Before the arrest, director Sobchak spent time in a spicy company

Kirill Sukhanov traveled to Apatity with a young designer

TV presenter Ksenia Sobchak, whose country house is being searched, has confirmed that her commercial director, Kirill Sukhanov, has been detained for extortion. We found out some details about the identity of this person.

It is known about Kirill Sukhanov that he was born in Arkhangelsk, lived for some time in St. Petersburg, then moved to the capital. He worked in the advertising field, is officially listed as the general director of an advertising company, but for more than five years he has been the commercial director of Ksenia Sobchak. The journalist herself represented Cyril as her confidant. Sukhanov often accompanied her to business meetings and social events.

For the first time, media attention to the person of the commercial director turned after he launched the “duck” that his boss was pregnant. But another scandal, which many have now forgotten about, is more famous – these are correspondence with Kirill made public in 2018 by businessman Dmitry Yurchenko. Then the merchant invested more than 3 million rubles in the form of an advance payment in an advertising project with Ksenia Sobchak, and after the tranche, her representative Sukhanov, according to Yurchenko, began to ignore the entrepreneur and actually disappeared. The businessman then filled the Internet with appeals to Sukhanov demanding a refund.

As Sobchak herself now declares, the financial director was engaged in advertising even before the arrest. Kirill’s life, judging by social networks, was not boring: he traveled a lot, added photos in branded clothes and showed off the new Mercedes (according to our data, the car was bought on lease), celebrated his birthday in a big way in the summer – the company walked in a restaurant at Red Square, did not forget family and friends. Surrounded by Sukhanov, we were told that he lived in the Khamovniki district and was close friends with the assistant of a well-known metropolitan restaurateur.

Sukhanov spent the last weekend before his arrest in Apatity together with designer Alexander, a native of the Moscow region. Immediately after the arrest of Sukhanov, he hid his posts about the past weekend, where he posted joint photos with Kirill at a ski resort in Kirovsk.
