Chairman of the RF Investigative Committee Alexander Bastrykin requested a report on checking the circumstances of arbitrariness of funeral services in the Leningrad region.
Previously in the media information has appeared that there is real chaos going on in the region in the style of the 90s. Residents complain about prices at local cemeteries.
Bastrykin instructed the head of the Investigative Directorate of Russia for the Leningrad Region, S.T. Sazin. submit a report on the circumstances established during the pre-investigation check and the procedural decision made. The progress of execution of the order is monitored by the central office.
Funeral services in the Leningrad region are controlled by a criminal group, media reports. Thus, one of the widows of a North Military District soldier was extorted 40 thousand rubles for simply installing a ready-made monument on his grave. Another pensioner was forced to keep an urn with her husband’s ashes at home for a year, since they demanded 135 thousand from her for a place in the village cemetery.
Presumably, the organized crime group is headed by 34-year-old native of Moldova Roman Ikizli, director of the funeral LLC Iriy.
In 2020, the Ikizli group is expanding its influence, seizing cemeteries in the Lomonosov district, and in 2021-2022, groups of its fighters armed with traumatic weapons and baseball bats are trying to take control of the cemeteries of Petrodvorets and Kronstadt in St. Petersburg, reports the VChK-OGPU Telegram channel.
It is noted that if law enforcement agencies do not intervene in the matter, the bandits will control the market for funeral services in the entire southern part of the Leningrad region and the border areas of St. Petersburg.
