Still teachers say that Dmitry Shumkov looked is more senior than the years.

Teachers and Dima's friends unanimously speak - the boy resembled mother, Lyubov Nikolaevna. She worked as the cook, then the supply manager. Brought up not that strictly, but did not give to descent.

1992-1999: Work in prosecutor's office, the master's thesis

In 1992 — 1999 D.V. Shumkov worked in prosecutor's office of Udmurtia. In 24 years he becomes the senior assistant of Victor Pokhodin heading prosecutor's office of Udmurtia from 1983 to 2000, is responsible for communications with public authorities, mass media, public organizations, resolves organizational issues. In 25 years he is already the colonel of justice. In assistants to the prosecutor of the Udmurt Republic accepted he, according to one of versions, the influential uncle, mother's brother Dmitry Styran who was allegedly belonging to the clan controlling the oil sphere of the region^[1].

If to trust the Izhevsk press, for the first time popularity, still regional, Dmitry Shumkov found in the mid-nineties, being a senior of the group investigating a high-profile case in which police officers – case of assaults on drivers were based on Glazovskaya Route. Colleagues from his investigation team strongly took offense at it then: they made all work, but Shumkov who sent case to court became the hero of the local press. Approximately also he skimmed off the cream, participating in another high-profile case – investigation of cruel murder of the Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs of Udmurtia, the chief of criminal militia, the colonel Nikolay Perevoshchikov and members of his family made on the night of October 9, 1994.

Capital media for the first time mentioned a name of Shumkov in November, 1997 in connection with one more resonant matter in Izhevsk. There then the trial of 22-year-old Yury Artamonov took place: being represented by the plumber, it got to apartments of elderly women and killed them with the axe, all on its account there were 21 documentary murders. Dmitry Shumkov in that court represented public prosecution, he demanded the death penalty for Artamonov and achieved his removal. However in Russia the moratorium on the death penalty was already imposed, and since September, 1996 it was not applied what the prosecutor, certainly, perfectly knew about.

As it appears from posthumous Izhevsk publications about Shumkov, colleagues investigators from republican prosecutor's office treated him frostily and is even negative, including him the "criminal" boy to whom actively did career at their expense: approximately a month before end of investigation on some resonant and perspective case the person heading the investigation team accurately was removed by the administration aside, and on its place Shumkov who got "pies and donuts" when case went to court was put. Then its began to turn on in the investigation teams of the Prosecutor General's Office sent to the republic.

At that time it was hardly possible to call him the practicing lawyer. Communication with media belonged to its duties.

- On it already then it was visible that he from those people who achieve the objectives, despite everything, - told the close acquaintance of Dmitry who asked not to mention his name in the newspaper. - Shumkov, certainly, careerist. And vainglorious and very ambitious. In Izhevsk to it it was close, he dreamed to work in Moscow. I do not exaggerate, he saw himself if not at the head of our state, then at the head of Udmurtia precisely.

In addition to Victor Pogodin powerful strings to him were pulled by Alexander Zvyagintsev, in 1993-2000 – the chief of the center of information and public relations of the Prosecutor General's Office of Russia, and since 2000 the Deputy Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation. On December 25, 2015 (in three weeks after Shumkov's death) on representation of the president the Federation Council dismissed Zvyagintsev.

1999: Foundation of Pravokom company

In 1999 founded the Pravokom law company performing legal support of activity of leading enterprises of fuel and energy complex and the industry.

1999 - the master's thesis on the subject "The System of Public Authorities of the Republics — Territorial Subjects of the Russian Federation".

2000: Reshalshchik

At the beginning of the 2000th actively cooperated with Anatoly Chubais who then ran RAO UES of Russia.

- As it is represented, Shumkov was an important reshalshchik, - one of the famous economists told KP. - Actively used the communications in official circles to lobby the interests of large customers businessmen. Therefore now (after death) all also deny the acquaintance to it.

According to Kommersant, since 2001 Shumkov invested means in developer projects.

2002 — the doctoral dissertation on the subject "Social Legal Basis of the State Sovereignty of the Russian Federation". The scientific consultant — Dzhangir Abbasovich Kerimov, the corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Shumkov does attempt to be engaged in public policy, enters the Union of Right Forces (Union of Right Forces), in the 2003rd he already heads regional office of a batch and stands for the State Duma on the single-candidate district. But on December elections of 2003 Shumkov gained only 13.85 percent of votes and did not go to the Duma.

Also on elections he headed the list of a batch Union of Right Forces at State Duma elections. But the batch lost, its actions and actions turned out a complete fiasco. Despite it, communications in the liberal political circles helped to attract money to the region. For example, the known Museum exhibition complex of Kalashnikov was completed thanks to participation of high friends. Money as speak, then, at the beginning of the 2000th, Anatoly Chubais gave.

Legal group represented the interests of the leading Russian companies - Sberbank, Gazprom, Rossiyskiye tekhnologii Group.

Of course, Legal group is obliged by such preferences, first of all, to participation in its activity of Oleg Kutafin, the most authoritative Russian lawyer, the complete cavalier of the Order "For Merit to the Fatherland", the rector of the Moscow state legal academy which after his death in 2008 began to bear his name. This name opened doors in any offices, and Dmitry Shumkov skillfully used it.

2014

The redemption of a share of Moscow at Olympic Stadium

In May, 2014 it became known that Shumkov became the owner of a controlling stake of JSC Sports Complex Olimpiysky. Its investments into purchase of a share in Olympic and the subsequent reconstruction of a complex are estimated almost at 10 billion rub^[2].

In May, 2014 little-known Neftegazprod Ltd was announced by the winner in biddings at which 64% of stocks of Olympic Stadium belonging to Moscow were on sale. In SK the company agreed to pay for control to the Government of Moscow 4.67 billion rubles.

Who stands behind the new owner of Olympic, it was unknown. Sources of Kommersant and Vedomosti told that the buyer acts for the benefit of Moussa Bazhaev, the co-owner of the Alliance Oil oil company. But later at a meeting of the Mayor of Moscow Sergey Sobyanin with Club of investors as the new owner of Olympic Dmitry Shumkov was provided.

Shumkov said that Neftegazprod Ltd is controlled by its RPPO investment fund, Prime agency reported. Commenting on purchase of Olympic, he told that he would like to create an analog of the New York Madisson Square Garden in Moscow. As the new owner he promised to reduce a share of concerts in Olympic and also to close retail in the territory of a complex.

He promised to begin reconstruction of a complex with fall of 2014, and the general amount of investments into the project estimated at 5 billion rubles.

Shumkov did not tell journalists about a financing source of the transaction and the planned reconstruction of Olympic. Whether Bazhaev - unclear will participate in the project (his representative refused comments). Shumkov recognized that he is well familiar with the entrepreneur. And Vedomosti with reference to Shumkov reported that he even is a co-owner in a number of Bazhaev's assets, including Russian Platinum company and some assets of Alliance Oil.

The redemption of the building on Varvarka for 3.4 billion rub

Dmitry Shumkov in 2014 redeemed from the Government of Moscow the building of 21,000 sq.m on Varvarka for astronomical 3.4 billion rubles. In a year before Rosimushchestvo transferred this building Moscow. According to statements of the Moscow authorities, these projects will allow to pay back costs for creation of the project of the Zaryadye park.

The objects belonging to Dmitry Shumkov near the Kremlin and future landscape Zaryadye park, he was going to reconstruct according to the architectural concept of the unique park, having made them, thus, a part of the grandiose project. Large-scale reconstruction of buildings in Kitaigorodsky Drive and on Varvarka Street provides implementation including a wide number of cultural and social initiatives.

He wanted to turn an asset into 5-star hotel on 320 numbers and about 50,000 sq.m. Investments into the project were estimated approximately at 300 million dollars.

Moreover, as the operator of hotel Dorchester Collection (the sovereign fund of a sultanate possesses Brunei of Brunei Investment Agency), Oetker Collection and the Chinese Mandarin Oriental were considered.

It was supposed that already functioning Stena cultural center will become the unique platform combining in itself scientific and educational and educational functions and also extensive opportunities for holding public actions. Here, in particular, opening of a number of museum projects – EMPI (the ethnographic museum of primary arts and the cultures of the people of Russia), virtual museum of fortification "Stena of Russia", the exposure devoted to the history of the oldest Moscow district of Zaryadye and so forth is planned.

In hotel complex it was going to open the modern media center, the library of the Jewish literature and exposure devoted to creation of the first full-length film by S. Eisenstein Strike shot in Kitaigorodsky Drive. All these objects had to become nodal function points built on site the demolished Russia hotel of the unique natural Zaryadye park, without breaking at the same time its complete landscape composition.

Mister Shumkov actively advertized the construction assets before foreign public. For example, in July, 2015 he gave charitable party (in fact, too PR-action) during which he managed to provide the project to Zaryadye to the German princess and the adviser to the princess of Monaco Corinna tsu Sayn-Wittgenstein.

Further with Zaryadyem problems began. The project was actively opposed by representatives of social movement "ArchNadzor". As affirms as their statement, the project of construction of the Multifunction complex with hotel on Varvarka, 14 provided in October "means threat of demolition of the last houses which remained from old Zaryadya: the profitable house of Persits, the house of the Yakor Insurance company and the house of a partnership Conductor (are integrated as building 1)". These buildings are located in borders of a security zone of the Kremlin as ensemble of federal importance.

- We really addressed the city authorities and collected signatures under the appeal which that week was sent to the president, - the coordinator of ArchNadzor Sergey Klychkov reported to KP^[3]. - So far the situation is not clear. That party says that they will not demolish the building, will reconstruct. But are going to save two walls from one of three houses. In our opinion, it is not reconstruction, but demolition.

There is a version that because of problems with defenders of historical appearance of Moscow the cost of construction could increase considerably.

There is also one more version - Shumkov because of crisis did not manage to beat out the state credits under construction Zaryadya which he expected.

2015

Attempt to receive a share in the Norilsk-1 field

In June, 2015 the Mikhaylov and Partners agency reported that Dmitry Shumkov, "the partner of family of Bazhaev in raw projects, offered for sale the share in one of key company assets "The Russian platinum' — the southern part of Norilsk-1 field". Mister Shumkov "always considered investment into Norilsk-1 as portfolio", says, and sale of a share will allow it "be focused on development of projects in the field of IT and real estate", in particular on construction of the multifunctional Zaryadye complex.

Field reserves Norilsk-1 — 851.3 thousand tons of nickel and 1.2 million tons of copper, contain cobalt, platinoids and copper. JSC Artel of Gold Prospectors Amur entering into the Russian Platinum group in 2012 bypassed Norilsk Nickel at tender, having promised to invest 78 billion rubles in the project and having paid 4.9 billion rubles. But the company waited for the license nearly a year, disputing in courts of a claim of Norilsk Nickel and officials.

The representative of mister Shumkov told that that cannot disclose details owing to the confidentiality agreement.

As Dmitry Shumkov's share in Norilsk-1 was issued, it is unknown. Amur for 90.5% belonged at this time to Russkaya platina LLC, owners of other packet did not reveal. Russkaya platina, according to SPARK base and the Cyprian register, for 100% is under control of the Jersey Russian Platinum PLC (directly owns 1.09%, other share — through the Cyprian Amur Platinum Ltd). Beneficiaries of Russian Platinum PLC do not reveal, but in 2012 Russkaya platina called the president of the Alliance group Moussa Bazhaev "major shareholder". In 2014 Neftegazprod Ltd took 64% of shares of JSC Sport Center Olimpiysky for the benefit of Bazhaev' family, told sources of "Kommersant', but was reported later that the owner of joint stock company is mister Shumkov. He said to Vedomosti that he is "a close friend and Moussa Bazhaev's partner in "Russkaya platina' and other projects", mister Bazhaev confirmed it.

But the source of "Kommersant' close to "The Russian platinum" insists that Dmitry Shumkov "has no shares in assets of group". "Till summer of 2014 Bazhaev and Shumkov cooperated, but it was a subject of oral arrangements" — he explains, without disclosing details of arrangements and the reasons of the termination of the relations. Interlocutors of "Kommersant' in the market assure that mister Shumkov positions himself as person, "having communications in the Kremlin". But they did not hear about that he at the same time interceded for Bazhaev' family or participated in large deals — neither across Norilsk-1, nor on sale of the oil business of Eduard Khudaynatov's NOC by Alliance.

The managing partner of the company "Kulkov, Kolotilov and partners" Maxim Kulkov notes that if partnership was under construction on oral arrangements, then mister Shumkov almost has no chances to prove the relation to business of family of Bazhaev in the Russian courts which are guided first of all by documentary evidences. Chances and abroad are extremely small, it continues: Boris Berezovsky's losses in disputes with Roman Abramovich and Vasily Anisimov in London showed that "all Russian "ponyatiyka' of the 1990th years does not convince judges"^[4].

Participation in the transaction on change of owners in MSK-IX

For August, 2014 Shumkov through "Center of Technologies of Interaction of Networks" (CTIN) company owned the blocking packet in "Moskovskiyinternetexchange" (MSK-IX). Through the same company owned the blocking packet in Ngenix company - the leader of the Russian market of CDN.

At the beginning of 2015 Rostelecom purchased Safedata together with CNIT, having increased at the same time to a control share of CNIT in MSK-IX and Ngenix. Total amount of the transaction was 1.8 billion rubles. The source close to MSK-IX told CNews that Shumkov acted in this transaction only within the nominee holder - his service as lawyer were necessary for implementation of the transaction^[5].

For August, 2015:

• chairman of the board of "Center of legal initiatives",
• professor of department of Public administration and legal support of the public and municipal service Academies of National Economy and public service under the President of the Russian Federation (RANEPA),
• research supervisor of Institute of the power right of the Moscow state legal academy of O.E. Kutafin (MGYuA),
• member of Presidium of the Association of Lawyers of Russia (ALR),
• the commission chairman on legal regulation in the field of power of Association of lawyers of Russia,
• the member of scientific and advisory council at the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation,

In 2015 all winners of Russian national team on the Greek-Roman, free-style and female wrestling at the First European Games in Baku won monetary prizes from Dmitry Shumkov's Fund.

In September, 2015 Dmitry Shumkov together with the museum of Moscow and a complex of urban policy and city building of Moscow organized a series of the free excursions "A travel across Zaryadyyu" dated for Knowledge Day and the City Day.

The Olympic champion Tatyana Navka became the guide. Let's remind, the woman officially became on August 1, 2015 the wife of the Russian President's Press Secretary Vladimir Putin – Dmitry Peskov. And the fact that Shumkov could attract Navka, says that the businessman had a contact to the most influential people of the country.

In the spring of 2015 it was delayed at taking of a bribe in 5 million rubles Andrey Arkhangelsky, the head of department of construction of Mosinzhproekt - the general contractor of construction Zaryadya.

Together with Shumkov also the name of the chief of the department of construction of Mosinzhproekt joint-stock company Andrey Arkhangelsky who in April, 2015 was delayed at taking of a bribe in 5 million rubles was told.

Perhaps, this accidental coincidence, but on December 3, 2015 pronounced to Andrey Arkhangelsky a sentence (3 and a half years of imprisonment and payment of a penalty in the amount of 50 million rubles), and next day, on December 4, found Dmitry Shumkov in a loop.

Suicide

On December 4, 2015 Dmitry Shumkov committed suicide in a tower Federation in apartments "Moscow City". On preliminary conclusions of the investigation, death was caused by suicide, by hanging. The corpse was detected by the security guard in wardrobe personal apartments of the businessman in a tower Federation in Moscow City, presumably in 5 hours after death which followed as a result of asphyxia (it was found hung up on ties). On December 5, 2015 the IC RF announced conducting investigation verification on case.

The mysterious death of Dmitry Shumkov matched one more, much more resonant, than a sentence Arkhangelsk, an event: issue of investigation of activity of the Prosecutor General Chaika and his gifted sons. The version according to which Shumkov who had good communications and extensive "insider" in the State Office of Public Prosecutor "merged" to rassledovatel from Alexei Navalny's team a deafening compromising evidence was discussed. For as was "punished". However, this version has no documentary confirmations.

— Suicide did not match it in any way — the Former prefect of the Northern district of Moscow Oleg Mitvol of Sobesednik.ru told. — He was the idler, the fan of life. Lived in style. Therefore when two weeks ago I met it by chance, was surprised: it was gray, dejected though answered the question "How Are You Doing?" "Normally". And it was visible on it what is not normal. Having learned about his death, I went in it at once home where he lived with the spouse and the son — Mitvol says. — According to the wife, Dmitry at the housemaid told two weeks ago that he wants to die. Therefore I incline to the version of suicide as it is difficult for me to believe in it. And, frankly speaking, Federation with its protection and cameras is not the best place for murder. Though it is suspicious that it became clear later that a part of cameras as it at us often happens, just at that moment and did not work...^[6]

On December 9, 2015, Shumkov's body was cremated – at the request of the family of the dead that it is possible to bylozakhoronit ashes in its native Sarapul (Udmurtia). However already for other day, on December 10, ashes were buried in Moscow. Shumkov at the Kuntsevo cemetery was buried. One Izhevsk website reported that at a funeral there were about 100 people and there saw "the man similar to Dmitry Peskov, the Russian President's Press Secretary".

2016: Section of inheritance

After Dmitry Shumkov's death his successors – Lyubov, Alexander and Elena Shumkovy left the list of owners of Multifunction Complex Varvarka, 14, str. 1, 2 LLC (IFC) which possesses the rights to the project.

And "Kiyevskaya Square" of Year of Nisanov and Zarakh Iliyev caught an asset. They possess 87% of shares in IFC. 13% of shares in IFC, according to the USRLE, remained with Artem Dyumin, the CEO of sport center Olympic. Reported to The New Times in February, 2016 that Artem Dyumin is a younger brother of the governor of Tula region Alexey Dyumin, the ex-security guard Vladimir Putin who is considered his friend. Dyumin was the officer of protection in the Presidential Security Service during the previous presidency of Vladimir Putin since August 9, 1999. And in 2007 when Victor Zubkov was appointed the Prime Minister, Dyumin became the chief of his protection. It is interesting that when the government was headed by Vladimir Putin, Dyumin became the personal aide-de-camp of the Prime Minister. During some period along with work as the aide-de-camp Dyumin began to combine a position of the head of department of SBP — the staff of this division was bodyguard of Putin.

Most it is interesting, Dyumin developed and performed operation on the emergency evacuation to Russia of the president of Ukraine Victor Yanukovych on the night of February 23, 2014.

It was reported that for September, 2016 the complex is under control of structure of the ex-partner Shumkov, the owner of the Alliance group and "The Russian platinum" Moussa Bazhaev.
