Scandal on Troekurovsky: fans were forbidden to film the grave of Boris Moiseev

“This is arbitrariness!”

Three weeks have passed since the death of Boris Moiseev. The artist found his last refuge at the prestigious Troekurovsky cemetery in Moscow. Moiseev’s grave is guarded around the clock by churchyard staff. For some reason, they forbid his fans to photograph the burial place. The MK correspondents, in order to clarify the situation, went to the cemetery and found out: this is the pure truth!

The grave of Boris Moiseev at the Troekurovsky cemetery is not difficult to find. He rests not far from Boris Grachevsky, Roman Kartsev and Yuri Shatunov. They assure at the cemetery: people come to Moiseev from time to time. For example, Christina Orbakaite visited here the other day.

During his lifetime, Boris perceived the daughter of the prima donna as his own daughter. Unfortunately, Christina was unable to attend the funeral of the artist, as she was in the USA. But, returning to Moscow, the first thing she went to Boris. Near the grave of Moiseev, Orbakaite made a video. She was allowed to shoot, but mere mortals are strictly forbidden to take pictures of the grave. This prohibition is valid from the first day after the burial.

– We wanted to take a photo as a keepsake to show to fans from other cities who cannot come to Moscow. But the guards immediately approached us and asked us to delete all the frames, the singer’s fans complain on the Internet. “Otherwise, they threatened to take me out of the cemetery. We loved Borya very much during his lifetime. And forbidding us to photograph his grave is pure rudeness!

Correspondents “MK” faced the same problem. When our photojournalist took out her camera, the guards came up and demanded to stop filming. The administration of the cemetery told us that photographing the graves of deceased stars is possible only with the permission of their relatives. Like, it is forbidden to shoot not only the last shelter of Moiseev, but also other celebrities. The only exception is Yuri Shatunov. It turned out that the singer’s widow allowed to photograph his grave.

– Relatives of Moiseev did not give such permission, – they told us in the administration of the Troekurovsky cemetery. – Therefore, the leadership strictly ensures that no photo and video filming is carried out at the grave.

Sergei Gorokh, the constant director and chief assistant of Boris, was surprised to learn about what was happening at the grave of Moiseev. He assured “MK”: he did not establish any ban.

“I don’t know how to comment on this situation,” Peas told us. – If I am a close person, then no one asked me anything. I didn’t forbid anything. I don’t see anything wrong with people taking pictures of Boris’s grave.

By the way, nothing criminal happens at the grave of Moiseev. There are fresh flowers, which, apparently, were brought on the day of the funeral. Nearby are wreaths from the Kobzon family, Vladimir Vinokur and other celebrities.

“Now we are already engaged in the creation of a future monument to Boris,” Peas explained. – In the near future we will announce a competition and choose the best option.
