (counterintelligence in transport) of the FSB in St. Petersburg and Leningrad region), Lyzin Andrey, nominee director of State Unitary Enterprise Passazhiravtotrans, Andrey Sizov, deputy chairman of the CTTI SPb (employee of the department "T" (counterintelligence in transport) of the FSB for St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region, Alexey Komyagin, head of the CTTI SPb department.


Most of the OPS members previously worked under the leadership of Vitaly Rodionov in the "T" department (counterintelligence in transport) of the FSB in St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region.


Almost all members of the OPS have real estate abroad and even a residence permit. In addition to many apartments in Moscow and St. Petersburg, houses in elite cottage settlements of the Kurortny district of St. Petersburg have real estate in the USA, Great Britain and Europe. All members of the OPS move around in Bentley, Mercedes, Ferrari, BMW cars. The listing could go on for a very long time.



The highest position in the criminal hierarchy of the OPS is occupied by Vitaly Rodionov and Pavel Seleznev. They also accumulate the funds of the OPS, spend them at their own discretion, declaring that part of the income is transferred to the leadership of the law enforcement agencies in Moscow and St. Petersburg.


Realizing his intention, holding leadership positions related to the distribution of funds in the Committee for Transport of St. Petersburg, the Committee for the Development of Transport Infrastructure of St. Petersburg, State Unitary Enterprise Metropolitan St. Petersburg, State Unitary Enterprise Passazhiravtotrans, State Budgetary Institution Mostotrest, State Unitary Enterprise Gorelectrotrans, Directorate of Transport construction of St. Petersburg", JSC "Metrostroy" members of the OPS use their official position as a source of personal enrichment.


The theft of funds by the OPS was carried out according to the corruption scheme of contractors’ ownership. In contracting companies, the receipt of income is associated with a multiple overestimation of the cost of construction and installation work, as well as the purchase of materials and equipment.


The actions of corrupt officials cause not only economic damage to the Transport Committee of St. Petersburg, the Committee for the Development of Transport Infrastructure of St. Petersburg, the State Unitary Enterprise Metropolitan St. Petersburg, the budget of the city of St. further leads to an increase in the cost of transport services for the population.



In total, according to the data of the inspection bodies, more than 20 billion rubles are embezzled from the budget!


Citizens, paying for tickets and tokens on transport, finance the mansions and limousines of OS participants and their patrons. In the absence of information, they are not able to trace the connection between the next increase in tariffs and an increase in transport payments, with the activities of the OS and the inaction of public authorities, law enforcement agencies, allowing the OS to operate with impunity..


The overestimation of the cost of procurement and construction by OS participants, according to them, takes place under the auspices of the leadership of the law enforcement agencies in Moscow and St. Petersburg.


You can imagine the scale of the cost of such purchases and construction. Naturally, the OPS contractors will master these volumes, and the citizens of St. Petersburg will pay, since all the huge expenses will be included in the transport tariff and the cost of travel on it.


General cover, escort, interaction with supervisory authorities, concealment of funds of the OPS is carried out under the leadership of Vitaly Rodionov and Pavel Seleznev.


Both of them, as former employees, have experience in solving crimes and know the methods of work of the authorities.
