The time has come to tell the readers of Rucriminal.info about the situation that happened and is happening in the traffic police department in the city of Pushkino, Moscow Region.
And so, let's start from the distant 2014, it was at this time that police colonel Rinat Khalilov was appointed head of the Pushkin MU of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, the question immediately arose of appointing his people to key positions, one of them, the position of head of the traffic police. The current head of the traffic police, police colonel Nikolai Gromov, did not fight for a place "under the sun" and retired without much resistance.
Before Khalilov, the question arose of who should be appointed to the vacant position of head of the traffic police; for a long time, service in the internal affairs bodies developed a rule in him that dedicated and not necessarily specialists should be appointed. Such a person was found, a betrayed, a person without education and work experience - the deputy platoon commander of the traffic police for the city of Korolev, Moscow Region - Artem Gerasimov, at that time a police captain.
Here it is necessary to say a separate "THANK YOU" to the head of the Royal traffic police, Sergei Adamov, who gave a "start in life", advised R. Khalilov to the vacant position of his employee.
After his appointment, a large number of employees were dismissed from the internal affairs bodies or transferred to the patrol service and district police officers.
Priorities in the service were set quickly, the main task is to earn money.
According to a Rucriminal.info source, the first thing the new boss started with was the evacuation of improperly parked cars, or rather, a “rollback” from the penalty parking lots where incorrectly parked cars were evacuated, the more traffic police officers move cars to the parking lot, the more the head of the traffic police will receive a rollback. The scheme itself is as old as the world, but it works, and today hundreds and thousands of motorists are forced to pay for the evacuation of their cars to special parking lots, while there is no normally equipped parking space throughout the Moscow Region, there is simply nowhere to leave the car without violating the rules of the road. Having organized the process of evacuating cars, Gerasimov allegedly received from 500 to 700 thousand rubles a month. Of course, he did not take all the money for himself, he shared and gave gifts to senior leaders. But this is not the only "profitable business" that was organized by the new head of the traffic police, at the same time as the evacuation, he appointed his people to the registration and examination department and there the task was simple, to sell thieves license plates and driver's licenses to those who wish. That's another 500 thousand to 1 million rubles a month.
And everything would be fine, but everyone wants money, and his subordinates, seeing that A. Gerasimov enjoys the trust of the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Pushkin District R. Khalilov, decided to increase the number of "those who want to pass the exam and get a driver's license", but most likely it was made with the tacit consent of A. Gerasimov. As always, EVERYONE was killed by greed.
The traffic police department of the Moscow region also understood that A. Gerasimov was under the protection of R. Khalilov, and the chief policeman of the Pushkinsky district himself was well-intentioned with the heads of the regional head office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. And so they preferred not to notice once again what was happening in the Pushkino traffic police. The “business” of the head of the traffic police prospered, Artem lived in a big way, changed expensive cars one after another, preferred BMW cars in the M Sport package, bought apartments and land plots. This way of life could not be ignored by the traffic police department, and gradually A. Gerasimov began to receive requests to help, to repair a car, to buy furniture, and so on. And we must pay tribute to the fact that Artem tried to help everyone, naively counting on the fact that this could be mutual.
But not everyone needed help, someone wanted to participate in his "business projects" on an equal basis with him. Around the same time, the activity of the inspector of the registration department Alexei Gladkov was noticed, who, at the request (instruction) of the head of the control and preventive department of the traffic police department of the Moscow Region, Dmitry Yezhov, was appointed to issue driver's licenses. For those readers of Rucriminal.info who have not encountered this unit, I will explain that the control and preventive department in the traffic police department is something like a department of its own security. Therefore, the request of the head of this department was certainly heard. We have accurate information that calls to the leadership of the traffic police department of Pushkino, the head of the control and preventive department D. Yezhov, made calls for his protege, A. Gladkov, on an ongoing basis and demanded certain privileges for him. And what did he demand - not to interfere with the work of a "promising" employee, that is, not to limit the number of foreign citizens who want to change their national rights to a Russian driver's license. Now everyone understands what the friendship between the inspector of the registration department and the head of the control and preventive department was based on.
More prosaic were relations with the former head of the department of examinations of the traffic police department Vladimir Bak Lykov, he simply sent foreign citizens to the regional traffic police examination units with a request (instruction) to help exchange or obtain a driver's license of the Russian Federation. Subsequently, he retired and took part in criminal cases as a witness.
At some point, the number of people who wanted to become drivers in the examination department of the Pushkin traffic police became so great that they were brought by buses.
In February 2018, R. Khalilov was appointed head of the Mytishchenskoye Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, and Sergei Teregerya took his place. The new head of the MU of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia "Pushkinskoye" did not begin to break the "established foundations", and preferred to leave everything as it is.
But this could not last long, the level of protection that was under R. Khalilov, the new head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs S. Teregerya could not provide, and the operational services had accumulated enough information.
Approximately, in 2019, the FSB became interested in the activities of the examination department of the traffic police of Pushkino, as a result of operational-search activities, the inspector of the registration department of the traffic police of Pushkino A. Gladkov and his accomplices, one of whom was a military sergeant - contract soldier Alimov, were detained. At first, A. Gladkov denied his guilt, but after his arrest and detention in a pre-trial detention center, he realized that D. Yezhov and his other “patrons” would no longer call and would not help, began to cooperate with the investigation. He cooperated in such a way that he received a suspended sentence, and the rest of the accomplices were real. The former head of the exam department, Mikhail Arkharov, shot himself.
A. Gerasimov himself believed that this current situation had nothing to do with him. However, this did not suit the head of the control and preventive department D. Yezhov, after the initiation of a criminal case and the dismissal of A. Gladkov, the streams of "attention" directed to him decreased.
As planned by D. Yezhov, the appointment of new employees in the Pushkin traffic police to the "necessary" positions would resume flows. For A. Gerasimov's complicity, the control and preventive department conducted checks of the Pushkin traffic police department for several months. Then a proposal was received, in order to resolve the current situation and stop inspections by the traffic police department, it is necessary to hire two employees and Artyom agreed. So two Alexei Tolpegin and Krabel appeared in the traffic police department of Pushkino. In the future, A. Tolpegin was to head a separate company of the traffic police, and A. Krabel the department of registration and examination work. Immediately after the appointment, two new employees announced to the staff of the traffic police department that they had been appointed head of the control and preventive department and in order to avoid problems with operational and special services, their orders should be obeyed and carried out. Of course, A. Gerasimov tried to reverse this situation, but it was too late. Everyone around understood that A. Gerasimov had become “toxic” and helping him could negatively affect the careers of those who help him.
Gradually, information about the criminal cases initiated against employees of the traffic police department of Pushkino and the results of inspections were reported to the leadership of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia for the Moscow Region, an opinion was formed that A. Gerasimov was unable to lead the unit. The main task is to remove from office a person who dared to oppose the ideas of the head of the control and preventive department and prevented the proteges from further career advancement.
And they succeeded, at the end of 2021, an extraordinary attestation commission was held based on the results, which decided to demote the head of the Pushkino traffic police department, police lieutenant colonel A. Gerasimov, currently a district police officer in the Ivanteevsky police department.
In the fall of 2021, the issue of replacing the head of the traffic police department was agreed in principle, or rather, the head of the traffic police department, Viktor Kuznetsov, formed an opinion that A. Gerasimov should be removed from this position. The work on the formation of a negative opinion took about a year, constant reports about problems in the Pushkin traffic police and the inability of the head of the traffic police department to correct the situation played their part, the decision was made.
Now it was necessary to come up with a “combination” with the appointment of the right person to the position of head of the traffic police department, for this, the head of the department was offered candidates who, for some reason, were not passing or the candidates themselves categorically refused the proposed position and, according to our information, there were at least five of them people, they all refused the proposed position of the head of the traffic police Pushkino. As a rule, these were employees who saw other prospects and understood how serious and disastrous the situation was in the traffic police department of Pushkino. At the same time, it was necessary to look for and offer the head of the traffic police department such candidates who would refuse the proposed position one hundred percent. It was necessary to create the appearance that it was impossible to find a leader for this position.
And when the fake "potential" candidates refused, the head of the department was offered candida tour of Police Major Sergei Popovich, part-time best friend of the head of the control and preventive department D. Yezhov.
As the saying goes: "Nothing personal, just business."
Since May 2022, a new stage has begun in the service and life of the employees of the Pushkino traffic police department, Police Major S. Popovich has been appointed to the post of chief. As they say: "Life is new, but problems are old."
