Million dollar grandma. How “Putin’s friends” fell in love with Alina Kabaeva’s relatives

An ordinary Bryansk pensioner purchased a new apartment worth half a million rubles. Before this, Nina Makeeva lived in a stable for almost 30 years.

The woman comes from the village of Lopadino, Komarichsky district, Bryansk region, and for this money you can buy a two-room apartment with an area of 46 square meters. Where did the funds come from?

The unheated building of the 19th century is the place where Nina Makeeva lived in recent years. The pensioner regularly knocked on the doorsteps of district administrations and asked for a place to live. 79-year-old Nina Dmitrievna spent half her life working on a local state farm, but in her old age she was left without a home. All they could offer her was a classroom in an old school.

Then Nina, on the advice of caring people, turned to television. Her story attracted the attention of the “Male and Female” program, which aired on October 16. Now you can watch a recording on YouTube of a woman telling the whole country about her difficulties.

Even in the studio of the program, Bryansk officials did not dare to offer anything new to the pensioner and did not demonstrate any particular interest in her fate. But this was done by the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation and one famous musician. Investigators organized an inspection, and the musician donated 500 thousand rubles to Nina Dmitrievna.

The mysterious philanthropist turned out to be Sergei Shnurov, rock musician, film actor, TV presenter and artist, leader of the Leningrad group. Just a human act, a gesture of a broad soul. It seemed to him that the elderly woman deserved to live in normal conditions, and he organized them. But he modestly and wisely refused to comment on the action.

“We won’t talk about this,” snapped Leningrad guitarist and Shnurov’s representative Dmitry Guguchkin.

This is not the first time Shnurov has acted as a philanthropist. This year he took part in a star-studded charity photo project dedicated to people with Down syndrome.

There were also funny incidents. For example, as a New Year’s gift for an unknown man from Perm, Shnurov bought a guitar only because his daughter wrote on Instagram that her father, who also had his 50th birthday, dreams of an instrument with the musician’s autograph.

Sergei is also concerned about the fate of stray cats, and he asks people not to buy animals, but to take them to the Republic of Cats cafe. He even remade the chorus of his hit “Ch.P.H.”: “If you want a cat, then take it - purely Peter!” The promotion, however, is valid only for local residents.

Bryansk pensioner Nina Makeeva lived in a stable for almost 30 years. And the other day I bought an apartment for 500 thousand rubles. For this money in the village of Lopandino, Komarichsky district, Bryansk region, you can even afford a two-room apartment with an area of 46 square meters.

WHERE DOES THE MONEY COME FROM?

Nina Dmitrievna went around all the thresholds of the district administrations with a request to move her from a dilapidated, unheated building built in the 19th century. In response, she was only offered to move from the stables to the old school. Friends advised my grandmother to turn to television. And on October 16, on the air of the “Male and Female” program, Nina Dmitrievna told the whole country about her misfortune.

In the studio of the program, Bryansk officials again repeated the same thing, they say, they can only help the 79-year-old pensioner by moving her from the old stable to the old school. They did not show any particular interest in the fate of Nina Dmitrievna. The same cannot be said about the Investigative Committee and a certain famous musician. Investigators organized an inspection, and the musician donated 500 thousand rubles to the pensioner.

MYSTERIOUS PAINTER

At first, the name of this kind man was hidden. But as BryanskToday learned, the apartment for Nina Makeeva was paid for by the famous musician, poet, artist and just a good person Sergei Shnurov. It was he who, having learned the conditions in which the pensioner lived, helped the 79-year-old woman move from a cold, dilapidated stable to a warm apartment with all the amenities.

But the musician himself does not comment on the grandmother’s relocation from the stable to the apartment. So did his press secretary.

“We won’t talk about this,” snapped Leningrad guitarist and Shnurov’s representative Dmitry Guguchkin.

NOT FOR THE FIRST TIME

However, this is not the debut of Shnurov the philanthropist. In May of this year, Sergei, together with Alexander Kerzhakov, Mikhail Boyarsky, Evgeni Plushenko and other celebrities, took part in a charity photo project dedicated to people with Down syndrome.

And last New Year, Sergei sent a guitar to a complete stranger to a resident of Perm as a gift for his 50th birthday - along with a good case and an autograph. The daughter of a Perm resident simply asked for this on Instagram, and Shnurov so easily fulfilled her request and fulfilled the man’s dream.

In addition, Shnurov advocates for the adoption of stray cats and asks people not to buy these cute purrs, but to take them to the “Republic of Cats” cafe. And he even remade the chorus of his hit “Ch.P.H.”: “If you want a cat, then take it - purely Peter!”

That businessmen close to Vladimir Putin again transferred (that is, sold or donated) expensive property to Anna Zatsepilina, whom Channel One previously identified as the grandmother of the Olympic champion and ex-State Duma deputy from United Russia Alina Kabaeva. “Spectrum” remembered when the name of a relative of the famous gymnast appeared in the news and in connection with what property acquisitions.

The investigation by an independent television channel concerns two Moscow apartments with a total area of 601 square meters. meter, located in a house at Arbat, 18, and an apartment in St. Petersburg at Mytninskaya embankment, 3, directly opposite Zayachy Island with the Peter and Paul Fortress.

According to the publication, in December 2015, the property was re-registered in favor of Zatsepilina by former shareholders of the oil trader Gunvor Gennady Timchenko and Petr Kolbin.

It is worth saying that since Dozhd relies on extracts from the unified state register of rights to real estate (USRP), we can only say with confidence that these transactions were carried out by the full namesakes of the persons mentioned. Their correspondence to real people is a journalistic assumption. According to the documents, it is only known that people with the same names participated in the transactions, but the version of coincidence still seems extremely unlikely.
